1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Immunotherapy offers promising opportunities to improve immune-mediated control of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), but its success depends on identifying antigens uniquely associated with CML. Protein kinases regulate signaling and protein turnover, influencing which peptides are presented on HLA molecules. Although earlier studies suggested that kinase inhibition can alter immune recognition of cancer cells, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we investigated whether targeting key kinases could reshape the CML immunopeptidome. The pharmacological inhibition of SFK, JNK, and BCR-ABL caused broad remodeling of antigen presentation, affecting the display of 4,000 HLA-I ligands. By integrating immunopeptidomics, phospho-immunopeptidomics, and proteomics, we identified three complementary mechanisms regulating antigen display. Comparing benign hematologic tissues with CML samples revealed about 90 CML-specific peptides that became more prominent after SFK or JNK inhibition. Overall, this work provides a quantitative, multi-omic framework to rationally combine kinase inhibitors with immunotherapy to boost antigen visibility and antileukemic immunity.
