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

The complement of tumor cell surface proteins, or "surfaceome", is a rich source of potential immunotherapy targets. To move beyond expression-based target discovery, we previously described "structural surfaceomics," combining crosslinking mass spectrometry (XL-MS) with surface protein biotinylation to identify conformation-selective targets. In our prior work, we applied this method to a single model of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), identifying active integrin beta-2 as a promising target. Here, we expand structural surfaceomics to identify additional immunotherapy targets and surface protein biology across additional models of AML, multiple myeloma, and prostate cancer, as well as donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Utilizing these models and different chemical crosslinkers, we compile an extensive database of 5,209 crosslinks. We characterize both shared and unique crosslink-based features, identifying 1,612 disease model-specific crosslinks, including 212 potentially defining tumor-specific conformations based on distance constraint violations relative to AlphaFold predictions. We further implement a suite of emerging modeling tools to predict tumor-specific protein structures. We probe crosslinking patterns suggesting multiple myeloma-specific CD48 and AML-specific integrin α1/β4 heterodimer conformations. This work establishes a resource for cancer structural biology by implementation of structural surfaceomics. Our findings also point toward more realistic protein design models, potentially enabling systematic detection of targetable cancer-specific epitopes for next-generation immunotherapies.
