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 microenvironment in solid tumors represents an immunosuppressive therapeutic barrier to CAR T cell therapy, and it is currently unknown whether it can be reshaped by the deletion of negative regulators in CAR T cells. To address this knowledge gap, we evaluated the intrinsic and extrinsic effects of deleting the negative regulator Regnase-1 (Reg-1) in B7-H3-CAR T cells for the immunotherapy of osteosarcoma. Reg-1 knockout (KO) improved the antitumor activity of human and murine B7-H3-CAR T cells in vivo. In immune-competent models, Reg-1 KO also endowed murine B7-H3-CAR T cells with the ability to create a proinflammatory landscape characterized by an influx of interferon gamma (IFN-γ)-producing endogenous T cells and natural killer (NK) cells and a reduction of inhibitory myeloid cells, including M2-like macrophages. Thus, deleting Reg-1 has cell- and non-cell-autonomous benefits, nominating Reg-1 KO B7-H3-CAR T cells as a promising cell product for early-phase clinical testing in patients with solid tumors.
