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

backgroundCheckpoint blockade (CPB) has limited efficacy in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), warranting improved therapeutic strategies capable of remodeling the tumor microenvironment. Stem-like TCF1

methodsWe evaluated the combination of αPD-1, the class I histone deacetylase inhibitor entinostat, and the IL-15 superagonist N-803 in CPB-resistant murine CRC and breast cancer models with varying antigen presentation deficiencies. Proteomic, transcriptomic, spatial, and functional analyses were completed to identify treatment-specific immune remodeling. Translational relevance was assessed using publicly available CPB-treated cancer genomic datasets and functional assays with patient-derived peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).

resultsTriple therapy increased stem-like TCF1

conclusionsTreatment with entinostat, N-803, and αPD-1 boosts anti-tumor intratumoral immune niches comprising TCF1
