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

T lymphocytes generally fail to recognize human colon carcinomas, suggesting that the tumour is beyond reach of immunotherapy. Bacterial superantigens are the most potent known activators of human T lymphocytes and induce T cell cytotoxicity and cytokine production. In order to develop a T-cell-based therapy for colon cancer, the superantigen staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) was given tumour reactivity by genetic fusion with a Fab fragment of the monoclonal antibody C242 reacting with human colon carcinomas. The C242Fab-SEA fusion protein targeted SEA-reactive T cells against MHC-class-II-negative human colon carcinoma cells in vitro at nanomolar concentrations. Treatment of disseminated human colon carcinomas growing in humanized SCID mice resulted in marked inhibition of tumour growth and the apparent cure of the animals. Therapeutic efficiency was dependent on the tumour specificity of the fusion protein and human T cells. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated massive infiltration of human T cells in C242Fab-SEA-treated tumours. The results merit further evaluation of C242Fab-SEA fusion proteins as immunotherapy in patients suffering from colon carcinoma.
