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

In vivo targeting of lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells to tumour deposits by bispecific monoclonal antibodies (bimAb) may be a way to improve adoptive immunotherapy. We developed a bimAb against adherent LAK (ALAK) cells and colon tumour CC531 in Wag rats. The bimAb was produced by somatic hybridization of two mouse hybridomas, one producing monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against CD8 (IgG2b, OX8), and the other producing mAb against a CC531-associated antigen (IgG1, CC52). A bimAb-producing clone was selected by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with CC531 tumour cells. BimAb were purified from ascitic fluid by protein A affinity chromatography. Each of five pooled peak fractions was analysed by flow cytometry for the presence of bimAb. Most bimAb were found in a fraction that was eluted at pH 4.5 from protein A. FPLC analysis of this fraction revealed that no parental antibodies were present. The OX8 x CC52 bimAb greatly increased conjugate formation in vitro between ALAK cells and CC531. Results of 51Cr-release assays with CC531 as target cells and ALAK cells as effector cells were not significantly different in the presence or in the absence of the bimAb. The methods we used here, a cell enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and flow cytometry, are simple methods for development and purification of a bimAb when a functional selection method is not a priori available. The OX8 x CC52 bimAb we developed this way may increase in vivo tumour targeting of ALAK cells and thus augment antitumour effect in vivo.
