A combined radio-immunotherapy regimen eradicates late-stage tumors in mice.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Background: The majority of experimental approaches for cancer immunotherapy are tested against relatively small tumors in tumor-bearing mice, because in most cases advanced cancers are resistant to the treatments. In this study, we asked if even late-stage mouse tumors can be eradicated by a rationally designed combined radio-immunotherapy (CRI) regimen. Methods: CRI consisted of local radiotherapy, intratumoral IL-12, slow-release systemic IL-2 and anti- CTLA-4 antibody. Therapeutic effects of CRI against several weakly immunogenic and immunogenic mouse tumors including B78 melanoma, MC38 and CT26 colon carcinomas and 9464D neuroblastoma were evaluated. Immune cell depletion and flow cytometric analysis were performed to determine the mechanisms of the antitumor effects. Results: Tumors with volumes of 2,000 mm Conclusions: These findings underscore that rationally designed combination immunotherapy regimens can be effective even against large, late-stage tumors.
