Boosting immune response against cervical cancer: A combined approach using oncolytic virus and targeted therapies.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundCervical cancer remains a primary reason for cancer malignancy among women worldwide, primarily due to human papillomavirus (HPV) strains HPV16 and HPV18. Despite having access to vaccines, there are few treatment options for advanced or recurring cases. This research investigates the possibility of using Newcastle disease virus (NDV) along with Everolimus (EVE) and Beclin-1 (BEC) to improve immune reactions and decrease tumor development in an experimental model of HPV-related cervical cancer.
methodsA mouse model for cervical cancer was created by utilizing HPV16 E6/E7-expressing TC-1 cells in C57BL/6 mice. The mice underwent treatment with NDV, EVE, BEC, or various combinations of these therapies. Tumor progression was monitored, evaluated immune responses by measuring cytokine levels (including IL-4, IFN-γ, and IL-12), and investigated the presence of CD8 + T cells within the tumors. Additionally, survival rates were monitored throughout the study.
resultsThe synergy of NDV, EVE, and BEC led to a remarkable decrease in tumor growth, achieving reductions of as much as 70% when compared to monotherapies. Additionally, our combination therapy elicited strong immune reactions, evidenced by increased concentrations of IL-4, IFN-γ, and IL-12, along with enhanced infiltration of CD8 + T cells into the tumors. Mice that were subjected to this Triple therapy exhibited better survival rates than those in other treatment categories.
conclusionsOur findings highlight the potential to improve outcomes in cervical cancer associated with HPV through a multi-faceted approach incorporating NDV, Everolimus, and Beclin-1. This therapeutic strategy not only hinders tumor growth but also strengthens the immune system's ability to fight against cancer. These results prompt further exploration of this combination in clinical trials, with the goal of offering new treatment avenues for patients who have limited choices.
