Directed-Complement Activation as a Novel Immunotherapeutic Approach for HER2-Breast Cancer.
Article in ImmunoTargets and therapy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Purpose: Directing selective complement activation towards tumor cells is an attractive strategy to promote their elimination. We have generated complement-activating multimeric immunotherapeutic complexes (CoMiX), stimulating either the alternative pathway (via Factor H Related protein 4 (FHR4)) or the classical pathway (via triple Fc dimers) on HER2-expressing tumor cells. Methods: We used the C-terminal α-chain multimerizing scaffold of the C4 binding protein (C4bp) to generate CoMiX-FHR4 as well as CoMiX-Fc with 2 different anti-HER2 V Results: CoMiX-FHR4/V Conclusion: We showed here that directed complement activation on tumor cells is an alternative to therapeutic antibodies for future combination therapies upon resistance to standard-of-care treatment.
