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

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an important adverse event related to deruxtecan-based antibody-drug conjugates (DXd ADCs). Understanding mechanisms and translationally relevant preclinical models remain incompletely defined. Here, we established a reproducible cynomolgus monkey model of DXd ADC-related ILD and performed the first integration of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) extracellular vesicle (EV) proteomics with lung single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). Weekly intravenous administration of a target-nonbinding human IgG1 DXd ADC to cynomolgus monkeys for 12 weeks consistently induced interstitial pneumonitis in all animals, with radiologic abnormalities emerging by Week 6 and progressing thereafter. Longitudinal SomaScan-based proteomic analyses revealed a pronounced and selective increase in differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in BALF-derived EVs from Week 6 onward, exceeding changes observed in plasma or bulk BALF. Gene Ontology analysis showed enrichment of inflammatory, wound repair/regeneration, and extracellular matrix remodeling pathways within the BALF EV compartment. Integration of BALF EV proteomics with lung scRNA-seq demonstrated strong concordance between EV-associated signatures and transcriptional programs in alveolar epithelial, mesenchymal, and immune cell populations. Core injury-associated genes, including FN1, TIMP1, and COL3A1, were broadly upregulated across cell types, along with cell-type-restricted signatures including AT1 cells (BMP4, HMOX2), AT2 cells (CXCL2, SIRPA), fibroblasts (TNC, IGF1), endothelial cells (LCP1, CXCL12), neutrophils (ADAM17), and macrophages (CD84, HAVCR2, CXCL10). Together, this study defines a robust cynomolgus monkey model of DXd ADC-related ILD and identifies BALF EVs as a sensitive, lung-localized molecular readout and a promising translational source of mechanistic insights.
