Preclinical evidence: laboratory or animal findings do not establish effectiveness in people.

Who was studied?

36 female C57BL/6N mice bearing bilateral MC38 tumors.

What does the publication report?

PRaG reduced intratumoral granulocytic suppressor cells and enhanced effector function in draining nodes. Depletion of CD8+ T cells, but not CD4+ T cells, weakened tumor control.

Safety findings

Animal research does not establish human safety.

How should we interpret it?

A mechanistic conference abstract from the same MC38 research program as the Chinese preprint; not independent human efficacy evidence.
