How is it going now? How long until the editor?

I received a rejection letter one month after submission in December 2021, just like you. The reason given was the same as yours: "However, we have removed this paper from consideration for publication in MTO because we have become aware of image manipulation and duplication in some of your other published papers, as well as retractions and concerns on PubPeer. Since we are not confident in the authenticity and validity of your paper, we have withdrawn your paper from further consideration." They didn't even specify which image, it's so frustrating

Review speed: 2.0 | Submission acceptance rate: 95.0 Emphasized research direction: basic experience sharing: Article accepted on 2022-08-02, timeline as follows: Submission to MT was requested to transfer, agreed to transfer on 2022-02-09, Under Review on 2.23, Under Review on 3.18, Revision on 4.15, Major revision, Revised manuscript on 6.28, with editor; 7.5: under review; 7.12 under review, Decision in Process on 7.15, pre-accept (Revise) on 7.19, submitted after revising the format on 7.27, With Editor on 7.28. The review process is really slow. It's a major revision, but actually with very few changes. Two reviewers, one provided some comments and minor experiments; the other directly said it could be accepted. The revision was very friendly, and it was revised well ahead of the deadline by more than a month. After the revision, it still needs to be submitted to the editor, which is slow, taking 3 weeks for pre-acceptance

This magazine has never replied to the email he sent, and I have also written a reminder letter when the external review reached four months, but they did not reply to me

I sympathize with you, but you should provide detailed original records to support your argument

Experience Sharing: I would like to share the experience of submitting to this journal. After going through a total of 8 months, my paper was pre-accepted but eventually received a rejection email. The reason given was that they found a previously retracted article by the corresponding author, which raised doubts about the authenticity of my article. This guilt-by-association approach is unfair, as the authors of the retracted article and mine are completely different teams. Just because we share the same supervisor, my paper was rejected, and the back-and-forth process took a disgusting 8 months. If you have a history of retracted articles in your manuscript, I advise against submitting to this journal. Below is the final rejection letter:

Dear Dr. Fei,
Thank you for submitting your revised paper. However, we have removed this paper from consideration for publication in MTO because we have become aware of image manipulation and duplication in some of your other published papers, as well as retractions and concerns on PubPeer. Since we are not confident in the authenticity and validity of your paper, we have withdrawn your paper from further consideration.

Best regards,
Yuman Fong, PhD
Editor-in-Chief, Molecular Therapy - Oncolytics

Submission usually takes about 5 to 6 months to be accepted, with major revisions requested after the initial review taking 3 months, and acceptance after revisions taking around half a month. Hopefully this information can be helpful

I wanted to ask you what is the situation with your manuscript? Mine has been with the editor for over a month now, and there hasn't been any updates

(0) 讚！ | 巴蜀友翠

I would like to ask how long your "with editor" status has changed, and what is the next status after "with editor."

How long did your "with editor" status last before submission? Did you ultimately get accepted?

Could you please tell me how to create an "institutional letterhead" for the cover letter of this magazine? My submission was just rejected and they are asking for this

Research focus: tumor experience sharing. It's been almost half a month since submitting to the editor. Is the manuscript still in the editor's hands? Can I request a status update?

The submission has been under review for nearly 6 weeks now. It went under review on November 8th, and the status was updated on December 13th, but it is still under review. I wonder if anyone else has encountered this situation before

I really want to urge submission, but I can't reach anyone. How did you all manage to contact the editor later on?

Can it be expedited? How can I contact their editorial department?

Just wait, it's very slow now. The first review took over 6 months and two reviewers have requested major revisions
