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

EphA2, a receptor tyrosine kinase, is elevated in many invasive human breast cancers, and the majority of EphA2 remains unphosphorylated. The successful attachment of ligand EphrinA1 present on the surface of adjacent cells to EphA2 initiates EphA2 phosphorylation leading to its turnover. In vivo efficacy of various approaches targeting EphA2 for breast cancer therapy is usually evaluated in nude mice bearing human breast cancer xenografts. In order to establish an immunocompetent mouse model of breast cancer for EphA2-targeted therapies, we evaluated a mouse breast cancer cell line (MT1A2) for EphA2 expression and phosphorylation. Overexpression of EphA2 was observed in MT1A2 cells and the majority of it remained unphosphorylated signifying that EphA2 in MT1A2 cells behaved similar to that of human breast cancer cells. Human adenovirus subtype 5 (HAd5) vectors expressing secretory forms of EphrinA1 were used for in vitro and in vivo targeting of MT1A2-derived EphA2. MT1A2 cells infected with HAd-EphrinA1-Fc (HAd expressing extracellular domain of human EphrinA1 attached to Fc portion of human IgG1 heavy chain) induced EphA2 activation and its turnover. This led to inhibition in MT1A2 cell colony formation in soft agar and cell viability in monolayer culture. In addition, MT1A2 cells-infected with HAd-EphrinA1-Fc failed to form tumors in syngeneic FVB/n mice at least 32 days postinoculation. Moreover, intratumoral inoculation of FVB/n mice-bearing MT1A2-induced tumors with HAd-EphrinA1-Fc slowed the tumor growth and also resulted in the development of vector-specific immune response. These results indicate that FVB/n mice-bearing MT1A2-induced tumors could serve as an immunocompetent model of breast cancer for EphA2-targeted therapeutic strategies.
