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

Deregulation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3K)/PDK-l/Akt signaling cascade is associated with pancreatic cancer tumor invasion, angiogenesis, and tumor progression. As such, it has been postulated that PDK-1/Akt signaling inhibitors may hold promise as novel therapeutic agents for pancreatic cancer. Disadvantages of currently available Akt inhibitors include tumor resistance, poor specificity, potential toxicity, and poor bioavailability. Previous studies have demonstrated that OSU-03012, a celecoxib derivative, specifically inhibits PDK-1 mediated phosphorylation of Akt with IC(50) values in the low muM range. Human pancreatic cancer cell lines AsPC-1, BxPC-3, Mia-PaCa 2, and PANC-1 were cultured in media containing varying concentrations of OSU-03012, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and gemcitabine, and changes in Akt phosphorylation and cell viability were evaluated using western blotting and a 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, respectively. Treatment with OSU-03012 resulted in decreased PDK-1-mediated Akt phosphorylation and cell growth inhibition for all cell lines with IC(50) values ranging between 1.0 and 2.5 muM. Resistance to 5-FU and gemcitabine was observed in cell lines AsPC-1 and BxPC-3. Further analyses indicate that OSU-03012 induces both proapoptotic and antiproliferative effects in these cells. Taken together, these data suggest that OSU-03012 has potential value as a novel therapy for pancreatic cancer.
