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

Overexpression of the Aurora-B kinase correlates with oncogenic transformation and poor prognosis. We evaluated the effects of the bona fide Aurora-B kinase inhibitor AZD1152 on tumor responses to ionizing radiation (IR). When p53(wt) HCT116 and A549 cells were pretreated with AZD1152-HQPA prior to IR, additive effects were observed. Interestingly, more pronounced tumoricidal effects were observed in p53-deficient HCT116 and HT29 cells, as well as A549 cells treated with the p53 inhibitor cyclic pifithrin-alpha. In vivo studies on xenografted mice confirmed enhanced tumor growth delay after the combination of IR plus AZD1152-IR as compared to IR alone. Again, this effect was more pronounced with p53-/- HCT116 and p53-mutant xenografts. The AZD1152-mediated radiosensitization was mimicked by knockdown of Aurora-B with a short interference RNA or by inhibition of Aurora-B by transfection with an inducible kinase-dead Aurora-B. The radiosensitizing effect of AZD1152 was lost in CHK2-/- and 14-3-3-/- HCT116 cells. Altogether, these data indicate that AZD1152 can radiosensitize tumor cell lines in vitro and in vivo, the fact that these effects are exacerbated in p53-deficient cancer cells is of potential interest for further clinical development.
