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

The therapeutic success of imatinib in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is hampered by persistence of malignant stem cells. We investigated whether nilotinib, a more potent BCR-ABL kinase inhibitor could target CML primitive progenitors more effectively than imatinib. CML and normal progenitor cells were cultured with nilotinib or imatinib in growth factor supplemented medium. Nilotinib inhibited BCR-ABL kinase activity at lower concentrations than imatinib. Nilotinib inhibited mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), AKT and STAT5 phosphorylation in CML CD34(+) cells in the absence of growth factors (GFs), but did not suppress AKT and STAT5 activity, and resulted in increased MAPK activity, in the presence of GFs. Nilotinib and imatinib resulted in similar suppression of CML primitive and committed progenitors in long-term culture-initiating cell and colony-forming cell assays. Inhibition of progenitor growth was related to marked reduction in proliferation, but only a modest increase in apoptosis. Nilotinib did not show increased efficacy in reducing nondividing CML progenitors compared with imatinib. These results indicate that more potent tyrosine kinase inhibitors by themselves will not be more effective in eliminating CML progenitors than imatinib and that additional mechanism required for maintenance of malignant stem cells need to be identified to improve targeting of leukemia stem cells.
