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

Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a malignant disease characterized by expression of p210-BCR-ABL, the product of the Philadelphia chromosome. Survival of CML patients has been significantly improved with the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors that induce long-term hematologic remissions. However, mounting evidence indicates that the use of a single tyrosine kinase inhibitor does not cure this disease due to the persistence of p210-BCR-ABL at the molecular level or the acquired resistance in the stem cell compartment to individual inhibitors. We have recently shown in a murine model that deficiency of the Rho GTPases Rac1 and Rac2 significantly reduces p210-BCR-ABL-mediated proliferation in vitro and myeloproliferative disease in vivo, suggesting Rac as a potential therapeutic target in p210-BCR-ABL-induced disease. This target has been further validated using a first-generation Rac-specific small molecule inhibitor. In this review we describe the role of Rac GTPases in p210-BCR-ABL-induced leukemogenesis and explore the possibility of combinatorial therapies that include tyrosine kinase inhibitor(s) and Rac GTPase inhibitors in the treatment of CML.
