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

purposeIn the current study, we investigate the activation of antiapoptotic signaling pathways in response to proteasome inhibitor treatment in pancreatic cancer and evaluate the use of concomitant inhibition of these pathways to augment proteasome inhibitor treatment responses. EXPERIMENTAL

designPancreatic cancer cell lines and mouse flank xenografts were treated with proteasome inhibitor alone or in combination with chemotherapeutic compounds (gemcitabine, erlotinib, and bevacizumab), induction of apoptosis and effects on tumor growth were assessed. The effect of bortezomib (a first-generation proteasome inhibitor) and NPI-0052 (a second-generation proteasome inhibitor) treatment on key pancreatic mitogenic and antiapoptotic pathways [epidermal growth factor receptor, extracellular signal-regulated kinase, and phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT] was determined and the ability of inhibitors of these pathways to enhance the effects of proteasome inhibition was assessed in vitro and in vivo.

resultsOur data showed that proteasome inhibitor treatment activates antiapoptotic and mitogenic signaling pathways (epidermal growth factor receptor, extracellular signal-regulated kinase, c-Jun-NH2-kinase, and PI3K/AKT) in pancreatic cancer. Additionally, we found that activation of these pathways impairs tumor response to proteasome inhibitor treatment and inhibition of the c-Jun-NH2-kinase and PI3K/AKT pathways increases the antitumor effects of proteasome inhibitor treatment.

conclusionThese preclinical studies suggest that targeting proteasome inhibitor-induced antiapoptotic signaling pathways in combination with proteasome inhibition may augment treatment response in highly resistant solid organ malignancies. Further evaluation of these novel treatment combinations in clinical trials is warranted.
