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

purposeBoth heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) and checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) have emerged as novel therapeutic targets. We conducted a phase I study of irinotecan and the Hsp90 inhibitor 17AAG, which can also down-regulate Chk1, in patients with solid tumors. EXPERIMENTAL

designDuring the dose escalation phase, patients received i.v. irinotecan followed by 17AAG once weekly for 2 weeks in a 21-day cycle. At the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), additional patients were enrolled to undergo pre- and post-17AAG tumor biopsies for pharmacodynamic evaluation. The pharmacokinetics of irinotecan, 17AAG, and their metabolites were characterized. Tumor p53 status as determined by immunohistochemistry was correlated with antitumor activity.

resultsTwenty-seven patients with a variety of solid tumors were enrolled. Four patients developed dose-limiting toxicity at dose level 4 (100 mg/m(2) irinotecan and 375 mg/m(2) 17AAG) including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and pulmonary embolism. The pharmacokinetics of 17AAG and its metabolite were not significantly affected by the coadministration of irinotecan, and vice versa. There was no partial response, although tumor shrinkage was observed in six patients. Five of 10 patients with p53-mutant tumor had stable disease as the best response compared with 2 of 6 patients with p53-wildtype tumor (P = 0.63). Evidence for Hsp90 inhibition by 17AAG, resulting in phospho-Chk1 loss, abrogation of the G(2)-M cell cycle checkpoint, and cell death could be shown in tumor biopsy samples obtained at the MTD.

conclusionsThe combination of irinotecan and 17AAG can be given to patients with acceptable toxicity. The recommended phase II dose of the combination is 100 mg/m(2) irinotecan and 300 mg/m(2) 17AAG.
