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

background and purpose: Since the efficacy of a single targeted agent in combination with ionizing radiation is limited by putative treatment resistances, a rationally designed triple treatment consisting of an agonistic antibody targeting either TRAIL-R1 (mapatumumab) or TRAIL-R2 (lexatumumab), radiation and an epidermal growth factor receptor-(EGFR-)inhibiting antibody (cetuximab) was tested. MATERIAL AND

methods: Induction of apoptosis after triple treatment was determined in Colo205, HCT116 and FaDu cells by Hoechst 33342 stain. The degree of interaction was determined by isobologram analysis. A knockout variant of HCT116 was used to examine Bax dependence of the triple treatment. The role of Akt/PKB signaling was analyzed using the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002. Clonogenic assays were performed to examine the effect on clonogenic survival of tumor cells.

results: A synergistic effect of radiation, cetuximab and agonistic TRAIL-R antibodies was demonstrated in cell lines derived from colorectal tumors or head-and-neck cancers. The efficacy of this multimodal approach was dependent on Bax and inhibition of Akt/PKB in the cell systems used. The results also show a positive impact on clonogenic cell death in several cell lines.

conclusion: These data suggest that rationally designed multimodal therapy approaches integrating radiation with more than one targeted agent will open new perspectives in radiation oncology.
