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

Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 1 and the murine double minute 2 homolog (MDM2)-p53 interaction are potential therapeutic targets in cancer, and their inhibition has been reported to be more proapoptotic in malignant cells compared to normal cells. We investigated the effect of CDK1 inhibition on p53 signaling after simultaneous dual blockade using the CDK1 inhibitor RO-3306 and the MDM2 inhibitor Nutlin-3 in AML. Treatment of growing AML cells with RO-3306 induced G2/M-phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in a dose- and time-dependent manner. We found that RO-3306 acts cooperatively with Nutlin-3 to induce mitochondrial apoptosis in a cell cycle-independent fashion. RO-3306 downregulated expression of the antiapoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and survivin and blocked p53-mediated induction of p21 and MDM2. CDK1 siRNA experiments showed that reduced CDK1 expression affects p53-induced p21 transactivation. We suggest that RO-3306 actively enhances downstream p53 signaling to promote apoptosis and that a combination strategy aimed at both inhibiting CDK1 and activating p53 signaling is potentially effective in AML, where TP53 mutations are rare and downstream p53 signaling is intact.
