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

purposeThis study aimed to identify molecular determinants of sensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to anti-insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) therapy. EXPERIMENTAL

designA total of 216 tumor samples were investigated, of which 165 consisted of retrospective analyses of banked tissue and an additional 51 were from patients enrolled in a phase II study of figitumumab, a monoclonal antibody against IGF-IR, in stage IIIb/IV NSCLC. Biomarkers assessed included IGF-IR, epidermal growth factor receptor, IGF-II, IGF-IIR, insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1), IRS-2, vimentin, and E-cadherin. Subcellular localization of IRS-1 and phosphorylation levels of mitogen-activated protein kinase and Akt1 were also analyzed.

resultsIGF-IR was differentially expressed across histologic subtypes (P = 0.04), with highest levels observed in squamous cell tumors. Elevated IGF-IR expression was also observed in a small number of squamous cell tumors responding to chemotherapy combined with figitumumab (P = 0.008). Because no other biomarker/response interaction was observed using classical histologic subtyping, a molecular approach was undertaken to segment NSCLC into mechanism-based subpopulations. Principal component analysis and unsupervised Bayesian clustering identified three NSCLC subsets that resembled the steps of the epithelial to mesenchymal transition: E-cadherin high/IRS-1 low (epithelial-like), E-cadherin intermediate/IRS-1 high (transitional), and E-cadherin low/IRS-1 low (mesenchymal-like). Several markers of the IGF-IR pathway were overexpressed in the transitional subset. Furthermore, a higher response rate to the combination of chemotherapy and figitumumab was observed in transitional tumors (71%) compared with those in the mesenchymal-like subset (32%; P = 0.03). Only one epithelial-like tumor was identified in the phase II study, suggesting that advanced NSCLC has undergone significant dedifferentiation at diagnosis.

conclusionNSCLC comprises molecular subsets with differential sensitivity to IGF-IR inhibition.
