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

The hereditary forms of breast cancer identified by BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes have a defect in homologous DNA repair and demonstrate a dependence on alternate DNA repair processes by base excision repair, which requires poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1). siRNA and deletion mutations demonstrate that interference with PARP-1 function results in enhanced cell death when the malignancy has a defect in homologous recombination. These findings resulted in a plethora of agents in clinical trials that interfere with DNA repair, and these agents offer the potential of being more selective in their effects than classic chemotherapeutic drugs. An electronic search of the National Library of Medicine for published articles written in English used the terms "PARP inhibitors" and "breast cancer" to find prospective, retrospective and review articles. Additional searches were done for articles dealing with mechanism of action. A total of 152 articles dealing with breast cancer and PARP inhibition were identified. PARP inhibition not only affects nonhomologous repair, but also has several other nongenomic functions. Mutational resistance to these agents was seen in preclinical studies. To date, PARP-1 inhibitors were shown to enhance cytotoxic effects of some chemotherapy agents. This new class of agents may offer more therapeutic specificity by exploiting a DNA repair defect seen in some human tumors with initial clinical trials demonstrating antitumor activity. Although PARP inhibitors may offer a therapeutic option for selected malignancies, the long-term effects of these agents have not yet been defined.
