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

backgroundDbait molecules are a new class of DNA repair inhibitors triggering false DNA damage signaling in cancer cells. Dbait has already been shown to be effective in combination with radiotherapy. The aim of this study was to assess the adjuvant impact of Dbait on chemotherapy in vitro and in mouse models of colorectal cancer.

methodsWe assessed DNA repair efficiency over time, in vitro, in human colon adenocarcinoma HT-29 (wild-type KRAS) and HCT-116 (mutated KRAS) cell lines treated with Dbait in combination with 5-fluorouracil and/or camptothecin. Genetically engineered mice spontaneously developing colorectal tumors in the intestines were selected for the evaluation of treatment efficacy.

resultsDbait delayed the repair of DNA damage induced by chemotherapy in vitro. In APC (+/1638N) mutant mice, the combination of Dbait and chemotherapy decreased tumor size more effectively than chemotherapy alone (median size: 3.6 vs. 10.85 mm(2), P < 0.05). In APC (+/1638N)/KRAS ( V12G ) mutant mice, animals treated with a combination of Dbait and chemotherapy survived significantly longer than animals treated by chemotherapy alone (median survival: 210 vs. 194 days, P < 0.05). A quarter of all the animals treated by chemotherapy alone died as rapidly as untreated animals, whereas the first death was delayed by 29 days by the addition of Dbait. No increase in toxicity due to Dbait was observed in either mouse model.

conclusionsThe use of Dbait to inhibit DNA repair may be an effective additional treatment for increasing the efficacy of chemotherapy in colon or rectal cancer, independently of KRAS status.
