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

Orally administered small molecule receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (RTKIs) are increasingly common treatments for cancer, both alone and in combination with chemotherapy. However, their side effect profiles and the underlying mechanisms of such are not yet fully elucidated. Management of their most common dose limiting side effect, diarrhea, has been hampered by a lack of suitable animal models. We aimed to develop a clinically relevant rat model of RTKI-induced diarrhea that could be utilized for investigating supportive care interventions and pharmacokinetics. Albino Wistar rats were treated daily for 4 weeks with various concentrations of lapatinib to determine the optimal dose for development of diarrhea. This was then followed by an experiment with addition of paclitaxel once weekly for 4 weeks to observe effects of combination drug treatment on diarrhea. Data regarding animal tolerance to the treatment, organ weights, circulating lapatinib concentration and histopathology were collected weekly. Lapatinib caused diarrhea in rats that was dose-dependent. Diarrhea occurred without causing significant intestinal histopathology. Follow up experiments are currently underway to determine the exact pathogenesis and mechanisms of lapatinib-induced diarrhea and potential protective strategies.
