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

BACKGROUND &

aimsTumor-suppressor proteins are inactivated by many different mechanisms, including nuclear exclusion by chromosome region maintenance (CRM)-1. Increased tumor levels of CRM-1 have been correlated with poor prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer, making it a therapeutic target. Selective inhibitors of nuclear export (SINEs) bind to CRM-1 to irreversibly inhibit its ability to export proteins; we investigated a new class of SINEs in pancreatic cancer cells.

methodsWe studied the effects of SINE analogs in a panel of pancreatic cancer cell lines and nontransformed human pancreatic ductal epithelial cells using proliferation, apoptosis, immunoblot, co-immunoprecipitation, small inhibitor RNA, and fluorescence microscopy analyses. The effects of the SINEs also were investigated in mice with subcutaneous and orthotopic tumors.

resultsSINEs (KPT-185, KPT-127, KPT-205, and KPT-227) inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells, but did not affect human pancreatic ductal epithelial cells. The nuclei of cells incubated with KPT-185 accumulated tumor-suppressor proteins (p27, FOXO, p73, and prostate apoptosis response-4 [PAR-4]) and inhibited interactions between CRM-1 and these proteins. Mutations in the region of CRM-1 that bind to SINEs (Cys-528), or small inhibitor RNA knockdown of PAR-4, prevented the ability of KPT-185 to block proliferation and induce apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells. Oral administration of KPT-330 to mice reduced growth of subcutaneous and orthotopic xenograft tumors without major toxicity. Analysis of tumor remnants showed that KPT-330 disrupted the interaction between CRM-1 and PAR-4, activated PAR-4 signaling, and reduced proliferation of tumor cells.

conclusionsWe identified SINEs that inhibit CRM-1 and promote nuclear accumulation of tumor-suppressor proteins in pancreatic cancer cells. Oral administration of the drug to mice reduces growth of xenograft tumors.
