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

Tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has been shown to induce apoptosis in malignant cells while leaving normal cells unharmed, making it a desirable anticancer target. In the present study, metastatic melanoma cell lines were treated with lexatumumab (Human Genome Sciences, Inc.) a high-affinity monoclonal antibody agonistic to TRAIL receptor 2 (DR5). Binding of the antibody to the receptor led to activation of the extrinsic apoptosis pathway in approximately 20% of the treated cells. However, by combining subtoxic concentrations of the protein translation inhibitor anisomycin with lexatumumab, we obtained synergistic effects on cell viability compared with single agent treatment. Even the low doses of anisomycin could inhibit protein synthesis in melanoma cells with up to 30%, which might result in the shift in the levels of the proteins involved in apoptosis. Co-treatment with anisomycin increased activation of caspases and cleavage of the anti-apoptotic protein Livin, leading to formation of truncated p30-Livin α and p28-Livin β proteins with potential pro-apoptotic functions. Furthermore, ansiomcycin treatment decreased levels of antiapototic XIAP. In summary our results suggest that combinational treatment with anicomycin and lexatumumab represents a novel therapeutic strategy in the treatment of melanoma.
