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

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the main therapeutic agents used to treat non-small-cell lung cancer patients harboring EGFR-activating mutations. However, most of these patients will eventually develop resistance, 50% of which are due to a secondary mutation at T790M in the EGFR. In this paper, we describe the development of an allele-specific DNAzyme, DzT, that can specifically silence EGFR T790M mutant messenger RNA while leaving wild-type EGFR intact. Allele-specific silencing of EGFR T790M expression and downstream signaling by DzT triggered apoptosis in non-small-cell lung cancer cells harboring this mutant. Adding a cholesterol-triethylene glycol group on the 3'-end of DzT (cDzT) improved drug efficacy, increasing inhibitory effect on cell viability from 46 to 79% in T790M/L858R-harboring H1975(TM/LR) non-small-cell lung cancer cells, without loss of allele specificity. Combined treatment with cDzT and BIBW-2992, a second-generation EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor, synergistically inhibited EGFR downstream signaling and suppressed the growth of xenograft tumors derived from H1975(TM/LR) cells. Collectively, these results indicate that the allele-specific DNAzyme, DzT, may provide an alternative treatment for non-small-cell lung cancer that is capable of overcoming EGFR T790M mutant-based tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance.Molecular Therapy-Nucleic Acids (2014) 3, e150; doi:10.1038/mtna.2014.3; published online 4 March 2014.
