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

objectiveThis study aimed to explore the antitumour effect of the DNA repair inhibitor, DT01 (the cholesterol conjugated form of Dbait), as an adjunct treatment to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in pre-clinical models of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

methodsA rabbit model bearing liver tumours was either left untreated or treated with TACE or with a combination of TACE+DT01. Tumour growth was monitored by ultrasound. These results were further confirmed in mice grafted with an intrahepatic human HCC model treated with doxorubicin (DOX) alone or DOX+DT01.

resultsThe combination of DT01 with TACE in a rabbit liver model led to a significant decrease in tumour volume (p=0.03). Colour Doppler and immunohistochemical staining revealed a strong decrease in vascularization in the DT01+TACE-treated group preventing the tumour growth restart observed after TACE alone. Similarly, the DT01 combination with DOX led to significant anti-tumour efficacy compared to DOX alone (p=0.02) in the human HCC model. In addition, a significant decrease in vascularization in the group receiving combination DT01 and DOX treatment was observed.

conclusionsDT01 is well tolerated and may potentiate HCC treatment by enhancing the DNA-damaging and anti-vascularization effect of TACE with doxorubicin. KEY POINTS: • DT01 combined with TACE leads to significant anti-tumour efficacy without additional toxicity. • A potential anti-angiogenic role of DT01 was identified in preclinical models. • DT01 may potentiate HCC treatment by enhancing the efficacy of TACE.
