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

Panobinostat (pano) is an FDA-approved histone deacetylase inhibitor. There is interest in evaluating alternate dosing schedules and novel combinations of pano for the treatment of upper aerodigestive and lung malignancies; thus we evaluated it in combination with Taxol, a chemotherapeutic with activity in both diseases. Dose-dependent synergy was observed in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines and was due to senescence rather than potentiation of cell death. Senescence occurred following cisplatin- or Taxol-treatment in cell lines from both cancer types and was associated with decreased histone 3 (H3) acetylation and increased Bcl-xL expression: the latter a biomarker of senescence and target of anti-senescence therapeutics, or senolytics. Since H3 acetylation and Bcl-xL expression were altered in senescence, we subsequently evaluated pano as a senolytic in chemotherapy-treated cancer cells enriched for senescent cells. Pano caused cell death at significantly higher rates compared to repeat dosing with chemotherapy. This was associated with decreased expression of Bcl-xL and increased acetylated H3, reversing the expression patterns observed in senescence. These data support evaluating pano as a post-chemotherapy senolytic with the potential to kill persistent senescent cells that accumulate during standard chemotherapy in NSCLC and HNSCC.
