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

backgroundEpithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. The objective of this study was to compare the anti-tumor activity of HER2/neu-targeting monoclonal antibodies, trastuzumab (T), pertuzumab (P), combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab (T+P) and trastuzumab-emtansine (T-DM1) in EOC with high HER2/neu expression.

methodsPrimary EOC cell lines were established and cell blocks were analyzed for HER2/neu expression. Cytostatic, apoptotic and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) activities of T, P, T+P and T-DM1 were evaluated in vitro. The in vivo antitumor activity was tested in xenograft models with 3+ HER2/neu expression.

resultsHigh (3+) HER2/neu expression was detected in 40% of the primary EOC cell lines. T, P, T+P, and T-DM1 were similarly effective in inducing strong ADCC against primary EOC cell lines expressing 3+ HER2/neu. The combination of T and P was more cytostatic when compared with that of T or P used alone (p<0.0001 and p<0.0001, respectively). T-DM1 induced significantly more apoptosis when compared with T+P (p<0.0001). Finally, T-DM1 was significantly more effective in tumor growth inhibition in vivo in EOC xenografts overexpressing HER2/neu when compared to T alone, P alone and T+P (p=0.04).

conclusionIn vitro and in vivo experiments with 3+ HER2/neu expressing EOC revealed limited anti-tumor activity of T or P. T-DM1 showed superior anti-tumor activity to T and P as single agents and as a combination. Our preclinical data support the design of clinical studies with T-DM1 for the treatment of chemotherapy-resistant EOC overexpressing HER2/neu.
