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

BRCA1/2-mutated ovarian cancers (OCs) are defective in homologous recombination repair (HRR) of double-strand breaks (DSBs) and thereby sensitive to platinum and PARP inhibitors (PARPis). Multiple PARPis have recently received US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for treatment of OCs, and resistance to PARPis is a major clinical problem. Utilizing primary and recurrent BRCA1/2-mutated carcinomas from OC patients, patient-derived lines, and an in vivo BRCA2-mutated mouse model, we identified a microRNA, miR-493-5p, that induced platinum/PARPi resistance exclusively in BRCA2-mutated carcinomas. However, in contrast to the most prevalent resistance mechanisms in BRCA mutant carcinomas, miR-493-5p did not restore HRR. Expression of miR-493-5p in BRCA2-mutated/depleted cells reduced levels of nucleases and other factors involved in maintaining genomic stability. This resulted in relatively stable replication forks, diminished single-strand annealing of DSBs, and increased R-loop formation. We conclude that impact of miR-493-5p on multiple pathways pertinent to genome stability cumulatively causes PARPi/platinum resistance in BRCA2 mutant carcinomas.
