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

Although epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) could greatly improve the prognosis of NSCLC patients harboring activating EGFR mutations, drug resistance still remains a major obstacle to successful treatment. Our previous study found that the EGFR-TKI icotinib could upregulate the expression of Casitas-B-lineage lymphoma protein-B (Cbl-b), an E3 ubiquitin ligase. In the present study, we aimed to clarify the potential role of Cbl-b in the resistance to icotinib, and the underlying mechanisms using EGFR-mutant cell lines. We found that icotinib inhibited the proliferation of mutant-EGFR NSCLC cells (PC9 and HCC827), and upregulated the expression of Cbl-b at both the protein and mRNA levels. Cbl-b knockdown decreased the sensitivity of PC9 and HCC827 cells to icotinib, and partially restored icotinib-inhibited AKT activation in PC9 cells. On the contrary, Cbl-b overexpression could partly reverse the drug resistance in PC9 icotinib-resistant cells (PC9/IcoR). Moreover, overexpressing p65, the main member of transcription factor NF-κB family, reversed the icotinib-mediated upregulation of Cbl-b. Collectively, these data suggest that icotinib could upregulate Cbl-b mediated by NF-κB inhibition, and Cbl-b contribute to the icotinib sensitivity in EGFR-mutant NSCLC cells. This study highlights that low expression of Cbl-b might be the key obstacles in the efficacy of icotinib therapy.
