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

Emerging evidence has shown long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in cancer drug response. Here we report a lncRNA pharmacogenomic landscape by integrating multi-dimensional genomic data of 1005 cancer cell lines and drug response data of 265 anti-cancer compounds. Using Elastic Net (EN) regression, our analysis identifies 27,341 lncRNA-drug predictive pairs. We validate the robustness of the lncRNA EN-models using two independent cancer pharmacogenomic datasets. By applying lncRNA EN-models of 49 FDA approved drugs to the 5605 tumor samples from 21 cancer types, we show that cancer cell line based lncRNA EN-models can predict therapeutic outcome in cancer patients. Further lncRNA-pathway co-expression analysis suggests lncRNAs may regulate drug response through drug-metabolism or drug-target pathways. Finally, we experimentally validate that EPIC1, the top predictive lncRNA for the Bromodomain and Extra-Terminal motif (BET) inhibitors, strongly promotes iBET762 and JQ-1 resistance through activating MYC transcriptional activity.
