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

The poor prognosis of ovarian cancer (it is the leading cause of death from gynecological cancers) is mainly due to the acquisition of resistance to carboplatin. Among the possible resistance pathways, resistance to apoptosis and especially the overexpression of inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAP) cIAP1 and X-linked IAP (XIAP), have been implicated. DEBIO 1143, a SMAC (second mitochondria-derived activator of caspase) mimetic, belongs to a new class of targeted agents currently being evaluated in clinical trials, which activate apoptotic cell death and block pro-survival signaling in cancer cells. Here, we demonstrate that DEBIO 1143 in vitro inhibits the cell viability of two carboplatin-sensitive cell lines (IGROV-1 and A2780S) as well as three carboplatin-resistant cell lines (A2780R, SKOV-3 and EFO-21). Of note, DEBIO 1143 is able to reverse resistance to carboplatin by inducing cell death either by apoptosis or necroptosis depending on the cell lines. To identify a biomarker able to predict the sensitivity of the cell lines to DEBIO 1143 treatment we analyzed the expression of the DEBIO 1143 targets cIAP1 and XIAP, and one of their downstream targets, caspase 9. These proteins did not constitute a marker of DEBIO 1143 sensitivity/resistance. Importantly, we confirmed these findings in vivo in SKOV-3 xenograft models where DEBIO 1143 highly potentiated carboplatin treatment.
