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

backgroundCrenolanib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting PDGFR-α, PDGFR-β and Fms related tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3) that is currently evaluated in several clinical trials. Although platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) signalling pathway is believed to play an important role in angiogenesis and maintenance of functional vasculature, we here demonstrate a direct angiostatic activity of crenolanib independently of PDGFR signalling.

methodsThe activity of crenolanib on cell viability, migration, sprouting, apoptosis and mitosis was assessed in endothelial cells, tumour cells and fibroblasts. Alterations in cell morphology were determined by immunofluorescence experiments. Flow-cytometry analysis and mRNA expression profiles were used to investigate cell differentiation. In vivo efficacy was investigated in human ovarian carcinoma implanted on the chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM).

resultsCrenolanib was found to inhibit endothelial cell viability, migration and sprout length, and induced apoptosis independently of PDGFR expression. Treated cells  showed altered actin arrangement and nuclear aberrations. Mitosis was affected at several levels including mitosis entry and centrosome clustering. Crenolanib suppressed human ovarian carcinoma tumour growth and angiogenesis in the CAM model.

conclusionsThe PDGFR/FLT3 inhibitor crenolanib targets angiogenesis and inhibits tumour growth in vivo unrelated to PDGFR expression. Based on our findings, we suggest a broad mechanism of action of crenolanib.
