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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous disease comprising several subtypes. Androgen-receptor (AR) signaling has been targeted by several investigational agents in luminal AR subtype TNBCs. Bromodomain (BRD) and extra-terminal motif (BET) protein inhibitors have been shown to attenuate AR signaling in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and to overcome enzalutamide resistance. We demonstrated potent anti-tumor effects of the BET inhibitor JQ1 against AR-positive TNBC cell lines using cell viability and cell cycle analysis. To reveal the mechanisms of JQ1 effects, multiplex gene expression analysis and immunoblotting assays were used. We examined in vivo effects of JQ1 in a xenograft model of AR expressing TNBC. JQ1 exhibited its anti-proliferative activity by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. JQ1 activity was not mediated by MYC downregulation. Instead, JQ1 blocked the interactions among the ATPase-family AAA-domain-containing 2 protein (ATAD2), BRD2, BRD4, and AR; effectively suppressing the expression of AR associated targets. In addition, JQ1 showed significant anti-tumor activity in vivo in TNBC xenograft mouse models as a monotherapy and in combination with anti-AR therapy. Taken together, our results showed that the BET inhibitor JQ1 is a promising therapeutic agent for the treatment of AR-positive TNBC.
