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

backgroundThe major clinical obstacle that limits the long-term benefits of treatment with osimertinib (AZD9291) in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor-mutant non-small cell lung cancer is the development of acquired resistance. Therefore, effective strategies that can overcome acquired resistance to osimertinib are urgently needed. The authors' current efforts in this direction have identified LBH589 (panobinostat), a clinically used histone deacetylase inhibitor, as a potential agent in overcoming osimertinib resistance.

methodsCell growth and apoptosis in vitro were evaluated by measuring cell numbers and colony formation and by detecting annexin V-positive cells and protein cleavage, respectively. Drug effects on tumor growth in vivo were assessed with xenografts in nude mice. Alterations of tested proteins in cells were monitored with Western blot analysis. Gene knockout was achieved using the CRISPR/Cas9 technique.

resultsThe combination of LBH589 and osimertinib synergistically decreased the survival of different osimertinib-resistant cell lines, including those harboring C797S mutations, with greater inhibition of cell colony formation and growth. The combination enhanced the induction of apoptosis in osimertinib-resistant cells. Importantly, the combination effectively inhibited the growth of osimertinib-resistant xenograft tumors in nude mice. Mechanistically, the combination of LBH589 and osimertinib enhanced the elevation of Bim in osimertinib-resistant cells. Knockout of Bim in osimertinib-resistant cells substantially attenuated or abolished apoptosis enhanced by the LBH589 and osimertinib combination. These results collectively support a critical role of Bim elevation in the induction of apoptosis of osimertinib-resistant cells for this combination.

conclusionsThe current findings provide strong preclinical evidence in support of the potential for LBH589 to overcome osimertinib resistance in the clinic.
