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

Resistance to cancer therapy is a challenge because of innate tumor heterogeneity and constant tumor evolution. Since the pathway of resistance cannot be predicted, combination therapies may address this progression. We discovered that in addition to IGF1 and IGF2, IGFBP-3 binds bFGF, HGF, neuregulin, and PDGF AB with nanomolar affinity. Because growth factors drive resistance, simultaneous inhibition of multiple growth factor pathways may improve the efficacy of precision therapy. Growth factor sequestration by IGFBP-3-Fc enhances the activity of EGFR inhibitors by decreasing cell survival and inhibiting bFGF, HGF, and IGF1 growth factor rescue and also potentiates the activity of other cancer drugs. Inhibition of tumor growth in vivo with adjuvant IGFBP-3-Fc with erlotinib versus erlotinib after treatment cessation supports that the combination reduces cell survival. Inhibition of multiple growth factor pathways may postpone resistance and extend progression-free survival in many cancer indications.
