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

A novel epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor, osimertinib, has marked efficacy in patients with EGFR-mutant lung cancer. While epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a role in the resistance to various targeted drugs, its involvement in EGFR-inhibitor resistance remains largely unknown. Preclinical experiments with osimertinib-resistant lung cancer cells showed that EMT was associated with decreased microRNA-200c and increased ZEB1 expression. In several resistant clone cells, pretreatment with the histone deacetylase inhibitor quisinostat helped overcome the resistance by reverting EMT. Furthermore, drug screening from a library of 100 kinase inhibitors indicated that Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) inhibitors, such as LY2090314, markedly inhibited the growth and induced apoptosis of resistant cells, specifically those with a mesenchymal phenotype. These results suggest that GSK-3 inhibition could be useful to circumvent EMT-associated resistance to osimertinib in EGFR-mutant lung cancer.
