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

Targeted therapies have provided the foundation for many advances in the treatment options for patients with late-stage cancer, however, adaptive and compensatory responses frequently limit their efficacy. Rational combinations of targeted inhibitors are being actively tested in preclinical models to form the basis for more durable responses in patients. In a previous issue, Wang and colleagues provide evidence that phosphorylated SHP2 is adaptively upregulated in response to MEK inhibitors in malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) that have lost NF1 expression. The authors provide evidence that the combination of SHP2 inhibitors with MEK inhibitors has strong efficacy in preclinical MPNST models and propose that this targeted therapy combination should be rapidly translated.
