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

Most experimental oncology therapies fail during clinical development despite years of preclinical testing rationalizing their use. This begs the question of whether the current preclinical models used for evaluating oncology therapies adequately capture patient heterogeneity and response to therapy. Most of the preclinical work is based on xenograft models where tumor mis-location and the lack of the immune system represent a major limitation for the translatability of many observations from preclinical models to patients. Genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) hold great potential to recapitulate more accurately disease models but their cost and complexity have stymied their widespread adoption in discovery, early or late drug screening programs. Recent advancements in genome editing technology made possible by the discovery and development of the CRISPR/Cas9 system has opened the opportunity of generating disease-relevant animal models by direct mutation of somatic cell genomes in an organ or tissue compartment of interest. The advent of CRISPR/Cas9 has not only aided in the production of conventional GEMMs but has also enabled the bypassing of the construction of these costly strains. In this review, we describe the Somatically Engineered Mouse Models (SEMMs) as a new category of models where a specific oncogenic signature is introduced in somatic cells of an intended organ in a post-natal animal. In addition, SEMMs represent a novel platform to perform
