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

purposeDrug screening programmes have revealed epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (EGFR

methodsWe screened 133 clinically approved anticancer drugs as single agents and in combination with two EGFR

resultsDrugs that were active as single agents (n = 45) included TKIs, HDAC and proteasome inhibitors, and cytostatic drugs. Six combinations were analysed in a matrix format: n = 4 resulted in a significantly increased cell killing (crizotinib, dabrafenib, panobinostat and doxorubicin), and n = 2 exhibited no or negligible effects (regorafenib, venetoclax). Clival chordoma cell lines were more responsive to combined EGFR-MET inhibition. EGFR-MET cross-talk (e.g. via TGF-α secretion) likely accounts for the synergistic effects of EGFR-MET inhibition.

conclusionOur screen revealed promising combinations with EGFR
