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

purposeWe investigated whether organoids can be generated from resected tumors of patients who received eight cycles of neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy before surgery, and evaluated the sensitivity/resistance of these surviving cancer cells to cancer therapy. EXPERIMENTAL

designWe generated a library of 10 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) organoid lines: five each from treatment-naïve and FOLFIRINOX-treated patients. We first assessed the histologic, genetic, and transcriptional characteristics of the organoids and their matched primary PDAC tissue. Next, the organoids' response to treatment with single agents-5-FU, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin-of the FOLFIRINOX regimen as well as combined regimen was evaluated. Finally, global mRNA-seq analyses were performed to identify FOLFIRINOX resistance pathways.

resultsAll 10 patient-derived PDAC organoids recapitulate histologic, genetic, and transcriptional characteristics of their primary tumor tissue. Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX-treated organoids display resistance to FOLFIRINOX (5/5), irinotecan (5/5), and oxaliplatin (4/5) when compared with treatment-naïve organoids (FOLFIRINOX: 1/5, irinotecan: 2/5, oxaliplatin: 0/5). 5-Fluorouracil treatment responses between naïve and treated organoids were similar. Comparative global transcriptome analysis of treatment-naïve and FOLFIRINOX samples-in both organoids and corresponding matched tumor tissues-uncovered modulated pathways mainly involved in genomic instability, energy metabolism, and innate immune system.

conclusionsResistance development in neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX organoids, recapitulating their primary tumor resistance, suggests continuation of FOLFIRINOX therapy as an adjuvant treatment may not be advantageous for these patients. Gene-expression profiles of PDAC organoids identify targetable pathways involved in chemoresistance development upon neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX treatment, thus opening up combination therapy possibilities.
