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

backgroundHypoxic tumor microenvironment (TME) contributes to the onset of many aspects of the cancer biology associated to the resistance to conventional therapies. Hypoxia is a common characteristic and negative prognostic factor in the head and neck squamous carcinomas (HNSCC) and is correlated with aggressive and invasive phenotype as well as with failure to chemo- and radio-therapies. The carbonic anhydrase isoenzymes IX and XII (CA IX/XII), regulators of extra and intracellular pH, are overexpressed in TME and are involved in adaptative changes occurring in cancer cells to survive at low O

methodsThe effects of cisplatin, CA IX/XII specific inhibitor SLC-0111, and the combinatorial treatment were tested on proliferation, migration, invasion of HNSCC cells grown in 2D and 3D models. Main signal pathways and the expression of stemness, mesenchymal and apoptotic markers were analyzed by western blotting. Molecular imaging using NIR-Annexin V and NIR-Prosense was performed in HNSCC xenografts to detect tumor growth and metastatic spread.

resultsHNSCC cells grown in 2D and 3D models under hypoxic conditions showed increased levels of CA IX/XII and greater resistance to cisplatin than cells grown under normoxic conditions. The addition of CA IX/XII inhibitor SLC-0111 to cisplatin sensitized HNSCC cells to the chemotherapeutic agent and caused a reduction of proliferation, migration and invasiveness. Furthermore, the combination therapy hampered activation of STAT3, AKT, ERK, and EMT program, whereas it induced apoptosis. In HNSCC xenografts the treatment with cisplatin plus SLC-0111 caused an inhibition of tumor growth and an induction of apoptosis as well as a reduction of metastatic spread at a higher extent than single agents.

conclusionOur results highlight the ability of SLC-0111 to sensitize HNSCC to cisplatin by hindering hypoxia-induced signaling network that are shared among mechanisms involved in therapy resistance and metastasis.
