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

backgroundRegorafenib was previously shown to reduce tumor-associated macrophages and potently inhibit colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R), also known as CD115, in biochemical assays. The CSF1R signaling pathway is essential in the biology of the mononuclear/phagocyte system, which can promote the development of cancer.

methodsA deeper investigation of regorafenib's effects on CSF1R signaling was performed using preclinical in vitro and in vivo studies with syngeneic CT26 and MC38 mouse models of colorectal cancer. Peripheral blood and tumor tissue were analyzed mechanistically by flow cytometry using antibodies against CD115/CSF1R and F4/80 and by ELISA for chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) levels. These read-outs were correlated with drug levels for the detection of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationships.

resultsPotent inhibition of CSF1R by regorafenib and its metabolites M-2, M-4, and M-5 was confirmed in vitro in RAW264.7 macrophages. The dose-dependent growth inhibition of subcutaneous CT26 tumors by regorafenib was associated with a significant reduction in both the number of CD115

conclusionsThese findings may be clinically useful in optimizing drug dosing using blood-based pharmacodynamic markers and in identifying resistance mechanisms and ways to overcome them by appropriate drug combinations.
