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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) poses a therapeutic challenge due to its aggressive nature and lack of targeted therapies. Epigenetic modifications contribute to TNBC tumorigenesis and drug resistance, offering potential therapeutic targets. Recent advancements in three-dimensional (3D) organoid cultures, enabling precise drug screening, hold immense promise for identifying novel compounds targeting TNBC. In this study, we established two patient-derived TNBC organoids and implemented a high-throughput drug screening system using these organoids and two TNBC cell lines. Screening a library of 169 epigenetic compounds, we found that organoid-based systems offer remarkable precision in drug response assessment compared to cell-based models. The top 30 compounds showing the highest drug sensitivity in the initial screening were further assessed in a secondary screen. Four compounds, panobinostat, pacritinib, TAK-901, and JIB-04, targeting histone deacetylase, JAK/STAT, histone demethylases, and aurora kinase pathways, respectively, exhibited potent anti-tumor activity in TNBC organoids, surpassing the effect of paclitaxel. Our study highlights the potential of these novel epigenetic drugs as effective therapeutic agents for TNBC and demonstrates the valuable role of patient-derived organoids in advancing drug discovery.
