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

The amplification of MET is a major cause of acquired resistance to targeted therapy in EGFR-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), only to be temporarily restrained by the partial efficacy of MET inhibitors. This study reveals that the MET inhibitor has unexpectedly limited efficacy due to amplified MET triggering a strong positive feedback loop in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, allowing optimal functionality even when the MET pathway is suppressed again. To test this conjecture and specifically target the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, a cleverly designed Wnt condensative pro drug called WntSI is developed using reversible supramolecular self-assembly driven by liquidliquid phase separation (LLPS). This process involves a MET/pH-responsive peptide (Tyr-Pep) and a potent Wnt inhibitor known as CA. Upon recognition and phosphorylation of Tyr-Pep by over expressed MET in cells, it disrupts LLPS propensity and facilitates the disintegration of WntSI. Consequently,this enables it to suppress the carcinogenic effect mediated by β-catenin,effectively overcoming acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs caused by MET amplification in both cell line-derived and patient-derived tumor xenograft (PDX) mouse models while maintaining exceptional biosecurity. This effective strategy not only suppresses the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway selectively, but also serves as an innovative example for pro-drug development through biologically responsive LLPS.
