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

Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in females. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtype is the most aggressive form of breast cancer that lacks biomarkers and effective targeted therapies. Its high degree of heterogeneity as well as innate and acquired resistance to treatment creates further barriers in achieving positive clinical outcomes in TNBC. Thus, development of novel treatment approaches in TNBC is of high clinical significance. Multimodality approaches with targeted agents and radiotherapy (RT) are promising for increasing efficacy of treatment and circumventing resistance. Here we examined anticancer effects of the Aurora Kinase B (AURKB) inhibitor AZD1152 as a single agent and in combination with RT using various TNBC cell lines, MDA-MB-468, MDA-MB-231 and SUM-159. We observed that AZD1152 alone effectively inhibited colony formation in TNBC cell lines. The combination of AZD1152 at IC50 concentrations together with ionizing radiation further reduced colony formation as compared to the single agent treatment. Our data support the notion that inhibition of the AURKB pathway is a promising strategy for treatment and radiosensitization of TNBC and warrants further translational studies.
