Anti-tumour activity of Panobinostat in oesophageal adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma cell lines.
Article in Clinical epigenetics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
backgroundOesophageal cancer remains a challenging disease with high mortality rates and few therapeutic options. In view of these difficulties, epigenetic drugs have emerged as potential alternatives for patient care. The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect and biological consequences of Panobinostat treatment, an HDAC (histone deacetylase) inhibitor already approved for treatment of patients with multiple myeloma, in oesophageal cell lines of normal and malignant origin, with the latter being representative of the two main histological subtypes: adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
resultsPanobinostat treatment inhibited growth and hindered proliferation, colony formation and invasion of oesophageal cancer cells. Considering HDAC tissue expression, HDAC1 was significantly upregulated in normal oesophageal epithelium in comparison with tumour tissue, whereas HDAC3 was overexpressed in oesophageal cancer compared to non-malignant mucosa. No differences between normal and tumour tissue were observed for HDAC2 and HDAC8 expression.
conclusionsPanobinostat exposure effectively impaired malignant features of oesophageal cancer cells. Because HDAC3 was shown to be overexpressed in oesophageal tumour samples, this epigenetic drug may represent an alternative therapeutic option for oesophageal cancer patients.
