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

As found in human lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), STING1 involved in ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) could coordinate immune responses to ectopic DNA triggered by DNA-targeted chemotherapy. ERGIC STING1 is considered to compete with nuclear STING1 to decline aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR)-chromosomal instability (CIN)-triggered chronic STING activation which could cause therapeutic resistance. Moreover, GSTP1 was proved to inhibit ERGIC-STING1 via promoting S-glutathione modification of STING1. Hence, a potent GSTP1-targeted Pt(IV) hybrid NBDHEX-DN604, was designed via conjugating a GSTP1 inhibitor NBDHEX to the axial position of Pt(IV) prodrug. As mentioned, hypoxia is mainly observed in malignant tumors and develops acquired drug resistance. In vitro bio-properties of hypoxic SK-MES-1/cDDP cells demonstrated that NBDHEX-DN604 could reverse chemo-immuno resistance via intercepting GSTP1 to activate ERGIC STING1, leading to the decrease of nuclear STING1. The mechanistic data indicated that NBDHEX-DN604 could elevate ERGIC STING1 to mitigate nuclear STING1-mediated AhR-TLS-CIN-chronic activation. Meanwhile, NBDHEX-DN604 was found to decline STING1-AhR-CIN to circumvent chemo-immuno resistance, resulting in predominant in vivo antitumor effect in HY-KLN-205/cDDP-inoculated BALB/c mice. The data provide a novel rationale for the mixed chemo-immunotherapy of NBDHEX-DN604 as a potent Pt(IV) therapeutic method for patients with resistant LUSC.
