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 the second largest cancer in the world, and it has highest mortality rate in women worldwide. The aberrant activation of the cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) pathway plays an important role in uncontrolled breast cancer cell proliferation. Therefore, targeting CDK4/6 to improve overall survival rates has been a strong interest in breast cancer therapeutics. Till date, four CDK4/6 inhibitors have been developed and approved for hormone receptor-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer therapies with great success. However, acquired resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors has emerged and limits their effectiveness in breast cancer. In this review, we systematically discussed the mechanisms of resistance to CDK4/6 inhibitors including the cell cycle-specific and cell cycle-nonspecific mechanisms. Also, we analyzed combination strategies with other signaling inhibitors in clinical and preclinical settings that further expand the clinical application of CDK4/6 inhibitors in future breast cancer therapies.
