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.

Abstract

purposeMetastatic triple negative breast cancer has a poor prognosis with limited targeted treatment options. In preclinical studies PI3K inhibition led to increased DNA damage and subsequent sensitization to PARP inhibition. This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of the combination of an mTOR/pan-PI3K inhibitor, gedatolisib, with the PARP inhibitor, talazoparib, in patients with advanced triple negative breast cancer or advanced HER2 negative breast cancer and a germline BRCA1/2 mutation.

methodsThe primary objective of the safety run-in was safety and tolerability of the combination and for dose escalation to find the maximum tolerated dose. A 3 + 3 design was utilized for dose escalation. The primary objective of the phase II study was objective response rate (ORR) in the patients with wildtype germline BRCA1/2. The prespecified efficacy threshold was 20%. Secondary objectives included progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) as well as correlative testing, examining homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) status.

resultsThe combination of gedatolisib and talazoparib carried manageable toxicities with a low incidence of grade 3 adverse events. The most common adverse events of all grades were anemia, fatigue, and oral mucositis. The ORR in the phase II study was 12%. There were no new safety signals identified in the phase II study. mPFS was 2.5 months (95% CI 1.71, 9.89), and mOS was 7 months (95% CI 4.3, NA) in the full phase II cohort. HRD status was analyzed by high (≥ 33) or low (< 33) genomic instability score, and there was no difference in response rate between the groups.

conclusionThe combination of gedatolisib and talazoparib is safe but did not meet the prespecified efficacy threshold for objective response rate. Additional preclinical studies of these pathways are warranted prior to future clinical trials of the combination.
