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

Senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in cancer refers to the bioactive secretome produced by senescence cells in the tumor microenvironment, which could be triggered by therapeutics or local stress conditions. Here, we provided a SASP Score in glioblastoma (GBM) with generating a SASP gene panel to identify the potential small molecular candidate targeting SASP in GBM. The effectiveness of this scoring method was firstly interrogated with our in-house GBM cohort and public datasets, including transcriptomic data from bulk and single cell GBM samples. Then, we validate this score with functional assays and transcriptomic profiling of Doxorubicin-induced senescence GBM cells. Multi-omics profiling with this score demonstrates that SASP facilitates IDH wild type glioma progression by modulating both the behaviors of malignant cells and tumor associated macrophages (TAMs), and discloses GDC-0879 as a feasible SASP inhibitor in GBM therapy. Its administration not only attenuates the tumorigenicity of GBM cells, but also sensitizes GBM to anti-PD1 in preclinical mouse models. Together, we provide a SASP evaluation approach in glioma, and use it to highlight the critical role of SASP in GBM progression and demonstrate GDC-0879 as a small molecule impairing GBM tumorigenicity and improving their response to anti-PD1.
