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

Cancers, especially fusion oncoprotein (FO)-driven hematological cancers and sarcomas, often develop from a low number of key mutations. Solitary Fibrous Tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal tumor driven by the NAB2-STAT6 oncofusion gene. Currently, the treatment options for SFT remain limited, with anti-angiogenic drugs providing only partial responses with an average survival of two years. We constructed SFT cell models harboring specific NAB2-STAT6 fusion transcripts using the CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) technology, and we used these cells as models of SFT. High-throughput drug screens demonstrated that the BET inhibitor Mivebresib can differentially reduce proliferation in SFT cell models. Subsequently, BET inhibitors Mivebresib and BMS-986158 efficiently reduced tumor growth in an SFT patient-derived xenograft (PDX) animal model. Furthermore, our data showed that NAB2-STAT6 fusions may lead to high levels of DNA damage in SFTs. Consequently, combining BET inhibitors with PARP (Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase) inhibitors or with ATR inhibitors significantly enhanced anti-proliferative effects in SFT cells. Taken together, this study establishes BET inhibitors Mivebresib and BMS-986158 as promising anti-SFT agents.
