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

introductionTaxanes are drugs commonly used in the treatment of breast cancer. Despite their proven therapeutic efficacy, they can induce severe toxicities, which can be investigated by pharmacogenomics. In this context, the aim of this study was to investigate 26 molecular biomarkers in 17 pharmacogenes (CYP2C8, ABCB1, CYP1A1, CYP1B1, CYP19A1, CYP3A5, ERCC1, ERBB2, VEGFA, ERCC2, MDM2, MTHFR, RAD51, SOD2, TP53, TANC1 and XRCC1), in women with Breast Cancer undergoing Taxane treatment in the Brazilian Amazon region.

methodsThis study was carried out with 279 women diagnosed with BC, undergoing antineoplastic chemotherapy treatment based on Taxanes (Docetaxel and Paclitaxel), in Brazilian Amazon region. 26 pharmacogenetic markers located in 17 genes involved in the metabolic pathway of Taxanes and related toxicities were selected. Single nucleotide variants were genotyped by allelic discrimination using TaqMan OpenArray Genotyping technology.

resultsThe study population showed significant associations of Taxane toxicities with ten variants of nine genes: CYP1A1, CYP19A1, CYP3A5, ERCC1, VEGFA, ERCC2, MTHFR, TANC1 and XRCC1. Notably, variants in TANC1 and XRCC1, previously associated with radiotoxicity, were also implicated in Taxane-induced toxicities. The study demonstrated that novel biomarkers may be important for investigating Taxane-induced toxicities in breast cancer.

conclusionsThese findings represent a unique contribution to the field, potentially enabling more precise chemotherapy selection, particularly for populations such as Amazonian women.
