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

Poor therapeutic response in subsets of breast cancer (BC) patients poses an ongoing challenge. Here, we present a biomarker-guided characterization of 40 patient-derived BC organoids, with the aim of modeling resistant disease with greater fidelity and developing an in vitro system grounded in clinical data for testing alternative treatment strategies. We utilize patient data from the I-SPY2 clinical trial (NCT01042379) to develop predictive models of response to a range of therapies, using only organoid-detectable biomarkers as input, and validate a model predicting response to veliparib-platinum chemotherapy (VP) in triple-negative BC (TNBC) organoids. A drug screen in VP-resistant TNBC organoids reveals combination treatments that overcome resistance to cisplatin, including pro-apoptotic therapies. Another class of hits, HSP90 inhibitors, links organoid drug sensitivity to improved recurrence-free survival in a biomarker-defined patient subset. These findings establish organoid-based functional modeling as a bridge between clinical biomarkers and precision treatment strategies in breast cancer.
