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

Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a vital chaperone protein, regulating signaling pathways and correcting misfolded proteins in cancer cells by interacting with oncogenic client proteins and co‑chaperones. The inhibition of HSP90 chaperone machinery has been demonstrated as a potential approach with which to inhibit tumor survival, proliferation, invasion and migration. Numerous HSP90 inhibitors have been reported and have exhibited value as cancer‑targeted therapies by interrupting the ATPase activity of HSP90, thus suppressing the oncogenic pathways in cancer cells. These inhibitors have been classified into three categories: i) N‑terminal domain (NTD) inhibitors; ii) C‑terminal domain (CTD) inhibitors; and iii) isoform‑selective inhibitors. However, none of these HSP90 inhibitors are used as clinical treatments. The major limiting factors can be summarized into drug resistance, dose‑limiting toxicity and poor pharmacokinetic profiles. Novel HSP90‑targeted compounds are constantly being discovered and tested for their antitumor efficacy in preclinical and clinical trials, highlighting the prospect of the use of HSP90 inhibitors as cancer‑targeted therapies. Additionally, improved antitumor effects have been observed when HSP90 inhibitors are used in combination with chemotherapy, targeted agents, or immunotherapy. In the present review, the effects of HSP90 inhibitors on the management of the cancer process are discussed and previous and novel HSP90‑based therapeutic strategies in cancer treatment are summarized. Furthermore, prospective HSP90‑targeting candidates are proposed for their future evaluation as cancer treatments.
