Therapeutic Potential of BAY-117082, a Selective NLRP3 Inflammasome Inhibitor, on Metastatic Evolution in Human Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC).
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a commonly occurring head and neck cancer and it is characterized by a high metastasis grade. The aim of this study was to evaluate for the first time the effect of BAY-117082, a selective NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor, in an in vivo orthotopic model of OSCC and its role in the invasiveness and metastasis processes in neighbor organs such as lymph node, lung, and spleen tissues. Our results demonstrated that BAY-117082 treatment, at doses of 2.5 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg, was able to significantly reduce the presence of microscopic tumor islands and nuclear pleomorphism in tongue tissues and modulate the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway activation in tongue tissues, as well as in metastatic organs such as lung and spleen. Additionally, BAY-117082 treatment modulated the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in tongue tissue as well as in metastatic organs such as lymph node, lung, and spleen, also reducing the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), particularly MMP2 and MMP9, markers of cell invasion and migration. In conclusion, the obtained data demonstrated that BAY-117082 at doses of 2.5 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg were able to reduce the tongue tumor area as well as the degree of metastasis in lymph node, lung, and spleen tissues through the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway inhibition.
