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

Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common gynecologic malignancies amongst women worldwide. Its incidence and mortality rates have been increasing in the last decade. In the present work, we built a patient EC-derived organoid (PDOs) platform that faithfully recapitulated tumor phenotype, genomic alterations, and expression profiles of matched-primary cancer tissues. Interestingly, we found that the response of EC-derived PDOs to both standard therapy and a wide range of targeted drugs accordingly to their specific druggable genetic alterations was congruent with that of the originating patients. We also isolated and genomically characterized matched-PDO stromal cells, specifically cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). Unlike PDOs matched CAFs were poorly responsive and underwent to pro-inflammatory senescence upon treatment with standard therapy. Collectively, our findings established a EC-PDOs preclinical platform which allows assessing the therapeutic response of tumor and surrounding tumor microenvironment cellular landscape.
