SU11248 inhibits tumor growth and CSF-1R-dependent osteolysis in an experimental breast cancer bone metastasis model.
Article in Clinical & experimental metastasis, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map.

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
The aim of the study was to investigate inhibitory effects of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitor SU11248 against CSF-1R and osteoclast (OC) formation. We developed an in vivo model of breast cancer metastasis to evaluate efficacy of SU11248 against tumor growth and tumor-induced osteolysis in bone. The in vitro effects of SU11248 on CSF-1R phosphorylation, OC formation and function were evaluated. Effects on 435/HAL-Luc tumor growth in bone were monitored by in vivo bioluminescence imaging (BLI), and inhibition of osteolysis was evaluated by measurement of serum pyridinoline (PYD) concentration and histology. Phosphorylation of the receptor for M-CSF (CSF-1R) expressed by NIH3T3 cells was inhibited by SU11248 with an IC50 of 50-100 nM, consistent with CSF-1R belonging to the class III split kinase domain RTK family. The early M-CSF-dependent phase of in vitro murine OC development and function were inhibited by SU11248 at 10-100 nM. In vivo inhibition of osteolysis was confirmed by significant lowering of serum PYD levels following SU11248 treatment of tumor-bearing mice (P = 0.047). Using BLI, SU11248 treatment at 40 mg/kg/day for 21 days showed 64% inhibition of tumor growth in bone (P = 0.006), and at 80 mg/kg/day showed 89% inhibition (P = 0.001). Collectively, these data suggest that SU11248 may be an effective and tolerated therapy to inhibit growth of breast cancer bone metastases, with the additional advantage of inhibiting tumor-associated osteolysis.
