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

Ovarian carcinoma cells are often infected inefficiently by adenoviruses (Ad) due to low expression of coxsackie-adenovirus receptors (CAR), hindering the application of adenovirus-mediated gene therapy in ovarian cancer. In this study, we explored a class of infectivity-enhanced Ad vectors, which contain CAR-independent targeting motifs RGD (Ad5.RGD), polylysine (Ad5.pK7), or both (Ad5.RGD.pK7), for their utility in ovarian cancer gene therapy using in vitro and in vivo model systems. We found that these vectors infected established ovarian carcinoma cell lines and primary ovarian cancer cells with significantly enhanced infectivity. Among them, Ad5.RGD.pK7 appeared to be most efficient. Further, we evaluated their gene delivery efficiency using two different ovarian cancer mouse models--subcutaneous and intraperitoneal human ovarian cancer xenografts. All of the modified vectors appeared to be more efficient than the unmodified Ad5 vector in both models, although some of the differences are not statistically significant. Of these, Ad5.RGD.pK7 exhibited the highest efficacy in the subcutaneous tumor model, while Ad5.pK7 worked most efficiently in the intraperitoneal tumor model. These preclinical results suggest that Ad5.RGD.pK7 and Ad5.pK7 may be very useful in ovarian cancer gene therapy.
