The realisation of targeted antitumour therapy.
Article in British journal of cancer, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Better understanding of the pathways regulating proliferation and metastasis of cancer cells has led to the development of novel molecular-targeted therapies. The number of molecular-targeted agents approved for use in the clinic is growing, with many more in clinical trials. Most of these compounds can be broadly classified into two main categories: monoclonal antibodies and small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The pathological processes targeted include vascular endothelial growth factor-dependent tumour angiogenesis and epidermal growth factor receptor-dependent tumour cell proliferation and survival. Unlike conventional chemotherapy, molecular-targeted agents offer the potential advantages of a relatively high therapeutic window and use in combination with other anticancer strategies without overlapping toxicity. It is hoped that these drugs will become valuable therapeutic tools within the multimodal approach to treating cancer. Recent progress in targeted antitumour therapy is discussed, with a focus on antiangiogenesis.
