Innovative therapies for prostate cancer treatment.
Article in Reviews in urology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Androgen ablation is effective therapy for metastatic prostate cancer, but the majority of men eventually become refractory to this intervention. Cytotoxic chemotherapy offers palliation to symptomatic patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC); however, no chemotherapy regimen has yet been shown to prolong survival. There is a clear need for new agents and drug targets for the treatment of HRPC. A number of innovative therapeutic approaches that are rationally based and target driven are under investigation. This article reviews the development of antisense oligonucleotides that inhibit the anti-apoptotic bcL-2 protein. Approaches that target the epidermal growth factor receptor, the platelet derived growth factor receptor, and nuclear factor kappa-B are also discussed. There is much expectation that these therapies alone or in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy will impact the clinical outcome of patients with HRPC.
