Development of gene therapy in association with clinically used cytotoxic deoxynucleoside analogues.
Review in Cancer gene therapy, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The clinical use of cytotoxic deoxynucleoside analogues is often limited by resistance mechanisms due to enzymatic deficiency, or high toxicity in nontumor tissues. To improve the use of these drugs, gene therapy approaches have been proposed and studied, associating clinically used deoxynucleoside analogues such as araC and gemcitabine and suicide genes or myeloprotective genes. In this review, we provide an update of recent results in this area, with particular emphasis on human deoxycytidine kinase, the deoxyribonucleoside kinase from Drosophila melanogaster, purine nucleoside phosphorylase from Escherichia coli, and human cytidine deaminase. Data from literature clearly show the feasibility of these systems, and clinical trials are warranted to conclude on their use in the treatment of cancer patients.
