Molecular targeted therapies in the treatment of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
Review in Targeted oncology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEPNETs) are rare neoplasms that require a multidisciplinary approach for an optimal management. The traditional cytotoxic agents are of limited efficacy in the treatment of these tumors. A better understanding of the molecular pathways that characterize tumor growth has provided novel targets in cancer treatment. Several proteins have been implicated as having a crucial role in GEPNETs. Several proangiogenic molecules are overexpressed in GEPNETs including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptors, and related signaling pathway components such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), insulin growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR) and PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway. In this article we aim to review the recent development of the main molecules that target these proteins and have showed promising activity in the treatment of GEPNETs.
