Validating cancer drug targets through chemical genetics.
Review in Biochimica et biophysica acta, 2010. 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
Targeted therapies for cancer promise to revolutionize treatment by specifically inactivating pathways needed for the growth of tumor cells. The most prominent example of such therapy is imatinib (Gleevec), which targets the BCR-ABL kinase and provides an effective low-toxicity treatment for chronic myelogenous leukemia. This success has spawned myriad efforts to develop similarly targeted drugs for other cancers. Unfortunately, the high expectations of these efforts have not yet been realized, likely due to the genetic diversity among and within tumors, as well as the complex and largely unpredictable interactions of drug-like compounds with innumerable targets that affect cellular and organismal metabolism. While improvements in sequencing technologies are beginning to address the first problem, solving the second problem requires methods for linking specific features of the cancer genome to their optimally targeted therapies. One approach, referred to as chemical genetics, accomplishes this by genetic control of chemical susceptibility. Chemical genetics is a crucial tool for the rational development of cancer drugs.
