Effect of fractalkine-Fc delivery in experimental lung metastasis using DNA/704 nanospheres.
Article in Cancer gene therapy, 2011. 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
The lung is one target organ to which solid tumors frequently metastasize. Given the systemic adverse effects of currently available treatments, developing effective strategies of drug/gene delivery directly to the lungs is therefore needed. Aerosol delivery is a non-invasive gene transfer approach to target the airways. Here, we sought to evaluate the potential to deliver a fractalkine (FKN)-encoding plasmid formulated with the tetrafunctional amphiphilic block copolymer 704 through aerosolization in two models of pulmonary metastases. FKN is a chemokine recently described as a good candidate to stimulate a strong antitumor immune response in various forms of cancers. Here, we have assessed the effect of single and repeated aerosolizations of FKN-encoding plasmid formulated with 704 on the development of experimental lung metastases of mouse colon carcinoma and osteosarcoma. For this purpose, we have designed FKN-Fc sequences encoding an optimized version of the chemokine. Repeated intratracheal administrations of 704/FKN-Fc markedly inhibited growth of experimental lung metastases of CT-26 and K7M2 cells. Our results showed that tetrafunctional amphiphilic block copolymer 704 is a highly efficient synthetic vector for mediating local and safe gene transfer into the lung. In addition, FKN-Fc gene therapy of pulmonary nodules may provide a promising immunotherapeutic approach.
