1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo synthesize and evaluate the antitumor efficacy of double-targeted docetaxel (DTX)-carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS)-PEG-NGR (DTX-CPN) conjugates that could target to CD13 over-expressed tumor neovascular endothelium cells and tumor cells.

methodsDTX was conjugated to CMCS via biodegradable linker and cNGR was applied to endow the conjugates with double targeting ability. The physiochemical properties and stability of this DTX-CPN conjugates were characterized. Cellular uptake study was carried out to evaluate the targeting ability of DTX-CPN conjugates. Cytotoxicity and apoptosis analysis were conducted to evaluate in vitro antitumor effects. In vivo antitumor efficacy was investigated in B16 murine melanoma model.

resultsDTX-CPN conjugates could self-assemble into nanoparticles in water and were stable in plasma. cNGR modification could promote the cellular uptake of DTX-CPN conjugates in CD13 positive HUVEC and B16 cells, leading to more significant cytotoxicity and apoptosis effect than non-targeted conjugates. DTX-CPN conjugates also exhibited better antitumor effect than non-targeted conjugates and Duopafei® in a B16 murine melanoma model.

conclusionsDouble-targeted DTX-CPN conjugates could efficiently target to tumor neovascular cells and tumor cells, and achieve good antitumor effects. DTX-CPN conjugates may be promising candidate for one-double targeting cancer therapy.
