18FDG, [18F]FLT, [18F]FAZA, and 11C-methionine are suitable tracers for the diagnosis and in vivo follow-up of the efficacy of chemotherapy by miniPET in both multidrug resistant and sensitive human gynecologic tumor xenografts.

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
Expression of multidrug pumps including P-glycoprotein (MDR1, ABCB1) in the plasma membrane of tumor cells often results in decreased intracellular accumulation of anticancer drugs causing serious impediment to successful chemotherapy. It has been shown earlier that combined treatment with UIC2 anti-Pgp monoclonal antibody (mAb) and cyclosporine A (CSA) is an effective way of blocking Pgp function. In the present work we investigated the suitability of four PET tumor diagnostic radiotracers including 2-[(18)F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ((18)FDG), (11)C-methionine, 3'-deoxy-3'-[(18)F]fluorothymidine ((18)F-FLT), and [(18)F]fluoroazomycin-arabinofuranoside ((18)FAZA) for in vivo follow-up of the efficacy of chemotherapy in both Pgp positive (Pgp(+)) and negative (Pgp(-)) human tumor xenograft pairs raised in CB-17 SCID mice. Pgp(+) and Pgp(-) A2780AD/A2780 human ovarian carcinoma and KB-V1/KB-3-1 human epidermoid adenocarcinoma tumor xenografts were used to study the effect of the treatment with an anticancer drug doxorubicin combined with UIC2 and CSA. The combined treatment resulted in a significant decrease of both the tumor size and the accumulation of the tumor diagnostic tracers in the Pgp(+) tumors. Our results demonstrate that (18)FDG, (18)F-FLT, (18)FAZA, and (11)C-methionine are suitable PET tracers for the diagnosis and in vivo follow-up of the efficacy of tumor chemotherapy in both Pgp(+) and Pgp(-) human tumor xenografts by miniPET.
