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
introductionPeritoneal disseminated ovarian cancer is one of the most difficult cancers to treat with conventional anti-cancer drugs and the treatment options are very limited, although an intraperitoneal (ip) paclitaxel has shown some clinical benefit. Therefore, treatment of peritoneal disseminated ovarian cancer is a highly unmet medical need and it is urgent to develop a new ip delivered drug regulating the fast DNA synthesis.
methodsWe developed a unique RNAi molecule consisting of shRNA against the thymidylate synthase (TS) and a cationic liposome (DFP-10825) and tested its antitumor activity and PK profile in peritoneally disseminated human ovarian cancer ascites models by the luciferase gene-transfected SCID mice. DFP-10825 alone, paclitaxel alone or combination with DFP-10825 and paclitaxel were administered in an ip route to the tumor-bearing mice. The TS expression level was measured by conventional RT-PCR. The anti-tumor activity and host survival benefit by DFP-10825 treatment on tumor-bearing mice were observed as resulting from the specific TS mRNA knock-down in tumors.
resultsDFP-10825 alone significantly suppressed the growth of SKOV3-luc tumore ascites cells and further extended the survival time of these tumor-bearing mice. Combination with the ip paclitaxel augmented the antitumor efficacy of DFP-10825 and significantly prolonged the survival time in the tumor-bearing mice. Short-hairpin RNA for TS (TS shRNA) levels derived from DFP-10825 in the ascetic fluid were maintained at a nM range across 24 hours but not detected in the plasma, suggesting that TS shRNA is relatively stable in the peritoneal cavity, to be able to exert its anti-tumor activity, but not in blood stream, indicating little or no systemic effect.
conclusionCollectively, the ip delivery of DFP-10825, TS shRNA conjugated with cationic liposome, shows a favorable antitumor activity without systemic adverse events via the stable localization of TS shRNA for a sufficient time and concentration in the peritoneal cavity of the peritoneally disseminated human ovarian cancer-bearing mice.
