TAS-115 inhibits PDGFRα/AXL/FLT-3 signaling and suppresses lung metastasis of osteosarcoma.
Article in FEBS open bio, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumor in adolescence and childhood. Metastatic osteosarcoma has a poor prognosis with an overall 5-year survival rate of approximately 20%. TAS-115 is a novel multiple receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is currently undergoing clinical trials. Using the mouse highly lung-metastatic osteosarcoma cell line, LM8, we showed that TAS-115 suppressed the growth of subcutaneous grafted tumor and lung metastasis of osteosarcoma at least partially through the inhibition of platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha, AXL, and Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 phosphorylation. We also show that these signaling pathways are activated in various human osteosarcoma cell lines and are involved in proliferation. Our results suggest that TAS-115 may have potential for development into a novel treatment for metastatic osteosarcoma.
