Novel nanococktail of a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor and cabazitaxel for castration-resistant prostate cancer.

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
Prognosis of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) carries is poor, and no effective therapeutic regimen is yet known. The phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway played a predominant role and may be a promising molecular target for CRPC. However, the toxicity of the dual PI3K inhibitors in clinical trials limits their clinical efficacy for CRPC. To solve this problem, we employed a highly integrated precision nanomedicine strategy to molecularly and physically target CRPC through synergistic effects, enhanced targeted drug delivery efficiency, and reduced unwanted side-effects. Gedatolisib (Ge), a potent inhibitor of PI3K/mTOR, was formulated into our disulfied-crosslinked micelle plateform (NanoGe), which exhibits excellent water solubility, small size (23.25±2 nm), excellent stability with redox stimulus-responsive disintegration, and preferential uptake at tumor sites. NanoGe improved the anti-neoplastic effect of free Ge by 53 times in PC-3M cells and 13 times in C4-2B cells though its enhanced uptake via caveolae- and clathrin-mediated endocytic pathways and the subsequent inhibition of the PI3K/mTOR pathway, resulting in Bax/Bcl-2 dependent apoptosis. In an animal xenograft model, NanoGe showed superior efficacy than free Ge, and synergized with nanoformulated cabazitaxel (NanoCa) as a nanococktail format to achieve a cure rate of 83%. Taken together, our results demonstrate the potency of NanoGe in combination with NanoCa is potent against prostate cancer.
