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

backgroundRadiopharmaceutical targeted therapy (RPT) has been studied for decades; however, recent clinical trials demonstrating efficacy have helped renewed interest in the modality.

methodsThis article reviews National Cancer Institute (NCI)'s support of RPT through communication via workshops and interest groups, through funding extramural programs in academia and small business, and through intramural research, including preclinical and clinical studies.

resultsNCI has co-organized workshops and organized interest groups on RPT and RPT dosimetry to encourage the community and facilitate rigorous preclinical and clinical studies. NCI has been supporting RPT research through various mechanisms. Research has been funded through peer-reviewed NCI Research and Program Grants (RPG) and NCI Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Development Center, which funds small business-initiated projects, some of which have led to clinical trials. The NCI Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP)'s Radiopharmaceutical Development Initiative supports RPT in NCI-funded clinical trials, including Imaging and Radiation Oncology Core (IROC) expertise in imaging QA and dosimetry procedures. Preclinical targeted a-emitter therapy (TAT) research at the NCI's intramural program is ongoing, building on foundational work dating back to the 1980s. Ongoing "bench-to-bedside" efforts leverage the unique infrastructure of the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) Clinical Center.

conclusionGiven the great potential of RPT, our goal is to continue to encourage its development that will generate the high-quality evidence needed to bring this multidisciplinary treatment to patients.
