Antitumoral Effect of Plocabulin in High Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma Cell Line Models.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Ovarian cancer (OC) is a life-threatening tumor and the deadliest among gynecological cancers in developed countries. First line treatment with a carboplatin/paclitaxel regime is initially effective in the majority of patients, but most advanced OC will recur and develop drug resistance. Therefore, the identification of alternative therapies is needed. In this study, we employed a panel of high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) cell lines, in monolayer and three-dimensional cell cultures. We evaluated the effects of a novel tubulin-binding agent, plocabulin, on proliferation, cell cycle, migration and invasion. We have also tested combinations of plocabulin with several drugs currently used in OC in clinical practice. Our results show a potent antitumor activity of plocabulin, inhibiting proliferation, disrupting microtubule network, and decreasing their migration and invasion capabilities. We did not observe any synergistic combination of plocabulin with cisplatin, doxorubicin, gemcitabine or trabectedin. In conclusion, plocabulin has a potent antitumoral effect in HGSOC cell lines that warrants further clinical investigation.
