Phase I Targeted Combination Trial of Sorafenib and GW5074 in Patients with Advanced Refractory Solid Tumors.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundCombination therapy with the administration of GW5074 and sorafenib significantly induced necrotic death in various cancer cells in vivo, as well as prolonging the survival of an animal disease model due to significant suppression of the primary and metastatic lesions. We sought to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and anti-tumor activity of this co-administration therapy in patients with refractory advanced solid cancers.
methodsTwelve patients were enrolled. Eligible subjects received different dosages of GW5074 in one of the three dose cohorts (Cohort 1: 750 mg daily, Cohort 2: 1500 mg daily, Cohort 3: 750 mg twice daily) plus 200 mg of sorafenib daily to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicities (DLT) at phase 1. Furthermore, the expression level of phosphorylated DAPK
resultsAmong the 12 enrolled patients in this phase 1 trial, most adverse effects (AE) were grade 1, with two being grade 3. The most frequent AE of all grades were weight loss and hypertension, occurring in 16.7% of participants. Eight patients (66.7%) had the disease controlled by receiving co-administration therapy of GW5074 and sorafenib. GW5074 was found to have poor absorption, as increasing the dosage did not result in a significant increase in the bioavailability of GW5074 in subjects. Furthermore, the expression level of phosphorylated DAPK
conclusionsCo-administration therapy of GW5074 and sorafenib demonstrated a favorable safety profile and showed anti-tumor activity in a variety of tumor types. However, the solubility of GW5074 is not satisfactory. A future phase 2a trial will be carried out using the new salted form that has been proven to be more effective.
