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

The development of platinum(Pt)-drugs for cancer therapy has stalled, as no new Pt-drugs have been approved in over a decade. Packaging small molecule drugs into nanoparticles is a way to enhance their therapeutic efficacy. To date, there has been no direct comparison of relative merits of the choice of Pt oxidation state in the same nanoparticle system that would allow its optimal design. To address this lacuna, we designed a recombinant asymmetric triblock polypeptide (ATBP) that self-assembles into rod-shaped micelles and chelates Pt(II) or enables covalent conjugation of Pt(IV) with similar morphology and stability. Both ATBP-Pt(II) and ATBP-Pt(IV) nanoparticles enhanced the half-life of Pt by ∼45-fold, but ATBP-Pt(IV) had superior tumor regression efficacy compared to ATBP-Pt(II) and cisplatin. These results suggest loading Pt(IV) into genetically engineered nanoparticles may yield a new generation of more effective platinum-drug nanoformulations.
