Novel Self-Assembled Micelles With Increased Tumor Penetration and Anti-Tumor Efficiency Against Breast Cancer.
Article in Pharmaceutical research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeRecently, docetaxel (DTX) micelles based on retinoic acid derivative surfactants showed lower systemic toxicity and bioequivalence to polysorbate-solubilized docetaxel (Taxotere®) in a phase II clinical study. However, the poor stability of these surfactants in vitro and in vivo led to extremely harsh storage conditions with methanol, and the formed micelles were quickly disintegrated with rapid drug burst release in vivo. To further enhance the stability and accumulation in tumors of DTX micelles, a novel surfactant based on acitretin (ACMeNa) was synthesized and used to prepare DTX micelles to improve anti-tumor efficiency.
methodsNovel micelle-forming excipients were synthesized, and the micelles were prepared using the thin film hydration technique. The targeting effect in vitro, distribution in the tumor, and its mechanism were observed. Pharmacokinetics and anti-tumor effect were further investigated in rats and tumor-bearing female mice, respectively.
resultsThe DTX-micelles prepared with ACMeNa (ACM-DTX) exhibited a small size (21.9 ± 0.3 nm), 39% load efficiency, and excellent stability in vitro and in vivo. Long circulation time, sustained and steady accumulation, and strong penetration in the tumor were observed in vivo, contributing to a better anti-tumor effect and lower adverse effects.
conclusionsThe micelles formed by ACMeNa showed a better balance between anti-tumor and adverse effects. It is a promising system for delivering hydrophobic molecules for cancer therapy.
