System for Self-excited Targeted Photodynamic Therapy Based on the Multimodal Protein DARP-NanoLuc-SOPP3.
Article in Acta naturae. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Despite the significant potential of photodynamic therapy (PDT) as a minimally invasive treatment modality, the use of this method in oncology has remained limited due to two serious problems: 1) limited penetration of the excitation light in tissues, which makes it impossible to affect deep-seated tumors and 2) use of chemical photosensitizers that slowly degrade in the body and cause photodermatoses and hyperthermia in patients. To solve these problems, we propose a fully biocompatible targeted system for PDT that does not require an external light source. The proposed system is based on bioluminescent resonance energy transfer (BRET) from the oxidized form of the luciferase substrate to the photosensitizing protein SOPP3. The BRET-activated system is composed of the multimodal protein DARP-NanoLuc-SOPP3, which contains a BRET pair NanoLuc-SOPP3 and a targeting module DARPin. The latter provides the interaction of the multimodal protein with tumors overexpressing tumor-associated antigen HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor type II).
