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 discovery of the medicinal properties of platinum complexes has fueled the design and synthesis of new anticancer metallodrugs endowed with unique modes of action (MoA). Among the various families of experimental antiproliferative agents, organometallics have emerged as ideal platforms to control the compounds' reactivity and stability in a physiological environment. This is advantageous to efficiently deliver novel prodrug activation strategies, as well as to design metallodrugs acting only via noncovalent interactions with their pharmacological targets. Noteworthy, another justification for the advance of organometallic compounds for therapy stems from their ability to catalyze bioorthogonal reactions in cancer cells. When not yet ideal as drug leads, such compounds can be used as selective chemical tools that benefit from the advantages of catalytic amplification to either label the target of interest (e.g., proteins) or boost the output of biochemical signals. Examples of metallodrugs for the so-called "catalysis in cells" are considered in this Outlook together with other organometallic drug candidates. The selected case studies are discussed in the frame of more general challenges in the field of medicinal inorganic chemistry.
