Design and Development of Gold/reduced Graphene Oxide Nanocomposite loaded with Cyclophosphamide: Potential Application in Treatment of Breast Cancer.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveCyclophosphamide (CP) is a widely used anti-cancer drug. It works by alkylation and is commonly used in cancer treatment. In this study, the goal was to create biodegradable drug delivery carriers with minimal side effects for breast cancer treatment by developing gold nanoparticles/reduced graphene oxide (Au-rGO) nanocomposites using a sustainable synthesis method and loading them with cyclophosphamide.
methodsCyclophosphamide-loaded gold/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposites (Au-rGOCP) were synthesized and evaluated using FT-IR, XRD, release pattern, and FE-SEM techniques. Furthermore, the anticancer effect against breast cancer cells was evaluated through MTT and Annexin V assays. CAT, SOD, and GPx biomarkers were used to assess the antioxidant effect of the free and nano-formulated cyclophosphamide.
resultsThe characterization results showed the effective loading of cyclophosphamide in the nanocarriers. Additionally, Au-rGO had a higher drug loading capacity for cyclophosphamide during a 24-hour contact period (92.34%). The pH value affected the amount of cyclophosphamide released from the nanocarriers. Au-rGO/CP displayed significant in vitro anti-cancer activity against MCF-7 cancer cells relative to free CP and rGO/CP. According to Annexin V assay results, Au-rGO/CP induced a higher apoptosis rate in MCF-7 breast cancer cells than other forms.
conclusionIn conclusion, our findings demonstrate that the gold-decorated reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite enhances treatment efficacy and significantly increases apoptosis and cell death induction. As a result, CP-loaded Au-rGO-based compounds could be a promising treatment for breast cancer.
