Targeted treatment of chondrosarcoma with a bacteriophage-based particle delivering a secreted tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand.

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
Chondrosarcoma (CS) is a malignant cartilage-forming bone tumor that is inherently resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, leaving surgery as the only treatment option. We have designed a tumor-targeted bacteriophage (phage)-derived particle (PDP), for targeted systemic delivery of cytokine-encoding transgenes to solid tumors. Phage has no intrinsic tropism for mammalian cells; therefore, it was engineered to display a double cyclic RGD4C ligand on the capsid to target tumors. To induce cancer cell death, we constructed a transgene cassette expressing a secreted form of the cytokine tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (sTRAIL). We detected high expression of αvβ3 and αvβ5 integrin receptors of the RGD4C ligand, and of the TRAIL receptor-2 in human CS cells (SW1353), but not in primary normal chondrocytes. The RGD4C.PDP-
