Can the reprogrammed cancer cells serve as an alternative source of (induced) cancer stem cells?

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
Background: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) constitute a small and elusive subpopulation of cancer cells within a tumor mass and are characterized by stem cell properties. Reprogrammed CSCs exhibit similar capability to initiate tumor growth, metastasis, and chemo- and radio-resistance and have similar gene profiles to primary CSCs. However, the efficiency of cancer cell reprogramming remained relatively low. There is limited literature available on the reprogramming of lung cancer cells. Hence, in this study we have conducted reprogramming of human lung cancer cells towards more benign type of cells. Materials and methods: The reprogramming process was carried out with the use of STEMCCA vector. We have investigated the gene expression profile of induced CSCs (iCSCs) using the microarray technique. Results: The lung iCSCs demonstrate morphology characteristics of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and gene expression profile that significantly differ from cells before reprogramming. We have also presented the elevated level of expression of genes associated with the cancer stemness and thus revealed new interesting CSC-like molecular markers. Conclusions: These preliminary results demonstrated that the reprogramming process
