Novel Modifications and Delivery Modes of Cyclic Dinucleotides for STING Activation in Cancer Treatment.
Review in International journal of nanomedicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 microenvironment tends to be immunosuppressive during tumor growth and proliferation. Immunotherapy has attracted much attention because of its ability to activate tumor-specific immune responses for tumor killing. The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon genes (cGAS-STING) pathway is an innate immune pathway that activates antitumor immunity by producing type I interferons. Cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs), produced by cGAS sensing cytoplasmic abnormal DNA, are major intermediate activating molecules in the STING pathway. Nowadays, CDNs and their derivatives have widely worked as powerful STING agonists in tumor immunotherapy. However, their clinical translation is hindered by the negative electrical properties, sensitivity to hydrolytic enzymes, and systemic toxicity. Recently, various CDN delivery systems have made significant progress in addressing these issues, either through monotherapy or in combination with other treatment modalities. This review details recent advances in CDNs-based pharmaceutical development or delivery strategies for enriching CDNs at tumor sites and activating the STING pathway.
