DNA Damage Repair in Glioblastoma: A Novel Approach to Combat Drug Resistance.
Article in Cell proliferation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Due to the lack of effective therapeutic approach, glioblastoma (GBM) remains one of the most malignant brain tumour. By in vitro investigations on primary GBM stem cells, we highlighted one of the underlying mechanisms of drug resistance to alkylating agents, the DNA damage responses. Here, flow cytometric analysis and viability and repopulation assays were used to assess the long-term cytotoxic effect induced by the administration of a fourth-generation platinum prodrug, the (OC-6-44)-acetatodiamminedichlorido(2-(2-propynyl)octanoato) platinum(IV) named Pt(IV)Ac-POA, in comparison to the most widely used Cisplatin. The immunofluorescence studies revealed changing pathways involved in the DNA damage response mechanisms in response to the two chemotherapies, suggesting in particular the role of Poly (ADP-Ribose) polymerases in the onset of resistance to Cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity. Thus, this research provides a proof of concept for how the use of a prodrug which allows the co-administration of Cisplatin and an Histone DeACetylase inhibitors, could suppress DNA repair mechanisms, suggesting a novel effective approach in GBM treatment.
