1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma has a high mortality rate, with a 5-year survival rate of ~ 12%. Therefore, developing new targeted therapies is urgently needed. ONC-201, a promising candidate, is currently undergoing clinical trials. The main objective of the present work is to investigate the anti-tumour activity of ONC-201 and its two fluorinated analogues (TBP-134, TBP-135). The viability of two pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines (PANC-1, MIA PaCa-2) and three other tumour cell lines (A2058, EBC-1, COLO-205) was assessed after 72-hour treatment with drugs at 0.5, 10, and 25 µM. Significant antiproliferative effects were observed, with 0.5 µM TBP-134 achieving the highest potency, reducing cell viability to approximately 50%. None of the molecules exhibited significant cytotoxicity toward normal human dermal fibroblast cells or cardiomyocytes, indicating a selective anti-tumour profile. The analogues showed more effective results than ONC201 on PANC-1 cells (IC
