Harnessing Electrophiles In Vivo: A Pilot Study in Swine Using a Hydrophobic Radiopaque Formulation of 2-Propylpentanoyl Chloride.
Article in Molecular pharmaceutics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Manipulating biology through chemistry is older than the discipline of chemistry itself. Traditionally, selectivity of oral or intravenous drugs relied on preferential drug-receptor binding. A novel approach exploiting image-guided techniques to impart spatial selectivity opens up a wide range of new possibilities for study and manipulation of biology. Motivated initially by the poor prognosis for solid tumors such as liver cancer, we demonstrate the use of an extreme form of in vivo chemistry for targeted delivery of 2-propylpentanoyl chloride in a swine model. The ensuing reaction in tissue devitalizes it by multiple mechanisms with lasting effects and, critically, demonstrates very low systemic exposure compared to controls. This work points toward a new, powerful strategy for investigating the interface between chemistry and biology in vivo.
