Review in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Disease progression and treatment resistance in colorectal and other cancers are driven by a subset of cells within the tumor that have stem-cell-like properties and long-term tumorigenic potential. These stem-cell-like cells express the leucine-rich G repeat-containing protein-coupled receptor 5 (LGR5) and have characteristics similar to tissue-resident stem cells in normal adult tissues such as the colon. Organoid models of murine and human colorectal and other cancers contain LGR5-expressing (LGR5+) stem-cell-like cells and can be used to investigate the underlying mechanisms of cancer development, progression, therapy vulnerability, and resistance. A large biobank of organoids derived from colorectal cancer or adjacent normal tissue was developed. We performed a large-scale unbiased functional screen to identify bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) that preferentially inhibit the growth of colon tumor-derived, as compared to normal tissue-derived, organoids. We identified the most potent BsAb in the screen as petosemtamab, a Biclonics
