Paltusotine versus octreotide: different effects on radioligand uptake in neuroendocrine tumours.

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
Objective: Somatostatin receptor analogues are well-established in the treatment of metastatic gastro-enteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NETs), especially for symptom control in patients with the carcinoid syndrome, and to control tumour growth. However, they need to be discontinued before peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) as they may saturate the somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2) and prevent binding of the radioactive ligand. Design: We evaluated the effects of the novel somatostatin analogue paltusotine on Methods: Paltusotine and octreotide were evaluated in varying concentrations in an Results: Low, clinically-relevant concentrations of paltusotine (7.3-25.4 nM) demonstrated no influence on cellular radioligand uptake compared to the control. In contrast, octreotide reduced radioligand uptake at low, clinically-relevant concentrations (7.3-25.4 nM) and led to a further significant reduction of radioligand uptake at higher concentrations (73-508 nM). Both paltusotine and octreotide showed overall little or no significant anti-tumour effects Conclusions: Treatment with paltusotine did not significantly reduce radioligand binding of
