Maraviroc/cisplatin combination inhibits gastric cancer tumoroid growth and improves mice survival.
Article in Biological research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundGastric cancer (GC) is a significant cancer-related cause of death worldwide. GC's most used chemotherapeutic regimen is based on platinum drugs such as cisplatin (CDDP). However, CDDP chemoresistance reduces the survival rate of advanced GC. The immune C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) have been proposed as a pivotal factor in cancer progression since its blockade has been linked with antineoplastic effects on tumor cell proliferation; nevertheless, its role in the chemoresistance of GC has not been elucidated. This study aimed to determine the effects induced by the CCR5 using Maraviroc (MVC), a highly selective CCR5 antagonist, on CDDP-resistant AGS cells (AGS R-CDDP), tumoroids (3D tumor spheroids), and animal models.
resultsThe combined CDDP and MVC treatment reduced cell viability and inhibited tumoroid formation in AGS R-CDDP cells. The effects of the MVC/CDDP combination on apoptosis and cell cycle progression were correlated with the increase in CDDP (dose-dependent). The mRNA levels of C-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 5 (CCL5), the main ligand for CCR5, decreased significantly in cells treated with the MVC/CDDP combination. MVC in the MVC/CDDP combination improved the survival rate and biochemical parameters of CDDP-treated mice by reducing the side effects of CDDP alone.
conclusionsThis finding suggests that MVC/CDDP combination could be a potential complementary therapy for GC.
