A Novel Tumor on Chip Mimicking the Breast Cancer Microenvironment for Dynamic Drug Screening.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
In light of the emerging breakthroughs in cancer biology, drug discovery, and personalized medicine, Tumor-on-Chip (ToC) platforms have become pivotal tools in current biomedical research. This study introduced a novel rapid prototyping approach for the fabrication of a ToC device using laser-patterned poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) layers integrated with a polylactic acid (PLA) electrospun scaffold, enabling dynamic drug delivery and the assessment of therapeutic efficacy in cancer cells. Traditional drug screening methods, such as conventional cell cultures, mimic certain aspects of cancer progression but fail to capture critical features of the tumor microenvironment (TME). While animal models offer a closer approximation of tumor complexity, they are limited in their ability to predict human drug responses. Here, we evaluated the ability of our ToC device to recapitulate the interactions between cancer and TME cells and its efficacy in evaluating the drug response of breast cancer cells. The functional design of the proposed ToC system offered substantial potential for a wide range of applications in cancer research, significantly accelerating the preclinical assessment of new therapeutic agents.
