The Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology seeks to address growing concerns about reproducibility in scientific research by conducting replications of 50 papers in the field of cancer biology published between 2010 and 2012. This Registered report describes the proposed replication plan of key experiments from 'Coadministration of a tumor-penetrating peptide enhances the efficacy of cancer drugs' by Sugahara and colleagues, published in Science in 2010 (Sugahara et al., 2010). The key experiments being replicated include Figure 2 and Supplemental Figure 9A. In Figure 2, Sugahara and colleagues presented data on the tumor penetrance of doxorubicin (DOX) when co-administered with the peptide iRGD, as well as the effect of co-treatment of DOX and iRGD on tumor weight and cell death. In Supplemental Figure 9A, they tracked body weight of mice treated with DOX and iRGD to provide evidence that iRGD does not increase known DOX toxicity. The Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology is a collaboration between the Center for Open Science and Science Exchange, and the results of the replications will be published by eLife.

Global nonprofit biological resource center (BRC) and research organization that provides biological products, technical services and educational programs to private industry, government and academic organizations. Its mission is to acquire, authenticate, preserve, develop and distribute biological materials, information, technology, intellectual property and standards for the advancement and application of scientific knowledge. The primary purpose of ATCC is to use its resources and experience as a BRC to become the world leader in standard biological reference materials management, intellectual property resource management and translational research as applied to biomaterial development, standardization and certification. ATCC characterizes cell lines, bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, as well as develops and evaluates assays and techniques for validating research resources and preserving and distributing biological materials to the public and private sector research communities.
View all literature mentionsNon-profit organization to increase the openness, integrity, and reproducibility of scientific research. COS priorities are to (1) make the entire scientific workflow accessible, (2) increase scientists' accountability, (3) facilitate good practices by scientists, (4) increase reward for good practices, and (5) promote reproducibility of scientific findings. COS has three primary activities: * Infrastructure development to support the scientific workflow and to connect technologies that support scientific research and communication, such as the Open Science Framework * Community building on open practices among open-source developers, open science researchers, and the broader scientific community, such as the Open Science Collaboration * Metascience, research on scientific practices, such as Reproducibility Project: Psychology and our partnership with Science Exchange, Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology.
