1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Monoclonal antibodies have recently started to deliver on their promise as highly specific and active drugs; however, a more effective, knowledge-based approach to the selection, design, and optimization of potential therapeutic antibodies is currently limited by the surprising lack of detailed structural information for complexes formed with target proteins. Here we show that complexes formed with minimal antigen binding single chain variable fragments (scFv) reliably reflect all the features of the binding interface present in larger Fab fragments, which are commonly used as therapeutics, and report the development of a robust, reliable, and relatively rapid approach to the determination of high resolution models for scFv-target protein complexes. This NMR spectroscopy-based approach combines experimental determination of the interaction surfaces and relative orientations of the scFv and target protein, with NMR restraint-driven, semiflexible docking of the proteins to produce a reliable and highly informative model of the complex. Experience with scFvs and Fabs targeted at a number of secreted regulatory proteins suggests that the approach will be applicable to many therapeutic antibodies targeted at proteins, and its application is illustrated for a potential therapeutic antibody targeted at the cytokine IL-1beta. The detailed structural information that can be obtained by this approach has the potential to have a major impact on the rational design and development of an increasingly important class of biological pharmaceuticals.
