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

BMS-790052 is the most potent hepatitis C virus (HCV) inhibitor reported to date, with 50% effective concentrations (EC(50)s) of < or = 50 pM against genotype 1 replicons. This exceptional potency translated to rapid viral load declines in a phase I clinical study. By targeting NS5A, BMS-790052 is distinct from most HCV inhibitors in clinical evaluation. As an initial step toward correlating in vitro and in vivo resistances, multiple cell lines and selective pressures were used to identify BMS-790052-resistant variants in genotype 1 replicons. Similarities and differences were observed between genotypes 1a and 1b. For genotype 1b, L31F/V, P32L, and Y93H/N were identified as primary resistance mutations. L23F, R30Q, and P58S acted as secondary resistance substitutions, enhancing the resistance of primary mutations but themselves not conferring resistance. For genotype 1a, more sites of resistance were identified, and substitutions at these sites (M28T, Q30E/H/R, L31M/V, P32L, and Y93C/H/N) conferred higher levels of resistance. For both subtypes, combining two resistance mutations markedly decreased inhibitor susceptibility. Selection studies with a 1b/1a hybrid replicon highlighted the importance of the NS5A N-terminal region in determining genotype-specific inhibitor responses. As single mutations, Q30E and Y93N in genotype 1a conferred the highest levels of resistance. For genotype 1b, BMS-790052 retained subnanomolar potency against all variants with single amino acid substitutions, suggesting that multiple mutations will likely be required for significant in vivo resistance in this genetic background. Importantly, BMS-790052-resistant variants remained fully sensitive to alpha interferon and small-molecule inhibitors of HCV protease and polymerase.
