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

purposeAsparagine containing peptides and proteins undergo deamidation via a succinimide intermediate. This study examines the role of the succinimide in the formation of covalent, amide-linked adducts in amorphous peptide formulations.

methodsStability studies of a model peptide, Gly-Phe-L-Asn-Gly, were performed in lyophiles containing an excess of Gly-Val at 'pH' 9.5 and 40°C/40% RH. Reactant disappearance and the formation of ten different degradants were monitored by HPLC. Mechanism-based kinetic models were used to generate rate constants from the concentration vs. time profiles.

resultsDeamidation of Gly-Phe-L-Asn-Gly in lyophiles resulted in L- and D-aspartyl and isoaspartyl-containing peptides and four amide-linked adducts between the succinimide and Gly-Val. The kinetic analysis demonstrated competition between water and terminal amino groups in Gly-Val for the succinimide. The extent of covalent adduct formation was dependent on dilution effects due to its second order rate law.

conclusionThe cyclic imide formed during deamidation of asparagine containing peptides in lyophiles can also lead to covalent adducts due to reaction with other neighboring peptides. A reaction model assuming a central role for the succinimide in the formation both hydrolysis products and covalent adducts was quantitatively consistent with the kinetic data. This mechanism may contribute to the presence of covalent, non-reducible aggregates in lyophilized peptide formulations.
