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

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a serious and deadly disease for which treatment options are limited. The recent approval of antifibrosis agent nintedanib represents one of the first therapeutic approaches for the treatment of IPF. Here, we report novel indolinone-based multikinase inhibitors that target angiogenesis and fibrosis pathways and may serve as potential therapeutics for IPF. KBP-7018 is a novel, tyrosine kinase-selective inhibitor with potent effects on three fibrotic kinases (c-KIT, PDGFR, and RET). The pharmacokinetics (PK) properties of KBP-7018 were favorable in mice, rats, and dogs. In a bleomycin (BLM)-induced mouse pulmonary fibrosis model, 10, 30, and 100 mg/kg daily doses (q.d.) of KBP-7018 improved the 28-day survival rate in a dose-dependent manner. The improved efficacy of KBP-7018 compared to nintedanib provided a certain level of chemical validation for the involvement of PDGFR, c-KIT, and RET in IPF. Thus, KBP-7018 represents a novel multikinase inhibitor with differentiated activity, highly enhanced selectivity, and acceptable PK profiles that will enter phase I clinical trials.
