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

Many tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have failed to reach human use due to insufficient activity in clinical trials. However, the failed TKIs may still benefit patients if their other kinase targets are identified by providing treatment focused on syndromes driven by these kinases. Here, we searched for novel targets of AZD1480, an inhibitor of JAK2 kinase that recently failed phase two cancer clinical trials due to a lack of activity. Twenty seven human receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and 153 of their disease-associated mutants were in-cell profiled for activity in the presence of AZD1480 using a newly developed RTK plasmid library. We demonstrate that AZD1480 inhibits ALK, LTK, FGFR1-3, RET and TRKA-C kinases and uncover a physical basis of this specificity. The RTK activity profiling described here facilitates inhibitor repurposing by enabling rapid and efficient identification of novel TKI targets in cells.
