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

Selectivity of kinase inhibitors, or the lack thereof, continues to be an intensely debated topic in drug discovery research. Especially, type I inhibitors, which represent most of the currently available kinase inhibitors, are often thought to lack selectivity because they target the largely conserved adenosine triphosphate-binding site in kinases. Herein, we present a large-scale analysis of potential selectivity among multikinase inhibitors, covering 141 human kinases and more than 10 000 qualifying compounds. By design, the analysis was focused on type I inhibitors and carried out at the level of systematically generated kinase pairs sharing inhibitors. Kinase pair category- and compound-based selectivity profiles identified in part highly selective inhibitors for many kinases. Sets of inhibitors associated with kinase pairs frequently contained nonselective as well as increasingly selective compounds. Selectivity of inhibitors did not result from gatekeeper residues settings or phylogenetic distance of kinases. Rather, it was most likely attributable to subtle differences between binding regions in kinases. Taken together, the results of our study reveal that many multikinase inhibitors are more selective than one might assume.
