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

Development of selective kinase inhibitors that target the ATP binding site continues to be a challenge largely due to similar binding pockets. Palbociclib is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor that targets the ATP binding site of CDK4 and CDK6 with similar potency. The enzymatic function associated with the kinase can be effectively probed using kinase inhibitors however the kinase-independent functions cannot. Herein, we report a palbociclib based PROTAC that selectively degrades CDK6 while sparing the homolog CDK4. We used competition studies to characterize the binding and mechanism of CDK6 degradation.
