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

The development of efficacious NNRTIs for HIV/AIDS therapy is commonly met with the emergence of drug resistant strains, including the Y181C variant. Using a computationally-guided approach, we synthesized the catechol diether series of NNRTIs, which display sub-nanomolar potency in cellular assays. Among the most potent were a series of 2-cyanoindolizine substituted catechol diethers, including Compound 1. We present here a thorough evaluation of this compound, including biochemical, cellular, and structural studies. The compound demonstrates low nanomolar potency against both WT and Y181C HIV-1 RT in in vitro and cellular assays. Our crystal structures of both the wildtype and mutant forms of RT in complex with Compound 1 allow the interrogation of this compound's features that allow it to maintain strong efficacy against the drug resistant mutant. Among these are compensatory shifts in the NNRTI binding pocket, persistence of multiple hydrogen bonds, and van der Waals contacts throughout the binding site. Further, the fluorine at the C6 position of the indolizine moiety makes multiple favorable interactions with both RT forms. The present study highlights the indolizine-substituted catechol diether class of NNRTIs as promising therapeutic candidates possessing optimal pharmacological properties and significant potency against multiple RT variants.
