Discovery of a novel rhein-SAHA hybrid as a multi-targeted anti-glioblastoma drug.
Article in Investigational new drugs, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common malignant tumor of the central nervous system (CNS). Effective treatments remain limited. Therefore, novel chemotherapy drugs with high efficiency and few adverse effects are urgently needed. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) and serum and glucocorticoid-regulated protein kinase 1 (SGK1) are targets for the prevention and treatment of GBM. Rhein has antitumor and SGK1 suppression effects, although its biological activity is limited by poor bioavailability. To improve the drug-like properties of rhein, we constructed a novel rhein-hydroxyethyl hydroxamic acid derivative (SYSUP007), which combined rhein with the HDAC inhibitor, suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA). In the present study, the human GBM cell lines, T98G, U87 and U251, were used to investigate the anticancer effects of SYSUP007 in vitro. We found that SYSUP007 was more effective in inhibiting glioma cell proliferation, invasion and migration in vitro compared with the effects of rhein and SAHA. We also confirmed that SYSUP007 increased the expression of Ac-K100 and NDRG1 (targets of HDAC and SGK1). The present study indicates the potential that SYSUP007, as a novel rhein and SAHA derivative, for development as an anti-cancer therapy.
