KRCA-0008 suppresses ALK-positive anaplastic large-cell lymphoma growth.
Article in Investigational new drugs, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), which belongs to the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase superfamily, plays an important role in nervous system development. Due to chromosomal translocations, point mutations, and gene amplification, constitutively activated ALK has been implicated in a variety of human cancers, including anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL), non-small cell lung cancer, and neuroblastoma. We evaluated the anti-cancer activity of the ALK inhibitor KRCA-0008 using ALCL cell lines that express NPM (nucleophosmin)-ALK. KRCA-0008 strongly suppressed the proliferation and survival of NPM-ALK-positive ALCL cells. Additionally, it induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis by blocking downstream signals including STAT3, Akt, and ERK1/2. Tumor growth was strongly suppressed in mice inoculated with Karpas-299 tumor xenografts and orally treated with KRCA-0008 (50 mg/kg, BID) for 2 weeks. Our results suggest that KRCA-0008 will be useful in further investigations of ALK signaling, and may provide therapeutic opportunities for NPM-ALK-positive ALCL patients.
