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

backgroundThere is growing evidence that spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) is critical for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) transformation and maintenance of the leukemic clone in AML patients. It has also been found to be over-expressed in AML patients, with activating mutations in foetal liver tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), particularly those with internal tandem duplications (FLT3-ITD), where it transactivates FLT3-ITD and confers resistance to treatment with FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).

methodsWe have previously described a pharmacological approach to treating FLT3-ITD-positive AML that relies on proteasome-mediated FLT3 degradation via inhibition of USP10, the deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) responsible for cleaving ubiquitin from FLT3.

resultsHere, we show that USP10 is also a major DUB required for stabilisation of SYK. We further demonstrate that degradation of SYK can be induced by USP10-targeting inhibitors. USP10 inhibition leads to death of cells driven by active SYK or oncogenic FLT3 and potentiates the anti-leukemic effects of FLT3 inhibition in these cells.

conclusionsWe suggest that USP10 inhibition is a novel approach to inhibiting SYK and impeding its role in the pathology of AML, including oncogenic FLT3-positive AML. Also, given the significant transforming role SYK in other tumours, targeting USP10 may have broader applications in cancer.
