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

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR) are promising targets for molecular imaging of prostate cancer (PCa) lesions. Due to the heterogenic overexpression of PSMA and GRPR in PCa, a heterodimeric radiotracer with the ability to bind to both targets could be beneficial. Recently, our group reported the novel heterodimer BQ7800 consisting of a urea-based PSMA inhibitor, the peptide-based GRPR antagonist RM26 and NOTA chelator. The study reported herein, aimed to improve the affinity of BQ7800 towards PSMA by changing the composition of the two linkers connecting the PSMA- and GRPR-targeting motifs. Three novel heterodimeric analogues were synthesized by incorporation of phenylalanine in the functional linker of the PSMA-binding motif and/or shortening the PEG-linker coupled to RM26. The heterodimers were labeled with indium-111 and evaluated in vitro. In the competitive binding assay, BQ7812, featuring phenylalanine and shorter PEG-linker, demonstrated a nine-fold improved affinity towards PSMA. In the in vivo biodistribution study of [
