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

Although mAbs targeting the programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) pathway have achieved remarkable therapeutic potential against multiple types of cancer, it is still of great interest for researchers to develop small-molecule PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors without the mAb-related disadvantages of no oral bioavailability and poor solid tumor penetration. However, targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway with small molecules is normally considered challenging because of the flat and large interaction surface of the PD-1/PD-L1 complex. In this paper, a total of 2558 PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors were compiled from recent patents and literatures and then used for exploring the chemical space and structural features of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors by partial least-squares discriminant analysis. The results showed that intramolecular H bond, amphotericity indices, radius of gyration, nonbond electrostatic energy, fractional van der Waals surface area of H-bond donors, octanol-water partition coefficient, and molecular weight are the seven key features discriminating the PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors from noninhibitors, with the prediction accuracy larger than 0.90. Based on the seven crystal structures of the PD-L1 dimer complexed with the patent
