Mining potentially actionable kinase gene fusions in cancer cell lines with the KuNG FU database.
Article in Scientific data, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Inhibition of kinase gene fusions (KGFs) has proven successful in cancer treatment and continues to represent an attractive research area, due to kinase druggability and clinical validation. Indeed, literature and public databases report a remarkable number of KGFs as potential drug targets, often identified by in vitro characterization of tumor cell line models and confirmed also in clinical samples. However, KGF molecular and experimental information can sometimes be sparse and partially overlapping, suggesting the need for a specific annotation database of KGFs, conveniently condensing all the molecular details that can support targeted drug development pipelines and diagnostic approaches. Here, we describe KuNG FU (KiNase Gene FUsion), a manually curated database collecting detailed annotations on KGFs that were identified and experimentally validated in human cancer cell lines from multiple sources, exclusively focusing on in-frame KGF events retaining an intact kinase domain, representing potentially active driver kinase targets. To our knowledge, KuNG FU represents to date the largest freely accessible homogeneous and curated database of kinase gene fusions in cell line models.
