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

Discovering molecules that regulate closely related protein isoforms is challenging, and in many cases the consequences of isoform-specific pharmacological regulation remains unknown. RAF isoforms are commonly mutated oncogenes that serve as effector kinases in MAP kinase signaling. BRAF/CRAF heterodimers are believed to be the primary RAF signaling species, and many RAF inhibitors lead to a "paradoxical activation" of RAF kinase activity through transactivation of the CRAF protomer; this leads to resistance mechanisms and secondary tumors. It has been hypothesized that CRAF-selective inhibition might bypass paradoxical activation, but no CRAF-selective inhibitor has been reported and the consequences of pharmacologically inhibiting CRAF have remained unknown. Here, we use bio-orthogonal ligand tethering (BOLT) to selectively target inhibitors to CRAF. Our results suggest that selective CRAF inhibition promotes paradoxical activation and exemplify how BOLT may be used to triage potential targets for drug discovery before any target-selective small molecules are known.
