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

Pralsetinib (PRL) is a selective Rearranged during Transfection (RET) inhibitor, developed by Blueprint Medicines Corporation for the treatment of RET fusion non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), and medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). RET is a known proto-oncogene found in NSCLC, PTC, and MTC. PRL was recently granted accelerated USFDA approval with the brand name GAVRETO™ on 4 September 2020 to treat metastatic RET fusion-positive NSCLC and was updated on 1 December 2020 with the addition of advanced and metastatic RET-altered MTC and PTC in the USA. On 19 November 2021, the European Commission granted conditional marketing authorization to PRL for use as a single agent in adult patients with RET fusion-positive advanced NSCLC. They were not previously treated with an RET inhibitor. This review article summarizes the milestones in the development of PRL, chemistry, chemical (synthesis) research and development, characterization and identification of PRL-resistant RET mutants, the structural basis of resistance to PRL, mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamic, adverse effects, and regulatory status, including ongoing clinical trial of PRL and other potential drug candidates, leading to this first approval of PRL for the treatment of various solid tumors (RET fusion NSCLC, MTC, and PTC).
