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

Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), a catalytic subunit of polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), is overexpressed in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), correlating with poor prognosis. However, EZH2 catalytic inhibitors are ineffective in suppressing the growth of TNBC cells that are dependent on EZH2. Knockdown of EZH2 inhibits the proliferation of these cells, suggesting that EZH2 protein overexpression but not its catalytic activity is critical for driving TNBC progression. Several proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) degraders of EZH2, including the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL)-recruiting PROTAC YM281, have been reported. However, the effects of these EZH2 PROTACs in TNBC cells were not investigated. Here, we report the discovery and characterization of a novel, potent, and selective EZH2 PROTAC degrader, MS8815 (compound
