Repurposing of the FGFR inhibitor AZD4547 as a potent inhibitor of necroptosis by selectively targeting RIPK1.

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
Necroptosis is a form of regulated necrosis involved in various pathological diseases. The process of necroptosis is controlled by receptor-interacting kinase 1 (RIPK1), RIPK3, and pseudokinase mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), and pharmacological inhibition of these kinases has been shown to have therapeutic potentials in a variety of diseases. In this study, using drug repurposing strategy combined with high-throughput screening (HTS), we discovered that AZD4547, a previously reported FGFR inhibitor, is able to interfere with necroptosis through direct targeting of RIPK1 kinase. In both human and mouse cell models, AZD4547 blocked RIPK1-dependent necroptosis. In addition, AZD4547 rescued animals from TNF-induced lethal shock and inflammatory responses. Together, our study demonstrates that AZD4547 is a potent and selective inhibitor of RIPK1 with therapeutic potential for the treatment of inflammatory disorders that involve necroptosis.
