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

The cepafungins are a class of highly potent and selective eukaryotic proteasome inhibitor natural products with potential to treat refractory multiple myeloma and other cancers. The structure-activity relationship of the cepafungins is not fully understood. This Article chronicles the development of a chemoenzymatic approach to cepafungin I. A failed initial route involving derivatization of pipecolic acid prompted us to examine the biosynthetic pathway for the production of 4-hydroxylysine, which culminated in the development of a 9-step synthesis of cepafungin I. An alkyne-tagged analogue enabled chemoproteomic studies of cepafungin and comparison of its effects on global protein expression in human multiple myeloma cells to the clinical drug bortezomib. A preliminary series of analogues elucidated critical determinants of potency in proteasome inhibition. Herein we report the chemoenzymatic syntheses of 13 additional analogues of cepafungin I guided by a proteasome-bound crystal structure, 5 of which are more potent than the natural product. The lead analogue was found to have 7-fold greater proteasome β5 subunit inhibitory activity and has been evaluated against several multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma cell lines in comparison to the clinical drug bortezomib.
