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

Overexpression of both human murine double minute 2 (MDM2) and X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) is detected in tumor cells from several cancer types, including childhood acute leukemia lymphoma (ALL), neuroblastoma (NB), and prostate cancer, and is associated with disease progression and treatment resistance. In this report, we described the design and syntheses of a series of dual MDM2/XIAP inhibitors based on the tetrahydroquinoline scaffold from our previously reported lead compound JW-2-107 and tested their cytotoxicity in a panel of human cancer cell lines. The best compound identified in this study is compound 3e. Western blot analyses demonstrated that treatments with 3e decreased MDM2 and XIAP protein levels and increased expression of p53, resulting in cancer cell growth inhibition and cell death. Furthermore, compound 3e effectively inhibited tumor growth in vivo when tested using a human 22Rv1 prostate cancer xenograft model. Collectively, results in this study strongly suggest that the tetrahydroquinoline scaffold, represented by 3e and our earlier lead compound JW-2-107, has abilities to dual target MDM2 and XIAP and is promising for further preclinical development.
