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

Benzoxaboroles are a new class of leucyl-tRNA synthetase inhibitors. Epetraborole, a benzoxaborole, is a clinical candidate developed for Gram-negative infections and has been confirmed to exhibit favorable activity against a well known pulmonary pathogen, Mycobacterium abscessus. However, according to ClinicalTrials.gov, in 2017, a clinical phase II study on the use of epetraborole to treat complicated urinary tract and intra-abdominal infections was terminated due to the rapid emergence of drug resistance during treatment. Nevertheless, epetraborole is in clinical development for nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) disease especially for Mycobacterium avium complex-related pulmonary disease (MAC-PD). DS86760016, an epetraborole analog, was further demonstrated to have an improved pharmacokinetic profile, lower plasma clearance, longer plasma half-life, and higher renal excretion than epetraborole in animal models. In this study, DS86760016 was found to be similarly active against M. abscessus
