Microtubule-Targeting Combined with HDAC Inhibition Is a Novel Therapeutic Strategy for Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Gliomas.
Article in Molecular cancer therapeutics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPG) are an incurable childhood brain cancer for which novel treatments are needed. DIPGs are characterized by a mutation in the H3 histone (H3K27M), resulting in loss of H3K27 methylation and global gene dysregulation. TRX-E-009-1 is a novel anticancer agent with preclinical activity demonstrated against a range of cancers. We examined the antitumor activity of TRX-E-009-1 against DIPG neurosphere cultures and observed tumor-specific activity with IC50s ranging from 20 to 100 nmol/L, whereas no activity was observed against normal human astrocyte cells. TRX-E-009-1 exerted its anti-proliferative effect through the induction of apoptotic pathways, with marked increases in cleaved caspase 3 and cleaved PARP levels, while also restoring histone H3K27me3 methylation. Co-administration of TRX-E-009-1 and the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor SAHA extended survival in DIPG orthotopic animal models. This antitumor effect was further enhanced with irradiation. Our findings indicate that TRX-E-009-1, combined with HDAC inhibition, represents a novel, potent therapy for children with DIPG.
