Searching for novel MDM2/MDMX dual inhibitors through a drug repurposing approach.
Article in Journal of enzyme inhibition and medicinal chemistry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Disruption of p53-MDM2/MDMX interaction by smaller inhibitors is a promising therapeutic intervention gaining tremendous interest. However, no MDM2/MDMX inhibitors have been marketed so far. Drug repurposing is a validated, practical approach to drug discovery. In this regard, we employed structure-based virtual screening in a reservoir of marketed drugs and identified nintedanib as a new MDM2/MDMX dual inhibitor. The computational structure analysis and biochemical experiments uncover that nintedanib binds MDM2/MDMX similarly to RO2443, a dual MDM2/MDMX inhibitor. Furthermore, the mechanistic study reveals that nintedanib disrupts the physical interaction of p53-MDM2/MDMX, enabling the transcriptional activation of p53 and the subsequent cell cycle arrest and growth inhibition in p53
