Rational design of humanized antibody inhibitors for cathepsin S.
Article in Archives of biochemistry and biophysics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Cathepsin S (CTSS) is involved in pathogenesis of many human diseases. Inhibitors blocking its protease activity hold therapeutic potential. In comparison to small-molecule inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies capable of inhibiting CTSS enzymatic activity may possess advantageous pharmacological properties. Here we designed and produced inhibitory antibodies targeting human CTSS by genetically fusing the propeptide of procathepsin S (proCTSS) with antibodies in clinic. The resulting antibody fusions in full-length or fragment antigen-binding format could be stably expressed and potently inhibit CTSS proteolytic activity in high specificity. These fusion antibodies not only demonstrate a new approach for facile synthesis of antibody inhibitors against CTSS, but also represent novel anti-CTSS therapeutic candidates.
