The KDM5 inhibitor PBIT reduces proliferation of castration-resistant prostate cancer cells via cell cycle arrest and the induction of senescence.

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
The compound 2-4(4-methylphenyl)-1,2-benzisothiazol-3(2H)-one (PBIT) is an inhibitor of the KDM5 family of lysine-specific histone demethylases that has been suggested as a lead compound for cancer therapy. The goal of this study was to explore the effects of PBIT within human prostate cancers. Micromolar concentrations of PBIT altered proliferation of castration-sensitive LNCaP and castration-resistant C4-2B, LNCaP-MDV3100 and PC-3 human prostate cancer cell lines. We then characterized the mechanism underlying the anti-proliferative effects of PBIT within the C4-2B and PC-3 cell lines. Data from Cell Death ELISAs suggest that PBIT does not induce apoptosis within C4-2B or PC-3 cells. However, PBIT did increase the amount of senescence associated beta-galactosidase. PBIT also altered cell cycle progression and increased protein levels of the cell cycle protein p21. PC-3 and C4-2B cells express varying amounts of KDM5A, KDM5B, and KDM5C, the therapeutic targets of PBIT. siRNA-mediated knockdown studies suggest that inhibition of multiple KDM5 isoforms contribute to the anti-proliferative effect of PBIT. Furthermore, combination treatments involving PBIT and the PPARγ agonist 15-deoxy-Δ-12, 14 -prostaglandin J
