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

Cofactor mimicry represents an attractive strategy for the development of enzyme inhibitors but can lead to off-target effects due to the evolutionary conservation of binding sites across the proteome. Here, we uncover the ADP-ribose (ADPr) hydrolase NUDT5 as an unexpected, noncovalent, off-target of clinical BTK inhibitors. Using a combination of biochemical, biophysical, and intact cell NanoBRET assays as well as X-ray crystallography, we confirm catalytic inhibition and cellular target engagement of NUDT5 and reveal an unusual binding mode that is independent of the reactive acrylamide warhead. Further investigation of the prototypical BTK inhibitor ibrutinib also revealed potent inhibition of the largely unstudied NUDIX hydrolase family member NUDT14. By exploring structure-activity relationships (SARs) around the core scaffold, we identify a potent, noncovalent, and cell-active dual NUDT5/14 inhibitor. Cocrystallization experiments yielded new insights into the NUDT14 hydrolase active site architecture and inhibitor binding, thus providing a basis for future chemical probe design.
