Improving Circulation Half-Life of Therapeutic Candidate N-TIMP2 by Unfolded Peptide Extension.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs) are drivers of many diseases including cancer and are established targets for drug development. Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are human proteins that inhibit MMPs and are being pursued for the development of anti-MMP therapeutics. TIMPs possess many attractive properties of a drug candidate, such as complete MMP inhibition, low toxicity and immunogenicity, high tissue permeability and others. A major challenge with TIMPs, however, is their formulation and delivery, as these proteins are quickly cleared from the bloodstream due to their small size. In this study, we explore a new method for plasma half-life extension for the N-terminal domain of TIMP2 (N-TIMP2) through appending it with a long intrinsically unfolded tail containing a random combination of Pro, Ala, and Thr (PATylation). We design, produce and explore two PATylated N-TIMP2 constructs with a tail length of 100- and 200-amino acids (N-TIMP2-PAT
