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

Vepdegestrant (formerly ARV-471), a novel proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC), targets estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) for degradation, offering a promising option to treat advanced ER-positive breast cancer. We developed and validated a sensitive and rapid liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method to quantify vepdegestrant in rodent plasma using bavdegalutamide (formerly ARV-110) as an internal standard. Plasma samples were prepared with protein precipitation using acetonitrile and analyzed using reverse-phase C18 columns and a mobile phase of 10 mM ammonium formate in distilled water and acetonitrile. The method demonstrated linearity from 1 to 1000 ng/mL in mouse and rat plasma, meeting all validation criteria, and successfully applied to in vivo and in vitro studies. Pharmacokinetic analysis revealed low-to-moderate clearance (313.3, 1053 mL/h/kg) and oral bioavailability (17.91, 24.12%) of vepdegestrant in mice and rats, respectively. It was unstable in buffer solutions across pH 2-10 and in phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4), likely due to adsorption, but remained stable in mouse and rat plasma at varying temperatures. In liver microsomes, vepdegestrant exhibited moderate stability in rats but was stable in mice, dogs, and humans. These findings enhance the understanding of pharmacokinetic properties of vepdegestrant supporting further development of PROTAC drugs.
