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

Control of stem cell-associated genes by Trithorax group (TrxG) and Polycomb group (PcG) proteins is frequently misregulated in cancer. In leukemia, oncogenic fusion proteins hijack the TrxG homolog KMT2A and disrupt PcG activity to maintain pro-leukemogenic gene expression, though the mechanisms by which oncofusion proteins antagonize PcG proteins remain unclear. Here, we define the relationship between NUP98 oncofusion proteins and the non-canonical polycomb repressive complex 1.1 (PRC1.1) in leukemia using Menin-KMT2A inhibitors and targeted degradation of NUP98 fusion proteins. Eviction of the NUP98 fusion-Menin-KMT2A complex from chromatin is not sufficient to silence pro-leukemogenic genes. In the absence of PRC1.1, key oncogenes remain transcriptionally active. Transition to a repressed chromatin state requires the accumulation of PRC1.1 and repressive histone modifications. We show that PRC1.1 loss leads to resistance to small-molecule Menin-KMT2A inhibitors in vivo. Therefore, a critical function of oncofusion proteins that hijack Menin-KMT2A activity is antagonizing repressive chromatin complexes.
