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

KRAS is the most commonly mutated isoform in RAS-driven cancers. In the early stage, KRAS was deemed as an "undruggable" cancer target due to the lack of suitable binding pockets. With the development of KRAS inhibitors in recent years, strategies that directly suppress oncogenic KRAS have achieved significant breakthroughs. In this review, we summarize recent advances in direct small-molecule KRAS inhibitors used for cancer therapy, highlighting their medicinal chemistry optimization processes. Moreover, new PROTACs targeting the KRAS mutation are also presented. Additionally, we put forward the challenges and prospects for the development of future KRAS inhibitors.
