FGFR1 Inhibition by Pemigatinib Enhances Radiosensitivity in Glioblastoma Stem Cells Through S100A4 Downregulation.

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
Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive and highly heterogeneous tumor that frequently recurs despite surgery followed by radio-chemotherapy and, more recently, TTFields. This recurrence is largely driven by glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs), which are intrinsically resistant to standard therapies. Identifying molecular targets that underlie this resistance is therefore critical. Here, we investigated whether the inhibition of FGFR1, previously identified as a key mediator of GBM radioresistance, using pemigatinib, a selective FGFR1-3 inhibitor, could enhance GSC radiosensitivity in vitro and in vivo. Pemigatinib treatment inhibited FGFR1 signaling, promoted proteasome-dependent FGFR1 degradation, and reduced the viability, neurosphere formation, and sphere size in GSCs with unmethylated MGMT, a subgroup known for poor response to standard treatments. In MGMT-unmethylated differentiated GBM cell lines, pemigatinib combined with temozolomide further enhanced radiosensitivity. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that pemigatinib treatment led to the downregulation of
