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

Covalent small molecule activity probes can be powerful tools to interrogate protein function in native cellular environments. The design of family-wide activity probes requires an understanding of the molecular sources of general targeting potential and specificity to enable broad targeting of protein family members. Here, we developed and applied a multifaceted docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation pipeline to design and test cell-permeable covalent kinase activity probes from a set of hinge-binding pharmacophores. This computationally-guided approach yielded a new cell-active probe, K60P, which targets around 114 kinases across distinct kinase classes in live cells. Chemoproteomic profiling of this probe and a clinical candidate sharing the same indazole core, KW-2449, identified kinase and non-kinase target profiles that differ from recombinant protein assay profiles, underscoring the utility of native kinase profiling
