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

Targeting the protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy in cancer treatment. The phase 1 clinical trial for GSK3368715, the first PRMT1 inhibitor to enter the clinic, was terminated early due to a lack of clinical efficacy, extensive treatment-emergent effects, and dose-limiting toxicities. The incidence of the latter two events may be associated with inhibition-driven pharmacology as a high and sustained concentration of inhibitor is required for therapeutic effect. The degradation of PRMT1 using a proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) may be superior to inhibition as proceeds via event-driven pharmacology where a PROTAC acts catalytically at a low dose. PROTACs containing the same pharmacophore as GSK3368715, combined with a motif that recruits the VHL or CRBN E3-ligase, were synthesised. Suitable cell permeability and target engagement were shown for selected candidates by the detection of downstream effects of PRMT1 inhibition and by a NanoBRET assay for E3-ligase binding, however the candidates did not induce PRMT1 degradation. This paper is the first reported investigation of PRMT1 for targeted protein degradation and provides hypotheses and insights to assist the design of PROTACs for PRMT1 and other novel target proteins.
