The European Union Clinical Trials Regulation (EU CTR) provides new regulatory requirements for the preparation and submission of clinical trial documents. The United Kingdom Drug Information Association Medical Writing (UK DIA MW) Committee, with members from across the pharmaceutical industry, have reviewed the EU CTR and in this report, provide expert guidance on writing documents for submission in the EU CTR Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS) portal. Medical writers should be aware that the Investigator's Brochure containing the Reference Safety Information (RSI) must align with the annual safety report, and the RSI format must comply closely with the EU CTR.

Article Synopsis
  • The SPIN1 protein, which reads methyl-lysine marks, is critical in various human diseases but has proven difficult to target due to a lack of effective inhibitors.
  • Research led to the discovery of two new compounds: one that selectively inhibits SPIN1 and another that targets both SPIN1 and G9a/GLP, with the latter displaying high selectivity over other epigenetic targets.
  • The study confirmed the binding of the dual inhibitor to a specific domain of SPIN1 and showed its effectiveness in disrupting SPIN1 interactions in cells, along with being bioavailable in mice, providing valuable tools for studying SPIN1's biological functions.

Modifications of histone tails, including lysine/arginine methylation, provide the basis of a "chromatin or histone code". Proteins that contain "reader" domains can bind to these modifications and form specific effector complexes, which ultimately mediate chromatin function. The spindlin1 (SPIN1) protein contains three Tudor methyllysine/arginine reader domains and was identified as a putative oncogene and transcriptional coactivator.
