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

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveInolimomab, a monoclonal antibody against interleukin (IL)-2Ralpha (CD25) has shown promising results in the treatment of corticosteroid-resistant acute graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). The objective of the present study was to characterise the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of inolimomab as first-line treatment in this condition.

methodsThe data came from 21 patients with acute GvHD (8 with an International Bone Marrow Transplant Registry [IBMTR] score of B, 11 with a score of C and 2 with a score of D) following haematopoietic stem cell transplantation after a median delay of 26 days (range 10-127 days). Inolimomab was administered at 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 or 0.4 mg/kg daily in association with methylprednisolone (2 mg/kg) for 8 or 16 days depending on the status at day 9. Then, for responder patients, administrations were continued three times weekly until day 28. Inolimomab concentrations and pharmacodynamic data (acute GvHD scores) were recorded during the study. The pharmacodynamic data were assessed in four grades according to the IBMTR and Glucksberg classification in parallel with Karnofsky scores. A population analysis was developed using a nonlinear mixed-effects model to define the pharmacokinetic model, to test covariates and, when apparent, to model the exposure-effect relationship by a proportional odds model. The modelling was finally qualified by a predictive check.

resultsThe best pharmacokinetic model was two-compartmental. For each score, the most demonstrative exposure-effect graphics linked the cumulative area under the concentration-time curve to cumulated probabilities of observing a specific score. This relationship was identified as a maximum effect model for the skin (with two patient subpopulations: sensitive/less sensitive) and a linear model for the intestinal tract and liver. No covariate was identified as influencing any of these parameters.

conclusionInolimomab exposure-effect relationships as first-line treatment for acute GvHD have been identified and modelled. The discovered dose-effect relationship allows confirmation of the treatment response, thereby establishing the first step towards optimising the inolimomab dosage in future trials.
