Role of mixed ion channel effects in the cardiovascular safety assessment of the novel anti-MRSA fluoroquinolone JNJ-Q2.
Trial report in British journal of pharmacology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
background and purposeJNJ-Q2, a novel broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone with anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus activity, was evaluated in a comprehensive set of non-clinical and clinical cardiovascular safety studies. The effect of JNJ-Q2 on different cardiovascular parameters was compared with that of moxifloxacin, sparfloxacin and ofloxacin. Through comparisons with these well-known fluoroquinolones, the importance of effects on compensatory ion channels to the cardiovascular safety of JNJ-Q2 was investigated. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: JNJ-Q2 and comparator fluoroquinolones were evaluated in the following models/test systems: hERG-transfected HEK293 cells sodium channel-transfected CHO cells, guinea pig right atria, arterially perfused rabbit left ventricular wedge preparations and in vivo studies in anaesthetized guinea pigs, anaesthetized and conscious telemetered dogs, and a thorough QT study in humans. KEY
resultsThe trend for effects of JNJ-Q2 on Tp-Te, QT, QRS and PR intervals in the non-clinical models and the plateau in QTc with increasing plasma concentration in humans are consistent with offsetting sodium and calcium channel activities that were observed in the non-clinical studies. These mixed ion channel activities result in the less pronounced or comparable increase in QTc interval for JNJ-Q2 compared with moxifloxacin and sparfloxacin despite its greater in vitro inhibition of I(Kr). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Based on the non-clinical and clinical cardiovascular safety assessment, JNJ-Q2 has a safe cardiovascular profile for administration in humans with comparable or reduced potential to prolong QT intervals, compared with moxifloxacin. The results demonstrate the importance of compensatory sodium and calcium channel activity in offsetting potassium channel activity for compounds with a fluoroquinolone core.
