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

backgroundProphylaxis of hemophilia B, at present, requires multiple infusions of human factor (F)IX concentrates per week. A FIX molecule with a prolonged half-life has the potential to greatly improve the convenience of, and adherence to, prophylaxis.

objectivesThe aim of our studies was to investigate the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profile of a recombinant fusion protein linking coagulation FIX with albumin (rIX-FP).

methodsCynomolgus monkeys and hemophilia B dogs received single intravenous doses of rIX-FP (50-500 IU kg(-1)). rIX-FP plasma levels were determined by an activity-based assay (dogs only) and anti-FIX ELISA methods. Additionally, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) was determined in hemophilia B dogs. Data were compared with a direct study comparator (recombinant FIX [rFIX]) or previously published data.

resultsThe terminal half-life of rIX-FP was prolonged in both species compared with FIX reference data. In hemophilia B dogs, human FIX antigen levels remained above 0.05 IU mL(-1) more than three times longer after rIX-FP (7.3 days) compared with rFIX (2.3 days), whereas respective calculations based on activity levels confirmed the observed superior profile. Prolonged PDs of rIX-FP were demonstrated with APTT<60 s sustained around four times longer with rIX-FP (5.9 days) than rFIX (1.5 days).

conclusionsThese studies indicate that the recombinant albumin fusion technology successfully improves the PK profile of FIX. Clinical studies will test whether the improved kinetics result in a significant half-life extension in patients with hemophilia B.
