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

backgroundSeveral cancer therapies can prolong cardiac repolarization. This study assessed the potential of eribulin to affect cardiac repolarization in patients with advanced solid tumors.

methodsIn this Phase I, open-label, single-arm study, patients received eribulin mesylate (1.4 mg/m(2); Days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle). The primary objective was to assess the effect of eribulin on the QTcF pre- and post-infusion; QTcF and QTcNi were compared for ability to remove heart-rate dependence of the QT interval. Relationship between concentration of eribulin and ΔQTc was explored using linear mixed-effects analysis. Secondary objectives explored pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability.

resultsTwenty-six patients were enrolled. QTcNi was more effective than QTcF in correcting for heart-rate dependency of the QT interval. On Day 1, mean ΔQTcNi were ~0 at all timepoints. An apparent time-dependent increase in ΔQTc was observed: on Day 8, changes from baseline were larger and more variable, without clear relation to plasma levels of eribulin. Day 8 predose ΔQTcNi was 5 ms, post-infusion mean values ranged from 2 to 9 ms (largest mean ΔQTcNi at 6 h). No new or unexpected toxicities were reported.

conclusionEribulin demonstrated an acceptable safety profile and a minor prolongation of QTc not expected to be of clinical concern in oncology patients.
