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

We assessed the pharmacokinetics (PK), tolerability and safety of tariquidar (TQD), a P-glycoprotein (Pgp) inhibitor, after intravenous administration of single ascending doses. Employed doses were up to 4-fold higher than in previous clinical trials in cancer patients and are capable of inhibiting Pgp at the blood-brain barrier. Fifteen male healthy volunteers were randomized to receive single intravenous doses of TQD at 4, 6 or 8 mg/kg body weight and underwent blood sampling for over 24 h. TQD concentrations were determined in plasma samples with high-performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. No dose-limiting toxicities of TQD were observed. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve from start until 24 h after the end of infusion was positively correlated with an administered TQD dose (r = 0.8981, p < 0.0001). Moreover, we found a positive correlation for volume of distribution at steady state (r = 0.7129, p = 0.0004) with TQD dose. Dose dependency of volume of distribution at steady state points to non-linear PK of TQD, which was in all likelihood caused by transporter saturation at high TQD doses. Acceptable safety and tolerability as well as dose-linear increases in plasma exposure support the future use of TQD at doses up to 8 mg/kg to inhibit Pgp at the human blood-brain barrier.
