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

purposeOur aim was to describe all serious cutaneous adverse drug reactions (ADRs) spontaneously reported in France for all oral protein kinase inhibitors, their characteristics and whether they were labeled (reported in the Summary of Product Characteristics) or not.

methodsWe performed a retrospective observational study in the French PharmacoVigilance Database, selecting for analysis serious cutaneous reactions of patients due to treatment with oral protein kinase inhibitors (erlotinib, gefitinib, imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib, sunitinib, sorafenib, pazopanib, lapatinib, everolimus) between 1 January 2008 and 31 December 31 2010.

resultsNinety-four patients suffered from 115 serious cutaneous reactions due to oral protein kinase inhibitors. Serious cutaneous reactions more frequently reported were maculo-papular rash (mostly with imatinib), followed by hand-foot syndrome (specifically with sorafenib) and papulopustular rash (particularly with erlotinib). Patients were mostly males (63 %) with a mean age of 62.6 ± 15.4 years. Drug withdrawal was observed in 73.1 % of cases because of these cutaneous reactions. Delay of occurrence of the ADR varied from 11.5 to 58.5 days. Unlabeled serious reactions were found (17.4 %), including skin ulceration, vasculitis or purpura with sorafenib or sunitinib and drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms with imatinib.

conclusionSome of the serious ADRs spontaneously reported with oral protein kinase inhibitors are labeled and commonly reported in the literature, but others occur only rarely and unlabeled. In our study, most serious ADRs occurred in males within the 2 first months of treatment and were responsible for the withdrawal of therapy with protein kinase inhibitors.
