Trial report in European journal of clinical pharmacology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

purposeTo determine the effects of steady-state concentrations of the selective S1P1 receptor modulator ponesimod on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single dose of a combined oral contraceptive, containing 1 mg norethisterone (NET) and 35 μg ethinyl estradiol (EE) and to investigate the effects on heart rate at different ponesimod doses within an up-titration regimen prior to co-administration of the contraceptive.

methodsTwenty-two healthy women (age: 29-60 years) received twice a single oral dose of the combined oral contraceptive, alone or in combination with multiple doses of 40 mg ponesimod attained by an up-titration regimen. Heart rate (HR) effects were assessed on the first day of each up-titration level. PK parameters of NET and EE were determined by non-compartmental analysis.

resultsGeometric mean ratios (ponesimod and contraceptive / contraceptive alone) of Cmax and AUC0-24 of NET were 0.87 (90 % CI: 0.80, 0.94) and 0.84 (90 % CI: 0.76, 0.93), respectively. Geometric mean ratios of Cmax and AUC0-24 of EE were 0.94 (90 % CI: 0.86, 1.03) and 0.95 (90 % CI: 0.89, 1.01), respectively. The maximum mean HR reduction after the first dose of 10 mg ponesimod was 12.4 bpm (SD ± 6.2) at 2.5 h post-dose. On Day 4 (first dose of 20 mg) and Day 7 (first dose of 40 mg) the maximum mean HR reduction was 4.3 bpm (SD ± 5.7) and 1.4 (SD ± 6.4), respectively, at 2.5 h post-dose compared to baseline.

conclusionNo clinically relevant PK interactions between ponesimod and the combined oral contraceptive were observed, therefore, efficacy of hormonal contraceptives is not expected to be affected by concomitant administration of ponesimod. The up-titration regimen showed that HR reductions are diminished upon repeated ponesimod administration.
