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

purposeThe aims of this study were to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of repeated doses of palonosetron 0.75 mg on days 1 and 3 in Japanese patients who received highly or moderately emetogenic chemotherapy.

methodsTwenty- six patients received palonosetron 0.75 mg intravenously before chemotherapy on days 1 and 3 plus dexamethasone (12-16 mg before chemotherapy on day 1 and 4-8 mg on days 2 and 3). The primary endpoints were safety and pharmacokinetics. Pharmacokinetics were evaluated in a subset of patients (n=6). Complete response and complete protection were evaluated as secondary endpoints.

resultsThe accumulation ratios for C max and AUClast after the second dose on day 3 were 1.42 and 1.37, respectively. These values were consistent with the theoretical values expected from the half-life of palonosetron on day 1. Almost all of the patients had no nausea or vomiting in the acute phase (complete response (CR) rate, 96.2% [25/26]; CP rate, 92.3% [24/26]). In the delayed phase (24-192 h post-chemotherapy), the complete response and complete protection rates were 76.9% (20/26) and 61.5% (16/26), respectively. Treatment was well tolerated.

conclusionsThis is the first study to report the pharmacokinetics of multiple doses of palonosetron 0.75 mg, given on days 1 and 3, in Japanese patients. Repeated treatment with palonosetron was safe and well tolerated by patients who received highly or moderately emetogenic anticancer chemotherapy.
