Trial report in Haematologica, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00541866 (Phase 1b/2, Open-Label, Multicenter, Dose-Escalating, Clinical Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and PK and PD Profiles of Voreloxin Injection in Combination With Cytarabine in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory AML), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

Vosaroxin is a first-in-class anticancer quinolone derivative that intercalates DNA and inhibits topoisomerase II. This study assessed the safety and tolerability of vosaroxin plus cytarabine in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Escalating vosaroxin doses (10-minute infusion; 10-90 mg/m(2); days 1, 4) were given in combination with cytarabine on one of two schedules: schedule A (24-hour continuous intravenous infusion, 400 mg/m(2)/day, days 1-5) or schedule B (2-hour intravenous infusion, 1 g/m(2)/day, days 1-5). Following dose escalation, enrollment was expanded at the maximum tolerated dose. Of 110 patients enrolled, 108 received treatment. The maximum tolerated dose of vosaroxin was 80 mg/m(2) for schedule A (dose-limiting toxicities: grade 3 bowel obstruction and stomatitis) and was not reached for schedule B (recommended phase 2 dose: 90 mg/m(2)). In the efficacy population (all patients in first relapse or with primary refractory disease treated with vosaroxin 80-90 mg/m(2); n=69), the complete remission rate was 25% and the complete remission/complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery rate was 28%. The 30-day all-cause mortality rate was 2.5% among all patients treated at a dose of 80-90 mg/m(2). Based upon these results, a phase 3 trial of vosaroxin plus cytarabine was initiated in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia. (Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT00541866).
