An Automated Homogeneous Immunoassay for Quantitating Imatinib Concentrations in Plasma.
Article in Therapeutic drug monitoring, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
backgroundImatinib pharmacokinetic variability and the relationship of trough concentrations with clinical outcomes have been extensively reported. Although physical methods to quantitate imatinib exist, they are not widely available for routine use. An automated homogenous immunoassay for imatinib has been developed, facilitating routine imatinib testing.
methodsImatinib-selective monoclonal antibodies, without substantial cross-reactivity to the N-desmethyl metabolite or N-desmethyl conjugates, were produced. The antibodies were conjugated to 200 nm particles to develop immunoassay reagents on the Beckman Coulter AU480 analyzer. These reagents were analytically validated using Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute protocols. Method comparison to liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was conducted using 77 plasma samples collected from subjects receiving imatinib.
resultsThe assay requires 4 µL of sample without pretreatment. The nonlinear calibration curve ranges from 0 to 3000 ng/mL. With automated sample dilution, concentrations of up to 9000 ng/mL can be quantitated. The AU480 produces the first result in 10 minutes and up to 400 tests per hour. Repeatability ranged from 2.0% to 6.0% coefficient of variation, and within-laboratory reproducibility ranged from 2.9% to 7.4% coefficient of variation. Standard curve stability was 2 weeks and on-board reagent stability was 6 weeks. For clinical samples with imatinib concentrations from 438 to 2691 ng/mL, method comparison with LC-MS/MS gave a slope of 0.995 with a y-intercept of 24.3 and a correlation coefficient of 0.978.
conclusionsThe immunoassay is suitable for quantitating imatinib in human plasma, demonstrating good correlation with a physical method. Testing for optimal imatinib exposure can now be performed on routine clinical analyzers.
