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

purpose5-imino-13-deoxydoxorubicin (DIDOX; GPX-150) is a doxorubicin analog modified in two locations to prevent formation of cardiotoxic metabolites and reactive oxygen species. Preclinical studies have demonstrated anti-cancer activity without cardiotoxicity. A phase I study was performed in order to determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of GPX-150 in patients with metastatic solid tumors.

methodsGPX-150 was administered as an intravenous infusion every 21 days for up to 8 cycles. An accelerated dose escalation was used for the first three treatment groups. The dosing groups were (A) 14 mg/m(2), (B) 28 mg/m(2), (C), 56 mg/m(2), (D) 84 mg/m(2), (E) 112 mg/m(2), (F) 150 mg/m(2), (G) 200 mg/m(2), and (H) 265 mg/m(2). Pharmacokinetic samples were drawn during the first 72 h of cycle 1.

resultsThe MTD was considered to be reached at the highest dosing level of 265 mg/m(2) since dose reduction was required in 5 of 6 patients for neutropenia. The most frequent adverse events were neutropenia, anemia, fatigue, and nausea. No patients experienced cardiotoxicity while on the study. The best overall response was stable disease in four (20 %) patients. Pharmacokinetic analysis revealed an AUC of 8.0 (±2.6) μg · h/mL, a clearance of 607 (±210) mL/min/m(2) and a t1/2β of 13.8 (±4.6) hours.

conclusionsGPX-150 administered every 21 days has an acceptable side effect profile and no cardiotoxicity was observed. Further investigation is needed to determine the efficacy of GPX-150 in anthracycline-sensitive malignancies.
