Intravenous Pharmacokinetics, Local Tolerability, and Hemolysis of an SBE7-β-Cyclodextrin Formulation of the Neurokinin-1 Receptor Antagonist Vestipitant.
Article in Clinical pharmacology in drug development, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Vestipitant is a potent and selective neurokinin 1 (NK-1) receptor antagonist that was investigated as a potential treatment for post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV). A previous mannitol-based formulation of vestipitant was associated with hemolytic activity in preclinical studies. In an effort to reduce the hemolytic potential and develop an IV formulation of vestipitant that could be administered more rapidly, an IV formulation containing sulfobutylether-7-beta-cyclodextrin (SBE7-β-CD, Captisol™) was developed and tested in a phase 1 clinical study. This was a randomized, single-blind (subjects and investigator-blinded, sponsor-unblinded), placebo controlled, dose escalation study in healthy subjects in which 7 cohorts of 8 subjects per cohort received SBE7-β-CD -based vestipitant (2 mg/mL) or placebo (saline) in a 3:1 ratio (active:placebo) at different doses and infusion rates. The results demonstrated the ability to infuse up to 48 mg vestipitant in a 2 mg/mL formulation over 30 seconds with no evidence of hemolytic effects. Cohorts of subjects at lower doses and longer infusion duration (>1 minute) reported more AEs related to the infusion site than those at the higher doses and faster infusion rates.
