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

backgroundReceptor occupancy (RO) assays measure drug target engagement, and are used as pharmacodynamic (PD) biomarkers. RO assays are commonly performed by flow cytometry and often require multiplexing for assessment of multiple PD biomarkers when specimen volumes are limited. We present multiplexed RO assays for an IGF1R-EGFR bispecific antibody (Bs-Ab) and a CTLA4-Ig recombinant fusion protein to demonstrate key considerations for accurate RO assessment.

methodsRO in cynomolgus monkeys was determined in whole blood using flow cytometry. Free and total receptors were measured using anti-receptor fluorescence-labeled detection reagents, competitive and noncompetitive to drug, respectively.

resultsRO of IGF1R was examined as PD for Bs-Ab, since IGF1R was expressed on blood cells. Multiplexed measurements of free and total IGF1R showed that IGF1R expression measured by total receptor was highly variable, impacting interpretation of free-IGF1R. Normalization of free-over-total IGF1R measurements compensated for variability of receptor expression allowing for accurate RO assessment. RO of CTLA4-Ig, a recombinant fusion protein targeting CD80 and CD86 receptors, was multiplexed to simultaneously measure target engagements for both receptors. Both RO methods demonstrated specificity of receptor measurements without cross-reactivity to each other in multiplexed formats. RO methods were used for evaluation of PD activity of Bs-Ab and CTLA4-Ig in cynomolgus monkeys. In both cases, RO results showed dose-dependent target engagement, corresponding well to the pharmacokinetics.

conclusionsMultiplexed RO methods allowed accurate assessment of PD activity for Bs-Ab and CTLA4-Ig, facilitating development of these biopharmaceuticals from preclinical to clinical stages.
