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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesFostamatinib is a spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has been investigated as therapy for rheumatoid arthritis and immune thrombocytopenic purpura. The present studies assessed the potential for pharmacokinetic interaction between fostamatinib and the commonly prescribed medications oral contraceptive (OC), warfarin, and statins (rosuvastatin, simvastatin) in healthy subjects.

methodsThe OC study was a crossover study over two 28-day treatment periods (Microgynon(®) 30 plus placebo or fostamatinib). Concentrations of OC constituents (ethinyl estradiol/levonorgestrel) were measured. Effects on warfarin pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics were assessed (21-day study). Warfarin was administered on days 1 and 14, fostamatinib on days 8-20. The statin study was a two-period, fixed-sequence study of the effects of fostamatinib on exposure to rosuvastatin or simvastatin (single doses). Safety was assessed throughout.

resultsFostamatinib co-administration with OC increased exposure to ethinyl estradiol [area under the plasma concentration-time curve at steady state (AUCss) 28% [confidence interval (CI 90%) 21-36]; maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) at steady state (Cmax,ss) 34% (CI 26-43)], but not levonorgestrel (AUCss 5%; Cmax,ss -3%), while exposure to luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone decreased (≈ 20%). Fostamatinib did not affect the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of warfarin to a clinically relevant extent, but caused an upward trend in AUC for both R- and S-warfarin [18% (CI 13-23) and 13% (CI 7-19)]. Fostamatinib increased rosuvastatin AUC by 96% (CI 78-115) and Cmax by 88% (CI 69-110), and increased simvastatin acid AUC by 74% (CI 50-102) and Cmax by 83% (CI 57-113).

conclusionFostamatinib exhibits drug-drug interactions when co-administered with OC, simvastatin, or rosuvastatin, with the AUC of statins almost doubling. Fostamatinib did not exhibit a clinically relevant DDI on warfarin.
