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

Certain genetic polymorphisms of UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1 family, polypeptide A1 (UGT1A1) can reduce gene expression (*28, *60, *93) or activity (*6), thereby altering the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and the risk of toxicities of UGT1A1 substrates, of which irinotecan is a widely-described example. This review presents an overview of the clinical effects of UGT1A1 polymorphisms on the pharmacology of UGT1A1 substrates, with a special focus on the novel histone deacetylase inhibitor belinostat. Belinostat, approved for the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, is primarily glucuronidated by UGT1A1. Recent preclinical and clinical data showed that UGT1A1*28 was associated with reduced glucuronidation in human liver microsomes, while in a retrospective analysis of a Phase I trial with patients receiving belinostat UGT1A1*60 was predominantly associated with increased belinostat plasma concentrations. Furthermore, both UGT1A1*28 and *60 variants were associated with increased incidence of thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. Using population pharmacokinetic analysis a 33% dose reduction has been proposed for patients carrying UGT1A1 variant alleles. Clinical effects of this genotype-based dosing recommendation is currently prospectively being investigated. Overall, the data suggest that UGT1A1 genotyping is useful for improving belinostat therapy.
