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

introductionPF-06438179, a potential biosimilar to Remicade

methodsAnalytical (small subset reported here) and nonclinical studies compared the structural, functional, and in vivo nonclinical similarity of PF-06438179 with Remicade sourced from the United States (infliximab-US) and/or European Union (infliximab-EU).

resultsThe peptide map profiles were superimposable, and peptide masses were the same, indicating identical amino acid sequences. Data on post-translational modifications, biochemical properties, and biological function provided strong support for analytical similarity. Administration of a single intravenous (IV) dose (10 or 50 mg/kg) of PF-06438179 or infliximab-EU to male rats was well tolerated. There were no test article-related clinical signs or effects on body weight or food consumption. Systemic exposures [maximum drug concentration (C

conclusionsThe analytical and nonclinical studies have supported advancement of PF-06438179 into global comparative clinical trials.
