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

objectivesAll-oral direct-acting antiviral regimens that include combinations of ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir, and dasabuvir with or without ribavirin were evaluated in hepatitis C virus-infected patients in phase II/III clinical studies. The objective of these analyses was to quantify the relationship between exposures of the components of the regimen and laboratory values and to determine covariates that could influence the relationship.

methodsExposure-safety response relationships between individual components of the direct-acting antiviral regimens and clinically important laboratory values were explored using data from 2998 patients from 11 phase II/III clinical studies. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify significant relationships between predictor variables and response variables.

resultsNo statistically significant associations were observed between ombitasvir, dasabuvir, or ritonavir exposures and maximum post-baseline alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or total bilirubin grade or minimum hemoglobin grade. A two-fold increase in paritaprevir exposure from therapeutic exposure was predicted to increase the probability of experiencing a grade 3 or higher increase in ALT by 0.5% and bilirubin by 1.1%. In the phase II/III clinical studies, ALT and bilirubin increases were reversible with continued dosing or after treatment cessation. Other correlates with adverse events of clinical importance included concomitant ribavirin treatment, sex, race, and presence of cirrhosis, consistent with previous observations.

conclusionsExposure-response analyses from phase II/III studies with the combination direct-acting antiviral regimen indicated no statistically significant relationships with ombitasvir, dasabuvir, or ritonavir exposure, but a statistically significant association was observed between paritaprevir exposure and the probability of experiencing a grade 3 or higher increase in ALT or bilirubin.
