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

purposeRivaroxaban is a direct oral anticoagulant with a large inter-individual variability. The present study is to develop a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to predict several scenarios in clinical practice.

methodsA whole-body PBPK model for rivaroxaban, which is metabolized by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4/5, 2J2 pathways and excreted via kidneys, was developed to predict the pharmacokinetics at different doses in healthy subjects and patients with hepatic or renal dysfunction. Hepatic clearance and drug-drug interactions (DDI) were estimated by in vitro in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) based on parameters obtained from in vitro experiments. To validate the model, observed concentrations were compared with predicted concentrations, and the impact of special scenarios was investigated.

resultsThe PBPK model successfully predicted the pharmacokinetics for healthy subjects and patients as well as DDIs. Sensitivity analysis shows that age, renal, and hepatic clearance are important factors affecting rivaroxaban pharmacokinetics. The predicted fold increase of rivaroxaban AUC values when combined administered with the inhibitors such as ketoconazole, ritonavir, and clarithromycin were 2.3, 2.2, and 1.3, respectively. When DDIs and hepatic dysfunction coexist, the fold increase of rivaroxaban exposure would increase significantly compared with one factor alone.

conclusionsOur study using PBPK modeling provided a reasonable approach to evaluate exposure levels in special patients under special scenarios. Although further clinical study or real-life experience would certainly merit the current work, the modeling work so far would at least suggest caution of using rivaroxaban in complicated clinical settings.
