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

aimThe aim of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of DRL_BZ with that of EU-approved (reference medicinal product; RMP) and US-licensed (reference product; RP) bevacizumab (Avastin

methodsIn this double-blind, parallel-group, Phase 1 study (BZ-01-001), men aged 20-45 years were randomized 1:1:1 to receive a single intravenous infusion of 1 mg kg

resultsPrimary PK parameters were comparable across groups, and 90% confidence intervals for the geometric mean ratios of the primary PK endpoints were within the pre-specified equivalence margins (80-125%) for all pairwise comparisons (DRL_BZ vs. RMP, DRL_BZ vs. RP and RMP vs. RP). No deaths or serious adverse events were reported. Similar numbers of subjects reported similar numbers of treatment-emergent adverse events in the three treatment groups. One subject who received DRL_BZ had anti-drug antibodies at the Day 85 visit; however, no anti-drug antibodies were detected in this subject at the 12-month follow-up visit.

conclusionsPK, safety and immunogenicity of DRL_BZ were comparable to EU-approved and US-licensed bevacizumab in healthy male subjects.
