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

backgroundThis study sought to clarify the factors involved in virologic failure in patients with HCV receiving retreatment with glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) in real-world practice.

methodsForty-two patients who had previously received direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) therapies consisting of 35, 3, 3, and 1 patient(s) with genotype (GT)-1b, GT-2a, GT-2b, and GT-3b HCV, respectively, received GLE/PIB for 12 weeks. Resistance-associated substitutions (RASs) at baseline were evaluated, and the dynamics of NS5A-RASs were assessed by deep sequencing in patients showing virologic failure.

resultsBaseline NS5A-RASs were found in all the patients with GT-1b HCV including 16 patients with NS3-RASs. In contrast, both NS5A-RASs and NS3-RASs were absent in 3 and 2 patients with GT-2a and GT-2b HCV, respectively. Virologic failure occurred in 3 patients with GT-1b HCV with NS5A-P32del, while a sustained virologic response (SVR) was achieved in the remaining 39 patients including those with GT-1b HCV carrying NS5A-L31V + Y93H and NS5A-A92K. Virologic failure even occurred in a patient in whom the NS5A-P32del HCV strains had become undetectable by direct sequencing, and the percentage of such strains relative to the total HCV strains was 10%, as determined by deep sequencing. In the other patient with GT-1b HCV with NS5A-P32del, NS3-A156A/V/S were found at 4 weeks after GLE/PIB therapy, but had disappeared at 11 weeks, as determined by direct sequencing.

conclusionsGLE/PIB was effective for patients with HCV who failed to achieve an SVR after prior DAA therapies except in those with GT-1b HCV carrying NS5A-P32del even when such strains became undetectable by direct sequencing.
