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

purposeSeviteronel is an orally-administered selective cytochrome P450c17a 17,20-lyase and androgen receptor inhibitor with anti-tumor activity in vitro and in vivo, and clinical activity in men with advanced castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and men and women with advanced breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of seviteronel across the aforementioned populations.

methodsThis report describes the PK of seviteronel (50-750 mg, QD or BID) using noncompartmental and population approaches from 243 patients with advanced breast or prostate cancer pooled across 4 clinical studies. First dose and steady-state PK were examined, as well as covariates including prandial status, sex and concomitant dexamethasone.

resultsSeviteronel PK can be characterized by transit absorption and a bi-phasic first-order elimination while accounting for covariance between random effects. Prandial status did not significantly affect any parameters to a clinically-relevant extent. Both sex and body weight were significant covariates on clearance, explaining 37% of the interindividual variability on that parameter. There were no significant effects from the race or the presence of a corticosteroid (either dexamethasone or prednisone).

conclusionsSeviteronel demonstrates linear PK over the dose range of 50-750 mg given either BID or QD in men with advanced CRPC or men and women with breast cancer. The disposition of seviteronel following oral administration is well described by this population PK model and can be used for accurate simulations for future studies with body weight and sex affecting clearance, but not to a clinically-meaningful degree requiring a change in the current dosing scheme.
