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

Bortezomib (Velcade®) is a reversible proteasome inhibitor that shows potent antineoplastic activity, by inhibiting the constitutively increased proteasome activity in myeloma cells, and is approved as a first-line therapy for multiple myeloma (MM). Although clinically successful, bortezomib exhibits a relatively narrow therapeutic index and can induce dose-limiting toxicities such as thrombocytopenia. This study aims to develop a quantitative and predictive pharmacodynamic model to investigate bortezomib dosing-regimens in a rational and efficient manner. Mean temporal profiles of bortezomib pharmacokinetics, proteasome activity, M-protein concentrations, and platelet counts following bortezomib monotherapy were extracted from published clinical studies. A population-based meta-analysis of bortezomib anti-myeloma activity and thrombocytopenia was conducted sequentially with a Stochastic Approximation Expectation Maximization algorithm in Monolix. The final pharmacodynamic model integrates drug-target interactions and cell signaling dynamics with temporal biomarkers of clinical efficacy and toxicity. Bortezomib pharmacokinetics, disease progression, and platelet dynamic profiles were well characterized in MM patients, and a local sensitivity analysis of the final model suggests that increased proteasome concentration could ultimately attenuate bortezomib antineoplastic activity in MM patients. In addition, model simulations confirm that a once-weekly dosing schedule represents an optimal therapeutic regimen with comparable antineoplastic activity but significantly reduced risk of thrombocytopenia. In conclusion, a pharmacodynamic model was successfully developed, which provides a quantitative, mechanism-based platform for probing bortezomib dosing-regimens. Further research is needed to determine whether this model could be used to individualize bortezomib regimens to maximize antineoplastic efficacy and minimize thrombocytopenia during MM treatment.
