Article in Haemophilia : the official journal of the World Federation of Hemophilia, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01775618 (A Multi-center, Phase III, Non-controlled, Open-label Trial to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Efficacy of BAY94-9027 for Prophylaxis and Treatment of Bleeding in Previously Treated Children), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

introductionBAY 94-9027 (damoctocog alfa pegol; an extended half-life PEGylated recombinant factor VIII [FVIII]) demonstrated efficacy and safety in previously treated paediatric patients (PTPs) aged <12 years with severe haemophilia A in the PROTECT VIII Kids study (NCT01775618).

aimTo evaluate the long-term safety of BAY 94-9027 in PTPs aged <12 years at enrolment.

methodsIn the PROTECT VIII Kids study, boys <12 years with severe haemophilia A were enrolled in two age cohorts (6-<12 years and <6 years) and treated prophylactically twice weekly, every 5 days or every 7 days, with BAY 94-9027 for ≥50 exposure days (EDs). Patients who had completed ≥50 EDs and ≥6 months in the main study or 12-week safety expansion study were eligible to participate in the extension. Primary safety variable was frequency of inhibitor development; main efficacy variable was annualised bleeding rate (ABR).

resultsOf 73 PTPs from the main/expansion studies, 59 (81%) entered the extension phase for a median (range) duration of 5.0 (0.4-5.9) years. Overall, 39 patients completed ≥5 years of treatment. No patients developed FVIII inhibitors/anti-PEG antibodies, and two patients aged <6 years discontinued. Median ABR for total bleeds was 1.5 (<6 years) and 1.9 (6-<12 years). Total ABR improved in the extension vs. the main study. In the last 12 months of treatment, median spontaneous ABR was 0.0 in both age groups.

conclusionsBAY 94-9027 showed long-term safety and efficacy for the prevention and treatment of bleeds in younger and older paediatric patients with severe haemophilia A.
