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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesIslatravir (MK-8591) is a novel nucleoside analogue in development for the treatment and prevention of HIV-1 infection. Doravirine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of islatravir and doravirine coadministration in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, fixed-sequence study.

methodsAdult participants without HIV infection were administered oral doravirine 100 mg (n = 10) or placebo (n = 4) once daily (QD) for 5 days, immediately followed by oral islatravir 2.25 mg (n = 10) or placebo QD (n = 4) for 14 days; islatravir 2.25 mg and doravirine 100 mg QD, or placebo QD, were then coadministered for 5 days. Pharmacokinetic and safety data were collected.

resultsDoravirine geometric least-squares mean ratios (90% confidence intervals (CIs)) of (doravirine + islatravir)/doravirine for the area under the plasma drug concentration-time curve over 24 h (AUC

conclusionThese results indicate that coadministration of islatravir and doravirine had no clinically meaningful effect on the pharmacokinetics of either drug, and support further clinical investigation of islatravir in combination with doravirine for the treatment of HIV-1 infection.
