Effects of Cytochrome P450 3A4 Induction and Inhibition on the Pharmacokinetics of BI 425809, a Novel Glycine Transporter 1 Inhibitor.
Article in European journal of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveIncreased glycine availability at the synaptic cleft may enhance N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor signalling and provide a promising therapeutic strategy for cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia. These studies aimed to assess the pharmacokinetics of BI 425809, a potent glycine-transporter-1 inhibitor, when co-administered with a strong cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) inhibitor (itraconazole) and inducer (rifampicin).
methodsIn vitro studies using recombinant CYPs, human liver microsomes, and human hepatocytes were conducted to determine the CYP isoforms responsible for BI 425809 metabolism. In addition, two open-label, fixed-treatment period, phase I studies in healthy male volunteers are described. Period 1: participants received oral BI 425809 25 mg (single dose) on day 1; period 2: participants received multiple doses, across 10 days, of oral itraconazole or rifampicin combined with a single dose of oral BI 425809 25 mg on day 4/7 of the itraconazole/rifampicin treatment, respectively. Pharmacokinetic and safety endpoints were assessed in the absence/presence of itraconazole/rifampicin and included area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) over the time interval 0-167 h (AUC
resultsIn vitro results suggested that CYP3A4 accounted for ≥ 90% of the metabolism of BI 425809. BI 425809 exposure (adjusted geometric mean ratio [%]) was higher in the presence of itraconazole (AUC
conclusionsSystemic exposure of BI 425809 was altered in the presence of strong CYP3A4 modulators, corroborating in vitro results that CYP3A4 mediates a major metabolic pathway for BI 425809.
