Application of systems biology to identify pharmacological mechanisms of thrombotic microangiopathy evoked by combined activated prothrombin complex concentrate and emicizumab.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Emicizumab is a bispecific monoclonal antibody that substitutes for the function of missing or deficient factor VIII (FVIII) in people with hemophilia A (PwHA). Long-term safety and efficacy of emicizumab have been demonstrated in several clinical trials. Nevertheless, in the first of these, three cases of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) occurred in PwHA treated with emicizumab receiving high doses of activated prothrombin complex concentrate (aPCC), a bypassing agent used for treating breakthrough bleeds when FVIII neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) make FVIII replacement ineffective. The aim of the present work is to offer a method to elucidate the pathophysiological and pharmacological mechanisms involved in this treatment-induced TMA. Systems biology and machine learning-based Therapeutic Performance Mapping System is a validated in silico technology that allowed us to construct models of potential mechanisms behind induced TMA. Two drug combinations were modeled and assessed: emicizumab plus aPCC and emicizumab plus recombinant activated factor VII (another bypassing agent). Our models showed that both combinations were related to activation of the coagulation cascade. However, mechanisms involved mainly in platelet activation and possibly in complement activation were detected only for emicizumab plus aPCC, potentially explaining the occurrence of TMA only in this combination.
