Gilteritinib and the risk of intracranial hemorrhage: a case series of a possible, under-reported side effect.
Article in Annals of hematology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Gilteritinib is currently approved for patients with relapsed/refractory AML with FLT3 mutations, based on the positive results of the pivotal ADMIRAL study. In ADMIRAL trial, no increased risk of bleeding was reported, but in the previous dose finding study, a single event of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) was registered after exposure to subtherapeutic doses of gilteritinib. Here, we report the first case series on five ICHs diagnosed in patients with FLT3-mutated AML, occurred within the first month of exposure to gilteritinib. Our cohort included 24 patients treated in three Italian centers. Most of these ICH cases were non-severe and self-limiting, while one was fatal. This link with ICHs remains in any case uncertain for the presence of active AML. We further reported that an analysis of the post-marketing surveillance data (EudraVigilance) retrieved other 11 cases of ICHs present in the database after gilteritinib treatment. A causality assessment was performed according to the Dx3 method to evaluate the possibility that ICHs might be an actual side effect of gilteritinib. In conclusion, further research is needed to elucidate the potential role of gilteritinib in the pathogenesis of ICHs.
