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

introductionPegfilgrastim-cbqv (UDENYCA

methodsDuring this open-label, two-period crossover study, healthy adult males (N = 155) were randomly assigned (1:1 ratio) to receive a subcutaneous injection of pegfilgrastim-cbqv using a prefilled AI (n = 76) or a PFS (n = 79) in period 1. During period 2, participants received an injection using the other method. Primary PK and secondary PD parameters were calculated to assess the bioequivalence of the treatment as administered by the two delivery methods. Safety and immunogenicity were also assessed.

resultsThe 90% CIs of the geometric mean ratios for the PK and PD parameters were within the required range (80-125%), demonstrating bioequivalence between the pegfilgrastim-cbqv prefilled AI and PFS. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported by 75% and 74.1% of participants in the prefilled AI and PFS groups, respectively. The most common TEAEs in both treatment groups were myalgia, bone pain, and headache. AI-device-related TEAEs were injection site pain (1.4%) and injection site bruising (0.7%). The incidence of antidrug antibodies and neutralizing antibodies was low and was similar in both treatment sequences.

conclusionsThe bioequivalence of pegfilgrastim-cbqv administered using a prefilled AI and a PFS was established. The safety, including immunogenicity profiles, of pegfilgrastim-cbqv administered using the prefilled AI and the PFS were similar, with no new safety findings.
