Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Long-Acting Release Formulations of Pasireotide (SOM230) in a Male Population Who Are Hyperendemic Hepatitis B/C and Chronic Kidney Disease: An Open-Label, Phase I Study.
Trial report in European journal of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundIn patients with kidney or hepatic diseases, an increment of circulating pasireotide is also expected. Therefore, this open-label, phase I study aimed to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profiles and safety of subcutaneous (SC) and long-acting release (LAR) intramuscular injections of pasireotide in male Taiwanese volunteers who are hyperendemic hepatitis B/C and chronic kidney disease (CKD).
methodsA total of 45 male volunteers were randomized to receive one of nine treatment sequences, involving a single subcutaneous injection of 300, 600, or 900 μg pasireotide, a multiple SC injection of the same dosage of pasireotide [300, 600, or 900 μg, twice daily (b.i.d.) for 4 days and a single dose for 1 day], and a single dose of 20, 40, or 60 mg LAR pasireotide intramuscular injection. The pasireotide SC and LAR formulations were prepared and supplied to the study center by Novartis. Pharmacokinetic parameters were assessed from both formulations. All adverse events that occurred in participants throughout the study period, including abnormalities in fasting levels of glucose, insulin, and glucagon, as well as laboratory measurements and electrocardiograms, were recorded.
resultsAnalysis of plasma concentration over time revealed a rapid absorption of pasireotide, with a maximal concentration at 0.5 h after SC injection(s) of pasireotide (300-900 µg). Following a single dose of pasireotide LAR (20-60 mg), a sustained release was observed following an initial increase on day 1, a plateau around day 20, and a decline over the next 7 weeks.
conclusionsBoth pasireotide formulations showed dose-proportional pharmacokinetics and 300-900 μg of SC pasireotide and 20-60 mg LAR pasireotide treatment showed favorable safety profiles and was well-tolerated when administered in male Taiwanese volunteers who are hyperendemic hepatitis B/C and CKD.
