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 is indicated to decrease the incidence of chemotherapy-induced febrile neutropenia. It is the first granulocyte-colony stimulating factor approved for prophylactic use regardless of carcinoma type and is marketed in Japan as G-LASTA (Kyowa Kirin Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan). MD-110 is a biosimilar of pegfilgrastim. This phase III, multicenter, open-label, single-arm study investigated the efficacy and safety of MD-110 in early-stage breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant or adjuvant myelosuppressive chemotherapy.

methodsA total of 101 patients received the study drug. Each patient received docetaxel 75 mg/m

resultsThe mean (SD) duration of severe neutropenia for MD-110 was 0.2 (0.4) days. The upper limit of the two-sided 95% confidence interval for the mean duration of severe neutropenia was 0.2 days, below the predefined threshold of 3.0 days. The incidence of febrile neutropenia, the secondary efficacy endpoint, was 6.9% (7/101). Adverse events, occurring in more than 50% of patients, were alopecia, constipation, and malaise, which are common side effects of TC chemotherapy. Antidrug antibodies were negative in all patients.

conclusionMD-110 was effective against chemotherapy-induced neutropenia. No additional safety concern, compared with the originator, was observed in patients with breast cancer receiving TC chemotherapy.(JapicCTI-205230).
