Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Eptinezumab in Healthy Chinese Participants: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
Trial report in Clinical drug investigation, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveMost evidence suggests that the pharmacokinetics of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are not meaningfully altered by patient characteristics, including racial/ethnic differences. Nevertheless, the pharmacokinetic profile of eptinezumab has not been evaluated in a Chinese population. This study was designed to confirm the hypothesis that the pharmacokinetic profile of the anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide mAb, eptinezumab, is similar in healthy Chinese individuals to that of healthy non-Asian individuals and non-Asian patients with migraine.
methodsOver a study period of 12 weeks, healthy adult Chinese participants (N = 20) were randomized (1:1) to receive a single intravenous dose of eptinezumab 100 mg (n = 10) or 300 mg (n = 10) in a prospective, single-site, open-label parallel-group trial. Blood samples for the evaluation of plasma eptinezumab concentrations were obtained over 84 days, and standard pharmacokinetic parameters were derived.
resultsMean maximum plasma concentrations (C
conclusionThe pharmacokinetic profile of eptinezumab in healthy Chinese individuals was generally similar to that reported for non-Asian populations with migraine, and eptinezumab was generally well tolerated. Evaluation of immunogenicity showed no evidence of an impact of anti-drug antibodies or neutralizing antibodies on safety profiles. This supports the globally approved doses of 100 mg and 300 mg as being appropriate for Chinese patients with episodic migraine or chronic migraine.
