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

Polycythemia vera (PV) is a chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by excessive levels of platelets (PLT), white blood cells (WBC), and hematocrit (HCT). Givinostat (ITF2357) is a potent histone-deacetylase inhibitor that showed a good safety/efficacy profile in PV patients during phase I/II studies. A phase III clinical trial had been planned and an adaptive dosing protocol had been proposed where givinostat dose is iteratively adjusted every 28 days (one cycle) based on PLT, WBC, and HCT. As support, a simulation platform to evaluate and refine the proposed givinostat dose adjustment rules was developed. A population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model predicting the givinostat effects on PLT, WBC, and HCT in PV patients was developed and integrated with a control algorithm implementing the adaptive dosing protocol. Ten in silico trials in ten virtual PV patient populations were simulated 500 times. Considering an eight-treatment cycle horizon, reducing/increasing the givinostat daily dose by 25 mg/day step resulted in a higher percentage of patients with a complete hematological response (CHR), that is, PLT ≤400 × 10
