Long-term Safety and Efficacy of Dupilumab in Patients With Uncontrolled, Moderate-to-Severe Asthma Recruited From Korean Centers: A Subgroup Analysis of the Phase 3 LIBERTY ASTHMA TRAVERSE Trial.
Article in Allergy, asthma & immunology research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02134028 (Open-label Extension Study to Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Tolerability of Dupilumab in Patients With Asthma Who Participated in a Previous Dupilumab Asthma Clinical Study), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
purposeLong-term data are limited on the safety and efficacy of dupilumab in patients with uncontrolled, moderate-to-severe asthma from Korea. The current subgroup analysis was designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of dupilumab in patients enrolled from Korean centers in the parent studies (phase 2b and QUEST) and who participated in the TRAVERSE open-label extension (OLE) study.
methodsTRAVERSE was a global, multicenter, OLE study that assessed the safety and efficacy of dupilumab 300 mg every 2 weeks for up to 96 weeks in patients (n = 2,282) with uncontrolled, moderate-to-severe asthma who completed prior dupilumab asthma clinical trials. The primary outcome was the incidence of any treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs); the secondary outcomes included annualized severe exacerbation rate, pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (pre-BD FEV1), and 5-item Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-5) score.
resultsSafety outcomes were consistent with the parent studies and the overall TRAVERSE population; out of 74 patients, 70 experienced ≥ 1 TEAE, and 6 (8.1%) discontinued because of adverse events. During the treatment period, the unadjusted annualized severe exacerbation rate was low (0.470). Improvement in pre-BD FEV1 was seen as early as Week 2 with a mean change from the parent study baseline (PSBL), standard deviation (SD) of 0.42 L (0.47), which was sustained until Week 96. Mean change from PSBL (SD) in ACQ-5 score was -1.32 (0.76) at Week 48.
conclusionsThis subgroup analysis of TRAVERSE showed the long-term safety and efficacy of dupilumab in patients with uncontrolled, moderate-to-severe asthma enrolled from Korean centers.
