Article in Clinical pharmacology and therapeutics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04720183 (A Phase 1, Fixed Sequence, Open-label, Drug-drug Interaction Study to Evaluate the Effect of GLPG3970 on the Pharmacokinetics of Sulfasalazine in Adult, Healthy Subjects), which is not on this map.

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.

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.

Abstract

GLPG3970 is a selective salt-inducible kinase 2/3 inhibitor intended for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. In vitro studies suggest GLPG3970 strongly inhibits breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), indicating a possible interaction with BCRP substrates such as sulfasalazine (SSZ; a probe substrate for intestinal BCRP inhibition) and methotrexate (MTX), both inflammatory disease medications. Two open-label, nonrandomized, phase I, drug-drug interaction (DDI) studies assessed the pharmacokinetics of SSZ 1,000 mg (NCT04720183) and MTX 7.5 mg (EudraCT: 2020-000391-37) with and without GLPG3970 350 mg. Healthy participants aged 18-55 years with wild-type homozygous BCRP genotype (c421C/C) received: SSZ on day (D)1, GLPG3970 + SSZ on D5, and GLPG3970 2 hours after SSZ on D9 (N = 8; SSZ/GLPG3970 DDI study); MTX on D1, GLPG3970 + MTX on D5, and GLPG3970 on D6-8 (N = 15; MTX/GLPG3970 DDI study). Primary end points were AUC and C
