Factors associated with anti-drug antibody production in ankylosing spondylitis patients treated with the infliximab biosimilar CT-P13.

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
Objective: CT-P13, a biosimilar of infliximab, is widely used for treating ankylosing spondylitis (AS). However, the formation of anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) can reduce its efficacy. This study aimed to identify risk factors associated with high ADA levels in AS patients treated with CT-P13. Methods: A prospective observational study enrolled patients with intravenous CT-P13. Clinical data and disease activity was assessed at baseline, 24 weeks, and 54 weeks after CT-P13 treatment. Blood concentrations of CT-P13 and ADAs were measured at 24 and 54 weeks, and their correlation was investigated. Patients were grouped by ADA levels at 54 weeks. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression identified factors associated with high ADA concentrations. Results: A total of 34 patients was enrolled. Significant decreases in Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index scores were observed relative to baseline after 24 weeks of CT-P13 therapy. Serum concentrations of CT-P13 and ADA levels increased following treatment. The median serum CT-P13 concentration was 17.6 [12.8, 22.7] µg/mL at 24 weeks and 23.5 [11.7, 34.2] µg/mL at 54 weeks. ADA levels were 6.7 [6.5, 9.1] AU/mL at 24 weeks and 11.4 [9.0, 28.4] AU/mL at 54 weeks. The serum concentrations of CT-P13 and ADA exhibited a negative correlation. In multivariable analysis, current smoking was associated with high ADA production at 54 weeks. Conclusion: Smoking is identified as a significant risk factor for elevated ADAs in AS patients treated with CT-P13. The findings underscore the importance of smoking-cessation strategies in the management of AS patients.
