Impact of Batoclimab Treatment on LDL-C with and Without Coadministration of Atorvastatin: Results from a Phase I Randomized Study in Healthy Participants.

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
introductionBatoclimab is an anti-neonatal fragment crystallizable receptor monoclonal antibody in clinical development for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. In phase II trials, batoclimab resulted in dose-dependent reductions in pathogenic immunoglobulin G autoantibodies; however, dose-related increases in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and other lipids were observed.
objectiveThis study examined the relationship between batoclimab treatment and lipid levels, and whether increases in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol could be mitigated by coadministration with atorvastatin, a widely used cholesterol-lowering agent.
methodsIn this phase I, randomized, fixed-sequence, single-blind trial, 70 healthy participants received subcutaneous injections of batoclimab at various doses or placebo for 6 weeks. Open-label oral atorvastatin was coadministered in a subset of participants receiving batoclimab 340 mg or 680 mg weekly, starting 14 days before the first dose of the study drug, and continuing through the 6-week treatment period and 8-week safety follow-up. Key endpoints included changes in lipid parameters and atorvastatin pharmacokinetics.
resultsDose-dependent increases in total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were observed with batoclimab doses ≥ 255 mg weekly, comparable to previous observations, whereas coadministration of atorvastatin 10 mg or 40 mg daily mitigated these changes. Batoclimab had little effect on atorvastatin pharmacokinetics. Dose-dependent decreases in serum albumin up to 37% were observed with batoclimab doses ≥ 255 mg weekly, returning to near-baseline levels 4 weeks after stopping batoclimab. As expected, coadministration of atorvastatin did not meaningfully impact the albumin level. The majority of adverse events were mild in severity.
conclusionsAtorvastatin can mitigate clinically significant increases in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol that may occur with batoclimab treatment.
