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

Apixaban could be a potential treatment option for the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL). This analysis describes an updated two-compartment population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model that characterizes the PK variability of apixaban in pediatric patients with ALL or LL treated with asparaginase using PK data from a phase III study (PREVAPIX). Patient type of ALL or LL was found to be a significant covariate on the apparent central volume of distribution (Vc/F) and first-order absorption rate (Ka). Pediatric patients (aged 9 months to < 18 years) with ALL or LL had a 52.4% lower Ka compared with adults; this was 81.1% lower than other pediatric patients (9 months to < 18 years) at risk of VTE. Apixaban Vc/F was estimated to be 43.1% lower in pediatric patients compared with adult patients. The updated PPK model was used to simulate and confirm apixaban fixed-dose by weight-tiered regimen-achieved target exposures in pediatric patients (aged 28 days to < 18 years) with ALL or LL. In addition, a PK/pharmacodynamic (PD) analysis was performed using a linear regression model to characterize the relationship between anti-FXa activity (AXA) and apixaban concentration in pediatric patients with ALL or LL. The characterization of apixaban PK and PK/PD in this analysis contributes to evidence that apixaban could be a potential antithrombotic option in pediatric patients.
