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.

Abstract

introductionOctreotide is a first-generation somatostatin receptor ligand (SRL) approved for acromegaly treatment. CAM2029 is a sustained-release subcutaneous octreotide injection designed to improve treatment convenience for patients and bioavailability over alternative SRL treatments. The aim of this analysis was to characterise the pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of CAM2029.

methodsUsing nonlinear mixed-effects modelling, 4098 observations from three trials, including 216 healthy participants and participants with acromegaly, were used to develop a population PK model of octreotide after administration of CAM2029 or immediate-release (IR) octreotide. Simulated octreotide plasma concentration profiles after administration of clinically justified dosing regimens of CAM2029 and octreotide IR were compared.

resultsOctreotide disposition was best described by a two-compartmental distribution with a first-order elimination model. The rapid initial and slow subsequent drug release of CAM2029 was best characterised by two simultaneous first-order absorption processes, whereas octreotide IR absorption was described by a single first-order pathway. The model was qualified to describe octreotide concentrations and supported the robustness of dosing CAM2029 every 4 weeks (Q4W) ± 1 week. Simulations indicated that the average concentration during a dosing interval at steady state for 20 mg CAM2029 Q4W was similar to 0.25 mg octreotide IR every 8 h, but with reduced daily fluctuation.

conclusionsThis population PK model supports the use of CAM2029 as a potential alternative treatment option to both octreotide IR and long-acting repeatable (LAR) for acromegaly treatment. The octreotide bioavailability for CAM2029 was similar to octreotide IR and approximately 5 to 6 fold higher than octreotide LAR, with a more rapid onset.
