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

Model-informed drug development (MIDD) entails applying quantitative approaches to assist with decision-making during drug development and has been used for dose optimization, to inform clinical trial design, and to support clinical trial waivers. With increasing cost and competitiveness in drug development, the use of tools that improve efficiency, like MIDD, is increasingly crucial. A unique case for the successful application of MIDD approaches from early Phase 1 through postapproval for the upadacitinib development program is described herein. Upadacitinib is an orally administered selective Janus kinase inhibitor, which is approved for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, atopic dermatitis, axial spondylarthritis, nonradiographic axial spondyloarthritis, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease for adults, in addition to recent approvals for polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis and pediatric patients with psoriatic arthritis. Applications and impact of modeling and simulation approaches for informing key development decisions are presented to highlight the success of using MIDD for the clinical development of upadacitinib. The lessons learned can provide a framework for the clinical development of other drugs.
