Safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of faldaprevir after single increasing doses in healthy subjects.
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Faldaprevir (FDV) is a novel NS3/NS4A inhibitor used in the treatment of hepatitis C infection in an interferon-free regimen. This study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of FDV following a single dose in healthy male subjects and assessed the effect of food on FDV bioavailability. In the placebo-controlled, randomized, single-blind, single-increasing-dose part of the study (Part 1), 64 healthy male subjects were randomized to receive FDV in PEG/TRIS/meglumine solution at one of eight dose levels (4-1,200 mg, n = 6 per dose group) or placebo (n = 2 per dose group). In Part 2, the effect of food on the relative bioavailability (rBA) of 480 mg FDV in solution was evaluated in an open-label, crossover comparison, with and without a high-fat breakfast, in an additional 10 subjects (8 FDV and 2 placebo). Following single doses of 4-1,200 mg FDV, geometric mean (gMean) C
