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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundFimepinostat, an oral dual inhibitor of histone deacetylase (HDAC) and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K), has shown activity in preclinical models of Myc-driven pediatric malignancies. This Phase 1 trial aimed to determine the recommended pediatric Phase 2 dose (RPP2D), describe the toxicity profile, and evaluate the pharmacokinetics of fimepinostat in children with relapsed and refractory solid and central nervous system (CNS) tumors.

methodsThis multicenter, Phase 1 study enrolled patients ages 1-21 years with relapsed or refractory solid tumors, CNS tumors, or lymphoma. The dose-escalation phase followed a 3 + 3 design, starting at 27.5 mg/m

resultsTwenty-six patients were enrolled, with 25 receiving treatment. The median age was 13.6 years (range: 4.1-20.9). In the dose-escalation phase, 12 patients were evaluable for DLT assessment. The RPP2D was initially determined to be 45 mg/m

conclusionFimepinostat was tolerable at a dose of 35 mg/m
