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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesThe PROVENT study demonstrated the efficacy and safety of a single 300-mg dose of AZD7442 (tixagevimab/cilgavimab) for pre-exposure prophylaxis of COVID-19 in at-risk individuals. Here we report an analysis of repeat dosing of intramuscular AZD7442 300 and 600 mg from the PROVENT sub-study.

methodsThe sub-study enrolled eligible participants from the parent study, creating four sub-study groups. Group 1 received AZD7442 300 mg in PROVENT followed by one 300-mg dose in the sub-study (10-14 months apart). Group 2 received placebo in PROVENT followed by two AZD7442 300-mg doses 6 months apart in the sub-study. Group 3a received AZD7442 300 mg in PROVENT followed by one 300-mg dose and two 600-mg doses 6 months apart in the sub-study. Group 3b received placebo in PROVENT followed by one 300-mg dose and two 600-mg doses 6 months apart in the sub-study. The primary endpoint was safety. Secondary endpoints included pharmacokinetics and anti-drug antibody (ADA) responses.

resultsAdverse events (AEs) and serious AEs (SAEs) were reported in 75.7-81.5% and 13.2-16.8% of participants, respectively. AZD7442-related AEs, SAEs, and AEs of special interest occurred in 1.4-5.3%, 0-0.2%, and 0-5.3% of participants, respectively, and 3.9-6.7% experienced ≥ 1 cardiac and/or thromboembolic SAE. AZD7442 serum concentrations were dose-dependent with minimal accumulation following redosing, and 4.1-10.7% had treatment-emergent ADAs to AZD7442.

conclusionsAZD7442 safety, pharmacokinetic, and ADA response profiles were similar regardless of repeat dosing schedule, and consistent with single-dose study data. These results may support future use of long-acting antibodies. CLINICALTRIALS: GOV REGISTRATION: NCT04625725.
