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

Background: Biosimilars represent a significant opportunity in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Our aim is to assess the effectiveness and safety of the five approved adalimumab (ADA) biosimilars in IBD patients naive to biologics. Methods: IBD patients naive to biologics from eight Spanish hospitals were enrolled. We included patients who started ADA biosimilars between November 2018 and January 2022. The study endpoints included (1) induction of remission at week 8; (2) drug persistence at the conclusion of the follow-up period; and (3) safety of the five ADA biosimilars. Results: In total, 383 patients were included. After induction, 63.8% of patients were in clinical remission. In total, 114 (29.8%) patients discontinued treatment during follow-up. Clinical remission was maintained in 78.4% of patients after a median follow-up of 18 (12-24) months. Dose intensification was performed in 35 (9.1%) patients during follow-up. There was no significant difference in effectiveness for the 5-ADA biosimilars. Additionally, drug persistence was significantly higher in Crohn's disease (CD) patients ( Conclusion: ADA biosimilars are safe and effective in inducing and maintaining remission in a real-life population of bio-naive IBD patients. Furthermore, there is no significant difference between the 5-ADA biosimilars. Drug persistence was significantly higher in patients with CD treated with IMM and with post-induction ADA levels ≥7 μg/mL.
