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

Quizartinib is an oral, once-daily, highly potent and selective second-generation, type II FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) inhibitor, approved for the treatment of newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory (R/R) FLT3-internal tandem duplication (ITD)-positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This descriptive, observational post-marketing surveillance (PMS) investigated the safety of quizartinib in patients with R/R FLT3-ITD-positive AML who initiated quizartinib between October 2019 and December 2021 in Japan. The safety analysis dataset included 126 patients (mean age 60.4 years) who consented to data publication. Eighty patients (63.5%) had previously received another FLT3 inhibitor. The median treatment duration was 71.0 days. Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) occurred in 68 patients (54.0%); grade ≥ 3 and serious ADRs occurred in 44 (34.9%) and 20 (15.9%) patients, respectively. QT interval prolongation occurred in 18/124 patients (14.5%), and the first event typically occurred < 30 days, but sometimes ≥ 150 days, after quizartinib initiation; none of these patients experienced clinical symptoms associated with the ADR. This PMS showed that the safety profile of quizartinib in routine clinical practice in Japanese patients with R/R FLT3-ITD-positive AML did not differ from the known safety profile of quizartinib. QT interval prolongation was manageable with current risk minimization measures.
