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

Azacitidine/venetoclax is the standard treatment for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) unfit for intensive chemotherapy. Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is the major metabolizing enzyme for venetoclax, and its inhibition can boost venetoclax. In the HOVON 171 phase 2 trial, patients with AML were treated with azacitidine/venetoclax/cobicistat. This 2-stage, open-label, multicenter phase 2 trial included a crossover run-in phase followed by an ongoing extension phase. In cycle 1, patients received standard-dose azacitidine/venetoclax. In cycle 2, cobicistat was added, and venetoclax was reduced to 50 mg. The primary end point was pharmacokinetic equivalence, defined as 90% confidence interval (CI) of geometric mean ratios (GMRs) >0.8 for area under the curve over 24 hours (AUC
