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.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND

objectiveCT-P16 (Vegzelma

methodsConcentration data from one phase III trial (NCT03676192) and two phase I trials (NCT03247673; CT-P16 1.2) were pooled. The population pharmacokinetic analysis used nonlinear mixed-effects modelling in NONMEM

resultsA total of 8058 serum concentrations from 834 subjects (phase I: 187 healthy male volunteers; phase III: 649 patients with non-small cell lung cancer) were analyzed. A two-compartment model with first-order elimination adequately described the pooled data. Body weight, sex, and disease status were retained as covariates on clearance; sex, baseline serum albumin, and disease status were retained on central volume of distribution. Drug product was not retained as a significant covariate, indicating no clinically meaningful difference between CT-P16 and either EU-Avastin

conclusionsWithin a unified population pharmacokinetic framework, CT-P16 demonstrated comparable pharmacokinetics to both EU-Avastin CLINICAL
