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: Organic Anion Transporting Polypeptide (OATP) 1B1/3 inhibition can lead to clinically significant drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Coproporphyrin-I (CP-I) is an established endogenous biomarker for assessing the OATP1B inhibitory activity of new chemical entities. However, current physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models for CP-I are restricted to proprietary software, limiting widespread adoption and collaboration. Methods: We developed and qualified an open-source PBPK model for CP-I using the Open Systems Pharmacology (OSP) Suite. The model describes the endogenous synthesis and OATP1B1/MRP2-mediated disposition of CP-I. It was integrated into a DDI network comprising the precipitants rifampicin, probenecid, and cyclosporine A, and the object drugs atorvastatin, pitavastatin, and rosuvastatin. A key methodological feature was the estimation of Results: The CP-I model successfully captured baseline plasma concentration-time profiles with a Geometric Mean Fold Error (GMFE) of 1.15. In the DDI network analysis, using CP-I-derived Conclusion: This study presents a qualified, freely available PBPK framework for CP-I. It demonstrates that calibrating participant models using early clinical biomarker data enables reliable prospective prediction of OATP1B-mediated DDIs. This workflow supports model-informed drug development (MIDD) strategies, potentially reducing the need for dedicated clinical DDI studies.
