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: The LENAddOn study aimed to characterize people with HIV (PWH) initiating injectable lenacapavir (LEN) post-early access program in France, assess LEN continuation rates at W26 and W52, and describe reasons for LEN discontinuation. Methods: Observational, retrospective study across 19 centers, including people with HIV-1 who initiated LEN between 20 June 2023 and 30 June 2024. Sociodemographic, clinical, and laboratory data were extracted from medical records. The primary outcome was the proportion of PWH receiving a second and third set of LEN injections at W26 and W52. Results: Seventy-seven PWH were included (median age, 57 years [IQR, 44-63]; duration of antiretroviral therapy (ART), 25 years [17-29]), with a history of frequent adherence issues and vulnerability factors. At LEN initiation, 22 (28.6%) had a plasma HIV-1 viral load (pVL) ≥200 copies/mL, and 43 (55.8%) had a pVL <50 copies/mL; 42 (54.6%) had viral resistance to ≥2 drugs in ≥3 classes. Twenty-one participants (27.3%) received injectable ART associating LEN plus cabotegravir ± rilpivirine. Lenacapavir continuation rate was 94.8% (95% CI, 87.2-98.6) at W26 and 81.8% (71.4-89.7) at W52, with 4 LEN discontinuations between D0 and W26 and 10 between W26 and W52. Main reasons for LEN discontinuation were death unrelated to LEN/lost-to-follow-up (n = 5), persistence of viral replication (n = 3), and injection site reactions (n = 2). Last measured pVL during the study period was <200 cp/mL in 72/77 participants (93.5%) and <50 cp/mL in 61/77 (79.2%). Conclusions: Lenacapavir use allowed simplification of antiretroviral regimens, with the maintenance or achievement of virological suppression. Continuation of LEN at W26 and W52 remained high among a population with extensive treatment history.
