Comparison of the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and tolerability of tezosentan between caucasian and Japanese subjects.

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.
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
aimTo investigate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and tolerability of the dual endothelin receptor antagonist tezosentan in caucasian and Japanese subjects.
methodsTwelve subjects of each ethnic origin were treated in a double-blind, randomized design with sequential 3-h infusions of 2.5, 5.0, 12.5 and 25 mg h(-1), or placebo. Vital signs, ECG and adverse events were recorded and blood samples collected for determination of plasma concentrations of tezosentan and endothelin-1 (ET-1).
resultsTezosentan was well tolerated in both ethnic groups with no clinically significant differences in laboratory measurements, ECG parameters and vital signs. The plasma concentration-time profiles of tezosentan were described by a three-compartment model with half-lives of approximately 5 min, 41 min and 3.6 h. Mean clearance and volume of distribution were approximately 35 l h(-1) and 20 l, respectively. Differences in the means (95% confidence intervals) between ethnic groups in these two parameters were 6.0 l h(-1) (-1.3, 13.3) and 4.3 l (-1.3, 9.9), respectively. Baseline ET-1 concentrations were similar but increases in response to tezosentan were greater in caucasian than in Japanese subjects. An indirect response model described the relationship between tezosentan and ET-1 plasma concentrations. The mean concentrations inhibiting 50% of ET-1 clearance (IC(50)) in caucasian and Japanese subjects were 243 and 227 ng ml(-1), respectively, with a difference in the means of 28.6 ng ml(-1) (-52.7, 110).
conclusionsThe data in healthy subjects suggest that caucasian and Japanese patients can be treated with a similar dosing regimen of tezosentan.
