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 AND

objectiveFirsocostat is an oral, liver-targeted inhibitor of acetyl-CoA carboxylase in clinical development for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis. This work evaluated the potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) of firsocostat as a victim and as a perpetrator, to inform concomitant medication use.

methodsIn this phase I study, healthy participants (n = 13-30 in each of four cohorts) received firsocostat alone or in combination with either victims or perpetrators of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and drug transporters to evaluate firsocostat as both a victim and perpetrator of DDIs, respectively.

resultsOverall, 80 participants completed the study. As a victim of DDI, firsocostat plasma exposure (area under the plasma concentration-time curve [AUC] from 0 to infinity [AUC

conclusionsFirsocostat can be administered with CYP3A and UGT inhibitors without dose adjustment. However, firsocostat should not be coadministered with strong OATP1B/3 inhibitors, such as rifampin and cyclosporine A. Firsocostat can be administered with CYP3A substrates or combined oral contraceptives without dose modification.
