An original donor-dependent spheroid system for the prediction of idiosyncratic drug-induced liver injury risk.
Article in In vitro models, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
One major drawback of preclinical models to test drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is their inability to predict the interindividual difference of DILI effect in a population. Consequently, a high number of molecules that passed preclinical phases, fail clinical trials, and many FDA-approved drugs were removed from the market due to idiosyncratic DILI. We use a proprietary-depleted human serum-based cell educating technology to generate donor-dependent spheroids with distinct morphology and functionality. We demonstrate that educated spheroids could capture the large variations in susceptibility to drug-induced liver injury between donors. We show that the model could predict clinical apparent DILI risk with a high specificity and sensitivity. We provide evidence that the model could address non-genetic factor-associated DILI risk and severity such as age or sex. Our study supports the benefit of using donor-dependent educated spheroids for hepatotoxicity evaluation in preclinical phase or in an exploratory study clinical trial phase 2 to provide a robust safety profile to a drug.
