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

of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of divozilimab (DIV), anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, in patients with systemic sclerosis (SS). MATERIALS AND

methodsPatients with SS according to ACR/EULAR (American College of Rheumatology/European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology) 2013 criteria with modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS) ≥10 and ≤20 and forced vital capacity (FVC) ≥40% from the due took part in the study. Infusions of DIV 250 mg were administered on weeks 0 and 2, and DIV 500 mg on week 24 with the subsequent use in open mode, starting from week 48. This publication presents data obtained for 48 weeks of trial (before the DIV infusion at week 48). Primary endpoint was the change in the mRSS from baseline to week 48. The dynamic of FVC was estimated as the secondary endpoint. The safety evaluation included the frequency and profile of adverse events and adverse reactions (ARs). Immunogenicity was assessed by detection of binding and neutralizing anti-drug antibodies on weeks 2, 24, and 48.

results: The patients (151) were randomized into two groups: DIV (n = 76) and placebo (n = 75). The most were female; the median duration of the disease was about 3-4 years. The initial value of the mRSS was 14 and 13 points in DIV and Placebo groups, respectively. The change of mRSS from baseline to week 48 was -5.8 ± 1.1 points in DIV group and -2.7 ± 1.0 points in placebo group (adjusted mean difference (AMD) with 95% confidence interval -3.1 (-4.5; -1.7); p < 0.0001). The lung function was stable in patients treated with DIV. A comparable safety profile of DIV and placebo was demonstrated. The most frequent ARs were infusion reactions and a decrease in the number of lymphocytes. There were no severe and serious ARs in DIV group. All infusion reactions were mild and moderate. 5.3% (4/76) patients in DIV group had binding antibodies without neutralizing activity.

conclusions: Divozilimab has demonstrated a significant decrease in severity of skin fibrosis, a positive effect on the respiratory function, and a favorable safety profile, which allows it to be considered as a promising therapeutic option for SS.
