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

Cancer treatment has so far been restricted to cytotoxic and hormonal agents. These have been of limited value in their efficacy and their toxicity profile. A new era of targeted therapies is rapidly evolving. A key target being actively pursued is the receptor tyrosine kinase. Several compounds that inhibit this target are in preclinical and clinical development. These compounds broadly fall into two categories: monoclonal antibodies and small-molecule inhibitors. The common targets are epidermal growth factor receptor, Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase, vascular endothelial growth factor, fibroblast growth factor receptor, and platelet-derived growth factor. Two of these compounds, trastuzumab and imatinib mesylate, have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for use in specific indications. Other uses are being tested, such as imatinib for gastrointestinal stromal tumor. These compounds will alter cancer care as adjuncts to currently available treatment options.
