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

Vinflunine is a novel vinca alkaloid developed through the selective modification of vinorelbine using super-acidic chemistry. In preclinical testing, vinflunine demonstrated significantly enhanced anti-tumour activity in human tumour xenograft models when compared to its parent compound. A phase I study was conducted to evaluate the safety and toxicity of vinflunine administered as a 10 minute intravenous infusion on days 1 and 8 every three weeks. Sixteen patients with advanced solid tumours were treated. Two of four patients experienced dose limiting toxicities (DLT) at 190 mg/m2 and this was established as the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). At the MTD, the DLT of vinflunine consisted of constipation and neutropenia. Fatigue was notable but not dose limiting. No objective responses were observed. A dose of 170 mg/m2 given on a day 1 and 8 schedule every three weeks would be suitable for future studies.
