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

HER2, is a member of the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases, that plays a key role in the pathogenesis of breast cancer, and when overexpressed, can correlate with a particularly aggressive clinical phenotype. It is estimated in roughly 18 to 20% of breast cancer patients, there is amplification of the HER2 gene resulting in aberrant overexpression of p185HER2 protein. As such, HER2 represents an attractive therapeutic target. In this review, we explore the clinical evolution of trastuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody with high specificity and affinity for the HER2 extracellular domain, and additionally examine more recent efforts targeting the intracellular tyrosine kinase domain of HER2 using small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
