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

Everolimus displays antiproliferative effects on cancer cells, yields antiangiogenic activity in established tumours, and shows synergistic activity with paclitaxel in preclinical models. This study assessed the safety and the pharmacokinetic interactions of everolimus and paclitaxel in patients with advanced malignancies. Everolimus was dose escalated from 15 to 30 mg and administered with paclitaxel 80 mg m(-2) on days 1, 8, and 15 every 28 days. Safety was assessed weekly, and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was evaluated in cycle 1. A total of 16 patients (median age 54.5 years, range 33-69) were entered; 11 had prior taxane therapy for breast (n=5), ovarian (n=3), and vaginal cancer (n=1) or angiosarcoma (n=2). Grade 3 neutropenia in six patients met the criteria for DLT in two patients receiving everolimus 30 mg weekly. Other drug-related grade 3 toxicities were leucopenia, anaemia, thrombocytopenia, stomatitis, asthenia, and increased liver enzymes. Tumour stabilisation reported in 11 patients exceeded 6 months in 2 patients with breast cancer. Everolimus showed an acceptable safety profile at the dose of 30 mg when combined with weekly paclitaxel 80 mg m(-2), warranting further clinical investigation.
