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

In 2004, a randomized, controlled phase III clinical trial showed that the addition of bevacizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A, to conventional chemotherapy prolonged the survival of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. A number of clinical trials are presently underway to test the utility of several angiogenic inhibitors against a variety of malignancies. The original concept of antiangiogenic therapy was the inhibition of outgrowth of new blood vessels; however, it soon became evident that bevacizumab could affect the vasculature through various mechanisms. Recent studies have shown that antiangiogenic agents can normalize the tumor vasculature and prevent the recruitment of endothelial progenitor cells from the bone marrow. Some preclinical studies have also shown that antiangiogenic agents prevent metastasis by modulating the premetastatic niche. Understanding these detailed mechanisms provides the rationale for combination therapy using antiangiogenic agents and cytotoxic chemotherapy, and will lead to more effective treatment strategies. In this review, we summarize the present understanding of the mechanisms of action of antiangiogenic agents and discuss the future prospects of antiangiogenic therapies.
