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

Although ovarian cancer is often a chemosensitive malignancy, patients who are resistant to platinum-based chemotherapy represent a therapeutic challenge. Currently, the only drugs that are US FDA approved to treat this subset of patients are paclitaxel, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) and topotecan. The response rates with these agents is in the 10-15% range and overall survival is around 12 months. Other drugs that have shown some activity in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer include the taxane analogues, oral etoposide, pemetrexed and bevacizumab. Unfortunately, randomized phase III trials of second-line chemotherapy in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer have not shown an advantage over existing therapy with respect to progression-free survival or overall survival. The only trial that has reported a significant progression-free survival advantage over standard therapy is a randomized phase II trial of PLD with or without EC145, a folate-linked vinca alkaloid. Final survival results of this trial are pending.
