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

backgroundWe evaluated week-on/week-off axitinib dosing plus chemotherapy in patients with gastrointestinal tumours, including tumour thymidine uptake by fluorine-18 3'-deoxy-3'-fluorothymidine positron emission tomography ((18)FLT-PET).

methodsDuring a lead-in period, patients received twice daily (b.i.d.) axitinib 7 mg (n=3) or 10 mg (n=18) for 7 days followed by a 7-day dosing interruption; serial (18)FLT-PET scans were performed before day 1 and on days 7, 10, and 14. Axitinib plus FOLFIRI or FOLFOX was then administered in 2-week cycles; axitinib was interrupted on day 10 of each cycle for 7 days.

resultsThe maximum tolerated dose of axitinib was 10 mg b.i.d., in a week-on/week-off schedule, combined with FOLFIRI or FOLFOX. Common all-causality grade 3 adverse events were neutropenia (38%), hypertension (33%), and fatigue (29%). Of 21 patients, 2 (10%) had a partial response and 12 (57%) had stable disease. Following 7 days of continuous axitinib dosing, tumour (18)FLT uptake decreased -49% from baseline and recovered to -28% and -17% from baseline, respectively, after 3 and 7 days of axitinib interruption.

conclusionAxitinib administered in a week-on/week-off schedule combined with FOLFIRI or FOLFOX is supported by (18)FLT-PET data and was well tolerated in patients with gastrointestinal tumours.
