Five years of stable disease with maintenance therapy using bevacizumab and tamoxifen in a patient with metastatic breast cancer.

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.
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
Bevacizumab and Tamoxifen are valid therapeutic options for metastatic breast cancer (mBC) patients. In this report, we describe a 47 year old woman with mBC successfully treated with a maintenance therapy with Bevacizumab+Tamoxifen. A maintenance approach using 2 different drugs with different targets and mechanism of action, such as anti-angiogenic and anti-hormonal treatment is particularly intriguing because they affect different pathways involved in mBC progression. Further studies including a large number of patients are needed, in order to select women who could benefit from this maintenance approach.
