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

Onartuzumab is a monovalent, humanized, monoclonal antibody that showed significant survival benefits in combination with erlotinib in MET-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in pre-specified subgroup analyses of a randomized phase II study. We conducted a two-stage, open-label, multicenter, phase I study of onartuzumab in Japanese patients. Stage 1 investigated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and recommended dose of onartuzumab in patients with solid tumors, and Stage 2 determined the safety, tolerability, and PK of onartuzumab plus erlotinib in patients with MET-positive NSCLC. Nine patients received onartuzumab monotherapy (4, 15, or 30 mg/kg on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle) in Stage 1, and six patients received onartuzumab (15 mg/kg) plus erlotinib (150 mg/day) in Stage 2. There were no dose-limiting toxicities in either stage. Serious adverse events (AEs) occurred in one patient in Stage 1 (convulsion), and two patients in Stage 2 (once case each of diarrhea, vomiting, and pulmonary embolism), but there were no grade 4 AEs or AEs leading to death. Onartuzumab PKs were linear in the dose range of 4 to 30 mg/kg, and were not affected by co-administration with erlotinib. PK parameters of onartuzumab were similar to those reported in non-Japanese patients. A partial response was observed in a patient with MET immunohistochemistry 3+ NSCLC without MET gene amplification. Based on these results, the recommended dose of onartuzumab in Japanese patients with solid tumors is 15 mg/kg every 21 days. The combination of onartuzumab with erlotinib is feasible in Japanese patients with MET-positive lung cancer.
