[Immunotherapy for HNSCC : Quo vadis?].
Review in HNO, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundImmunotherapy remains a hot topic with an endless stream of new upcoming clinical trials. The results of studies to date are promising for second-line palliative treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The next step is testing these strategies in randomized trials for first-line and curative treatment in an adjuvant, neoadjuvant, and primarily nonsurgical setting. So far, established biomarkers have not proven reliable enough to predict response rates precisely.
objectivesOn occasion of the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), we aimed to invesitage the future of immunotherapies.
methodsWe collected the most promising upcoming studies alongside current research in the field of biomarkers with a view to interesting new immunotherapeutic strategies.
resultsThe search for appropriate biomarkers in particular seems to be a central research objective in the short term. There is a broad range of new agents that will be tested in clinical trials as well as the combination of immunotherapy with chemo- and chemoradiotherapy or other immune-modulating drugs.
conclusionThe real challenge will be to find the most fitting therapy for each patient out of a large panel of available regimens. Therefore, it is most important to find a set of reliable biomarkers that together could predict treatment response.
