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

Nanosomal docetaxel lipid suspension (NDLS) [DoceAqualip] is a novel formulation of docetaxel approved in India for the treatment of breast cancer, hormone-refractory prostate cancer, locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, non-small cell lung cancer and advanced gastric adenocarcinoma. The lipid-based delivery system of NDLS eliminates the need for polysorbate 80 and ethanol, which are contained in the conventional docetaxel formulation and are associated with hypersensitivity reactions and infusion-related toxicities. Because of the diminished potential for NDLS to cause hypersensitivity reactions compared with conventional docetaxel, corticosteroid premedication is not required with NDLS. In a randomized trial in patients with pretreated, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, the overall response rate was numerically higher with NDLS than with conventional docetaxel, and post-dose adverse events in the NDLS group were considered manageable and most resolved without sequelae, despite the lack of corticosteroid premedication.
