Cabozantinib in metastatic renal cell carcinoma: latest findings and clinical potential.
Review in Therapeutic advances in medical oncology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Since the advent of immunotherapy revolutionized the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), the attention of oncologists has been unavoidably shifted from tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) to immune checkpoint blockade, with the associated risk of listing cabozantinib as just one of many available TKIs. On the contrary, we think that cabozantinib represents a very good option for mRCC treatment, with outstanding outcomes in terms of response rate, progression-free survival, overall survival and quick time to treatment response. Its safety profile is acceptable and its discontinuation rate, due to toxicity, is similar to those of other TKIs. It is still not clear if the effectiveness of this drug is justified by its wide spectrum of multikinase activity, extended to the MET and AXL kinases, or by the simple maintenance of a 'vascular endothelial growth factor receptor pressure' after another previous TKI. Early-phase studies are currently ongoing to investigate the potential activity and safety of cabozantinib in association with immunotherapy, albeit with the risk of an overly toxic combination. Thus, future opportunities to improve the clinical use of this drug will probably be represented by a smart treatment sequence.
