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

backgroundNanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX), which avoids toxicities associated with a vehicle used in solvent-based PTX, has already shown safety and efficacy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

methodsA phase II study was performed to assess the safety and efficacy of nab-PTX monotherapy as second-line chemotherapy after cytotoxic anticancer drugs for previously treated advanced NSCLC. Thirty-two patients with advanced NSCLC who had previously undergone 1 regimen of cytotoxic anticancer drugs were enrolled. Nab-PTX was administered intravenously at a dose of 100 mg/m on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day cycle. The objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicity profile were evaluated.

resultsThe ORR was 28.1%, the DCR was 71.9%, median PFS was 3.9 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.7-5.1 months), and median OS was 10.9 months (95% CI 9.5-12.3 months). The mean relative dose intensity of nab-PTX was 77%. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia, and grade 3 febrile neutropenia were observed in 11 and 1 of 32 patients, respectively. As nonhematologic toxicities, grade 3 peripheral sensory neuropathy and pneumonitis were each observed in 2 of 32 patients.

conclusionNab-PTX is an active and well-tolerated regimen in patients with previously treated NSCLC.
