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

The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is commonly associated with poor prognosis and is overexpressed in approximately 15-20% of all breast cancers. The introduction of HER2-targeted therapies led to significant improvement in the prognosis of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer, for both early and advanced disease. These targeted therapies include the antibodies trastzumab and pertuzumab, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor lapatinib, and the antibody-drug conjugate trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1). T-DM1 combines the anti-tumor activity of trastuzumab with that of DM1, a highly potent derivative of the anti-microtubule agent maytansine, resulting in increased anti-tumor activity. Notably, this agent has been demonstrated to be safe and is associated with low toxicity rates. However, maytansinoid, the cytotoxic component of T-DM1, does have the potential to induce various adverse events, particularly radiation necrosis, when used in combination with stereotactic radiosurgery. In this review, we aimed to summarize the current literature regarding T-DM1 safety and toxicity, with special emphasis on the existing landmark studies.
