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

purposeTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is related with a poor prognosis as patients do hardly benefit from approved therapies. CD138 (Syndecan-1) is upregulated on human breast cancers. Indatuximab ravtansine (BT062) is an antibody-drug-conjugate that specifically targets CD138-expressing cells and has previously shown clinical activity in multiple myeloma. Here we show indatuximab ravtansine as a potential mono- and combination therapy for TNBC.

methodsThe effects of indatuximab ravtansine were assessed in vitro in SK-BR-3 and T47D breast cancer cell lines. The in vivo effects of indatuximab ravtansine alone and in combination with docetaxel or paclitaxel were assessed in MAXF401, MAXF1384 and MAXF1322 xenograft TNBC models.

resultsCD138

conclusionsThese data demonstrate potential use of indatuximab ravtansine in combination with docetaxel or paclitaxel for CD138-positive TNBC.
