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

backgroundLorvotuzumab mertansine (IMGN901) is an antibody-drug conjugate linking an antimitotic agent (DM1) to an anti-CD56 antibody (lorvotuzumab). Preclinical efficacy has been noted in Wilms tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, and neuroblastoma. Synovial sarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), and pleuropulmonary blastoma also express CD56. A phase 2 trial of lorvotuzumab mertansine was conducted to assess its efficacy, recommended phase 2 dose, and toxicities.

methodsEligible patients had relapsed after or progressed on standard therapy for their tumor type. Lorvotuzumab mertansine (110 mg/m

resultsSixty-two patients enrolled. The median age was 14.3 years (range, 2.8-29.9 years); 35 were male. Diagnoses included Wilms tumor (n = 17), rhabdomyosarcoma (n = 17), neuroblastoma (n = 12), synovial sarcoma (n = 10), MPNST (n = 5), and pleuropulmonary blastoma (n = 1). Five patients experienced 9 dose-limiting toxicities: hyperglycemia (n = 1), colonic fistula (n = 1) with perforation (n = 1), nausea (n = 1) with vomiting (n = 1), increased alanine aminotransferase in cycle 1 (n = 2), and increased alanine aminotransferase in cycle 2 (n = 1) with increased aspartate aminotransferase (n = 1). Non-dose-limiting toxicities (grade 3 or higher) attributed to lorvotuzumab mertansine were rare. The median values of the maximum concentration, half-life, and area under the curve from zero to infinity for DM1 were 0.87 µg/mL, 35 hours, and 27.9 µg/mL h, respectively. Peripheral blood CD56+ leukocytes decreased by 71.9% on day 8. One patient with rhabdomyosarcoma had a partial response, and 1 patient with synovial sarcoma achieved a delayed complete response.
