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.

Abstract

introductionEndocrine therapy and cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) are standard treatment options for hormone receptor positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, the efficacy of standard subsequent therapies after CDK4/6i-based treatment is unclear. This study aimed to examine physician practice patterns and treatment outcomes of subsequent therapies administered after progression on palbociclib therapy in clinical practice.

methodsThe study included 200 patients with HR+/HER2- MBC who underwent subsequent treatments after progressing on palbociclib-based regimens in five Chinese institutions between August 2017 and April 2020. The treatment pattern, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and objective response rate (ORR) were reported.

resultsA total of 200 patients were included, of whom 147 (73.5%) and 53 (26.5%) received subsequent chemotherapy and endocrine therapy, respectively. The frequently used monochemotherapy regimens were taxane (

conclusionsPhysicians prefer chemotherapy over endocrine therapy for the treatment of patients with HR+/HER2- MBC who develop progression on palbociclib. Sensitivity to previous palbociclib treatment might be one of the indicators for predicting response to subsequent treatment.ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04517318.
