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

objectiveThis meta-analysis compared the safety and efficacy of camrelizumab monotherapy and combination therapy, aiming to provide a reference for the clinical combined use of camrelizumab in the treatment of cancers and also provide a reference for the development of subsequent indications of camrelizumab.

methodsMeta-analysis was used to analyze the four eligible literatures. Primary endpoints of effectiveness index were objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), control rate (CR). Primary endpoint of safety index was rating of severity of adverse drug reactions (grades 1-5).

resultsThe ORR, PFS, and CR values of combined treatment with camrelizumab was better than alone treatment, camrelizumab alone was better than chemotherapy (RR = 0.45; 95% CI, 0.30-0.67; P < 0.001; RR = 1.63; 95% CI, 1.25-2.13; P < 0.001; RR = 0.73; 95% CI, 0.52-1.02; P<0.001). When grade > 2, the incidence rate of combined treatment and chemotherapy are higher than monotherapy (RR = 0.66; 95% CI, 0.51-0.86; P<0.001). In any grade, the safety of camrelizumab combination therapy was better than that of monotherapy, the safety of chemotherapy was better than camrelizumab plus chemotherapy.

conclusionIn terms of effectiveness, the combination of camrelizumab is better than monotherapy, and monotherapy is better than chemotherapy. In terms of safety, when the grade > 2, single use is better than combination therapy and chemotherapy. In any grade of adverse event, the safety of combined use of camrelizumab is better than that of single use, and the safety of chemotherapy is better than the combined use of camrelizumab plus chemotherapy.
