Quality-adjusted Time Without Symptoms or Toxicity (Q-TWiST) for Lenvatinib plus Everolimus Versus Everolimus Monotherapy in Patients with Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma.
Article in European urology open science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundThe lenvatinib (LEN) plus everolimus (EVE) combination demonstrated improved progression-free survival over everolimus alone in a phase 2 trial (Study-205).
objectiveTo compare quality-adjusted time without symptoms of disease progression or toxicity (Q-TWiST) between LEN + EVE and EVE alone among patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) following one prior antiangiogenic therapy. DESIGN SETTING AND
participantsThis was a post hoc analysis of Study-205. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Survival time was partitioned into three mutually exclusive health states: time with grade 3/4 toxicity (TOX); time before disease progression and without grade 3/4 toxicity (TWiST); and time after disease progression (REL). The mean time in each state was weighted by utility measures and summed to calculate Q-TWiST. Nonparametric bootstrapping generated 95% confidence intervals (CIs). In the base case, utility for TWiST, TOX, and REL was assigned as 1.0, 0.5, and 0.5, respectively. Sensitivity analyses applied alternative utility values for REL, TOX, and TWiST. A relative gain in Q-TWiST of ≥10% and ≥15% has been established as clinically important and clearly clinically important, respectively. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: Patients receiving LEN + EVE (
conclusionsLEN + EVE showed a significant and clearly clinically important improvement in quality-adjusted survival time versus EVE alone. PATIENT SUMMARY: Patients with advanced kidney cancer who had received other previous treatments experienced a clearly clinically important improvement in quality survival time when treated with lenvatinib plus everolimus compared to everolimus alone.
