Nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel and ramucirumab versus paclitaxel and ramucirumab as second-line chemotherapy for unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer: a multicenter, propensity score-matched analysis (CROSS SELL study).

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
backgroundPaclitaxel plus ramucirumab (PTX + RAM) is the standard second-line chemotherapy for unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer (AGC). Nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX) is an improved, more convenient form of PTX and is non-inferior to PTX. Although some retrospective and single-arm phase II studies regarding nab-PTX + RAM have been reported, comparative studies are lacking. Here, we compared the efficacy and toxicity of nab-PTX + RAM and PTX + RAM using propensity score matching.
methodsClinical data of 265 patients treated for AGC with nab-PTX + RAM or PTX + RAM were retrospectively collected. Nab-PTX was administered at dosages of 100 mg/m
resultsIn total, 190 (72%) patients were matched. The median PFS was 5.3 [95% confidence interval (CI) 4.4-6.3] and 4.7 (95% CI 3.2-5.3) months in the nab-PTX + RAM and PTX + RAM groups, respectively [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.76, 95% CI 0.56-1.03, p = 0.07]. The median OS was 11.5 (95% CI 9.2-15.0) and 9.9 (95% CI 8.0-12.7) months, respectively (HR = 0.78, 95% CI 0.56-1.07, p = 0.12). Grade 3 and 4 neutropenia was observed more frequently in the nab-PTX + RAM group (72% vs. 56%, p = 0.03). No treatment-related deaths occurred.
conclusionsNab-PTX + RAM exhibited more favorable trends in terms of PFS and OS but was more myelosuppressive than PTX + RAM. As neutropenia is commonly manageable toxicity, nab-PTX + RAM presents a treatment alternative for AGC. Further studies including randomized, controlled studies are warranted.
