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

purposeSorafenib is an oral multikinase inhibitor with regulatory approval in advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and refractory differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors like sorafenib may cause proteinuria. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness and safety of sorafenib in RCC, HCC and DTC patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

methodsThis retrospective study analyzed integrated data from prospective post-marketing surveillance studies for advanced RCC, HCC and DTC. Background factors considered to affect patients' prognosis were balanced by propensity score matching using eGFR cut-off values of 60 mL/min/1.73 m

resultsIn the combined matched population (N = 2430), sorafenib was equally effective in patients with lower and higher eGFR values. Sorafenib had an overall response rate (ORR: complete + partial responses) of 18.9% and a disease control rate (DCR: complete + partial responses + stable disease) of 67.0%. There were no significant differences between lower and higher eGFR groups for response rates. Renal function was maintained throughout the 12-month study period in the combined population and in each indication. Adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs were reported in 91.6% and 58.2% of propensity score-matched patients, and with no significant differences between lower and higher eGFR groups.

conclusionThe effectiveness and safety of sorafenib were similar in patients with eGFR < 60 and ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m
