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

Lenvatinib has a high response rate in unresectable advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we investigated whether lenvatinib-incorporating poly(ε-caprolactone) sheets (lenvatinib sheets) as a drug delivery system (DDS) exerted antitumor effects in a murine HCC model. The lenvatinib sheets were designed for sustained release of approximately 1 mg lenvatinib for 14 days. For 14 days, 1 mg lenvatinib was orally administered to mice. Then, we compared the antitumor effects of lenvatinib sheets with those of oral lenvatinib. The tumor volume, body weight, and serum lenvatinib level were measured for 14 days. A peritoneal dissemination model was established to examine the survival prolongation effect of the lenvatinib sheets. Tumor growth was significantly inhibited in the lenvatinib sheet group compared with that in the no treatment and oral groups. The antitumor effect was significantly higher in the lenvatinib sheet group. Regardless of the insertion site, the serum lenvatinib levels were maintained and showed similar antitumor effects. The mitotic index was significantly inhibited in the lenvatinib sheet group compared with that in the control group. Furthermore, lenvatinib sheets improved the 30-day survival. Lenvatinib sheets showed sufficient antitumor effects and may serve as an effective novel DDS for advanced HCC.
