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

Introduction: Lorlatinib (LOR) or pemetrexed-based chemotherapy (PEM) is the standard treatment after failure of a second-generation ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor, such as alectinib, in patients with ALK-positive NSCLC. Nevertheless, there have been few data on the clinical outcomes of these treatments after alectinib failure. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients with ALK-rearranged NSCLC who received LOR (LOR group) or PEM (PEM group) as post-treatment after alectinib failure between December 2012 and August 2020. Results: Among 90 patients who experienced disease progression during alectinib treatment, 38 of them received either PEM ( Conclusions: Clinical outcomes of PEM and LOR after failure of alectinib were similar in patients with ALK-positive NSCLC.
