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

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive breast cancer accounts for about 20% of all breast cancers and this subtype has been historically associated with worse prognosis. Margetuximab is a chimeric and Fc-engineered monoclonal antibody directed to HER2 that can enhance the activation of the innate and adaptive immune responses while maintaining trastuzumab's antiproliferative effects. Margetuximab in combination with chemotherapy was approved by the US FDA in December 2020 for patients with metastatic HER2+ breast cancer who have received two or more HER2-targeted regimens. This approval was based on the results of the SOPHIA trial that showed a modest improvement in progression-free survival with margetuximab and chemotherapy compared to trastuzumab and chemotherapy. Ongoing studies are assessing the role of margetuximab in other settings and diseases such as early stage breast cancer and gastrointestinal malignancies. Here we review the rationale for the development of margetuximab, previous and ongoing clinical trials and current role in clinical practice.
