Real-World Analysis of Nivolumab and Atezolizumab Efficacy in Previously Treated Patients with Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
Article in Pharmaceuticals (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Nivolumab (anti-PD-1 antibody) and atezolizumab (anti-PD-L1 antibody) have shown superior survival outcomes and improved adverse effects compared to standard chemotherapy in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. However, the efficacy of both treatments has not been directly compared in clinical trials. This retrospective, single-centre study was performed from June 2015 to December 2020 and included a cohort of 158 previously treated patients with stage IV or recurrent NSCLC who received PD-1 (nivolumab) (n = 89) or PD-L1 (atezolizumab) (n = 69) inhibitors at the Virgen del Rocío Hospital in Seville. The objective response rate (ORR) was 22.5% in the nivolumab group and 14.5% in the atezolizumab group (p = 0.140). Multivariate analysis did not show significant differences between the two groups for PFS and OS (PFS hazard ratio (HR): 0.80, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.55−1.17, p = 0.260; OS HR: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.52−1.21, p = 0.281). Adverse events of all grades occurred in 68 patients in the nivolumab group (76.4%) and in 34 patients in the atezolizumab group (49.3%) (p < 0.001). Atezolizumab and nivolumab did not show statistically significant differences in survival outcomes in patients with NSCLC, even when stratified by histological subtype (squamous versus nonsquamous). However, the safety analysis suggested a more favourable toxicity profile for atezolizumab.
