Clinical Study of Anlotinib as Third-Line or Above Therapy in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Gastric Cancer: A Multicenter Retrospective Study.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Background: The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib as third-line or above therapy for patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer. Methods: Patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer who have failed from second-line treatment and treated with anlotinib monotherapy or combined with chemotherapy or immunotherapy from June 2019 to January 2021 in 3 institutions across China were retrospectively analyzed. The primary end point was progression free survival (PFS). Secondary end points included overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and safety. Results: 43 patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer who have failed prior treatment received anlotinib monotherapy or combination therapy as third-line or above therapy. In the general population, 4 patients achieved PR, 21 patients had SD and 18 patients had PD. The overall ORR and DCR were 9.3% (4/43) and 58.1% (25/43), respectively. Median PFS and OS were 3.0 months (95% CI=2.5-3.5) and 6.0 months (95% CI=4.4-7.6), respectively. The incidence of Grade 3-4 adverse events(AEs) was 34.9%. Subgroup analysis suggested that the ORR of anlotinib combination therapy was superior than anlotinib monotherapy, but with similar PFS and OS. The clinical benefit of anlotinib was not associated with previously anti-angiogenesis therapy with apatinib. Conclusions: Anlotinib monotherapy or combination therapy provide a feasible third-line or above therapeutic strategy in patients with advanced or metastatic gastric cancer a median PFS of 3.0 months and median OS of 6.0 months was obtained with well tolerated toxicity.
