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

objectiveTo assess feasibility and preliminary efficacy of adding cetuximab to standard chemoradiotherapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. PATIENTS AND

methodsTUXEDO was a prospective, single-arm, open-label, phase I/II trial conducted in six UK hospitals. Cetuximab was administered with an initial loading dose of 400mg/m

resultsBetween Sept-2012 and Oct-2016, 33 patients were recruited; 7 in phase I, 26 in phase II. Three patients in phase II were subsequently deemed ineligible and received no trial therapy. Eight patients discontinued cetuximab due to adverse effects. Median age of patients was 70.1 years (range 60.6-75.1), 20 were PS 0, 27 male and 26 had already received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. In phase I, all patients completed planned radiotherapy, with no delays or dose reductions. Of the 30 evaluable patients in phase II, 25 had confirmed local control 3-months post treatment (77%, 95% CI: 58-90). During the trial there were 18 serious adverse events. The study was halted due to slow accrual.

conclusionPhase I data demonstrate it is feasible and safe to add cetuximab to chemoradiotherapy. Exploratory analysis of phase II data provides evidence to consider further clinical evaluation of cetuximab in this setting.
