Efficacy and Safety of Amrubicin in Small Cell Carcinoma Previously Treated with Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Chemotherapy.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Adding an immune checkpoint inhibitor to chemotherapy to treat extensive-stage small cell lung cancer is effective. However, there are no reports of an effective second-line treatment in patients previously treated with chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors as a first-line treatment. Here, we assessed the efficacy and safety of amrubicin as a second-line treatment for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer after chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor combination therapy. The study enrolled 150 patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The efficacy and the incidence of adverse events were compared between patients previously treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors and patients without previous immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment. One hundred and twenty-three patients were eligible. There was no difference in objective response rate, time-to-treatment failure, progression-free survival, and overall survival between both groups. The incidence of adverse events was similar in both treatment groups. Pretreatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors was not associated with an increase in amrubicin-related adverse events. This study shows that the efficacy of amrubicin in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer remains unchanged irrespective of previous treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Amrubicin-related adverse events did not increase in patients previously treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
