Review in Nature reviews. Gastroenterology & hepatology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06490055 (Predicting the Efficacy of Paclitaxel Plus Ramucirumab in Advanced Gastric Cancer.), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

Gastric cancer and gastro-oesophageal junction cancer represent a global health-care challenge. Despite the efficacy of improved chemotherapy and surgical options, these patients still have a poor prognosis. In advanced disease, only trastuzumab and some immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as nivolumab and pembrolizumab in addition to chemotherapy, have demonstrated consistent and reliable efficacy in patients with HER2-positive and PDL1-positive tumours, respectively. In this Review, we discuss the intrinsic characteristics of gastric and gastro-oesophageal cancer from the molecular and clinical perspectives and provide a comprehensive review of previously reported and ongoing phase II and III clinical trials with targeted agents and immunotherapy in advanced and localized settings. Finally, we suggest alternative strategies to help overcome current challenges in precision medicine and to improve outcomes for these patients.
