Apatinib combined with PD-1 antibody for third-line or later treatment of advanced gastric cancer.
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 4 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
Background: Both apatinib and programmed death 1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) monotherapy have been licensed in China for the third-line treatment of advanced gastric cancer (AGC). However, whether the combination could improve the prognosis of patients with AGC after second-line treatment has not been evaluated. Methods: We retrospectively screened 892 patients with AGC who received third-line or later treatment from June 2016 to July 2021 at the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University and second People's Hospital of Pingdingshan. 166 patients who received apatinib plus PD-1 mAb, apatinib, or PD-1 mAb were included. Based on medical records and follow-up data, we analyzed the efficacy and safety of these three treatment options. Results: Patients received apatinib plus PD-1 mAb (n=49), apatinib monotherapy (n=63), or PD-1 mAb monotherapy (n=54). Apatinib plus PD-1 mAb showed significantly longer progression-free survival (PFS) and overall surivival (OS) compared with the apatinib monotherapy (PFS: 5.5 months versus 3.0 months; Conclusion: Compared with the monotherapy of either apatinib or PD-1 mAb, apatinib plus PD-1 mAb treatment yielded longer PFS and OS, and achieved significant higher ORR and DCR.
