Prognostic Significance of the Severity of Immune-Related Adverse Events in Advanced Cancer Patients Treated with PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitors: A Real-World Data Analysis.
Article in Targeted oncology, 2023. 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
backgroundThere is limited evidence regarding immune-related adverse events (irAEs) in Asian cancer patients treated with antibodies directed against programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) or programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1).
objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the clinical patterns and prognostic significance of grade 1-2 and grade ≥ 3 irAEs by PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in cancer patients using real-world clinical data. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe conducted a retrospective study of cancer patients who received pembrolizumab, nivolumab, or atezolizumab at a tertiary hospital in South Korea. Incidence, time to onset, and grade 1-2 and grade ≥ 3 irAE risk factors were analyzed from medical records. The association of irAE severity with progression-free survival (PFS) and prognostic factors for PFS were evaluated.
resultsAmong a total of 431 patients, irAEs occurred in 45.2%, and 9.5% were grade ≥ 3 irAEs. There were no significant differences in the median time to onset based on severity. Risk factors for the development of grade ≥ 3 irAEs were the presence of autoimmune disorders or diabetes mellitus. The median PFS was significantly different at 13.20, 9.00 and 4.17 months for the grade 1-2, grade ≥ 3, and no irAE groups, respectively. An increase in administration cycles was associated with a reduced risk of progression in patients with grade 1-2 and grade ≥ 3 irAEs.
conclusionsThe development of grade ≥ 3 irAEs was affected by comorbidities and associated with improved PFS compared with those without irAEs. Our findings identified the real-world epidemiology, risk factors, and prognostic significance of irAEs, which may guide treatment decisions of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.
