Treatment strategies for hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HR+/HER2+) metastatic breast cancer: A review.
Review 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 11 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
Hormone receptor-positive HER2-positive (HR+/HER2+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is a unique subtype of breast cancer. Most current guidelines recommend that combination regimens based on anti-HER2 therapy should be used as first-line treatment for HER2+ MBC, irrespective of HR status. Endocrine therapy can be applied as maintenance therapy for patients who are intolerant to chemotherapy or post-chemotherapy. Increasing evidence suggests that complex molecular crosstalk between HR and HER2 pathways may affect the sensitivity to both HER2-targeted and endocrine therapy in patients with HR+/HER2+ breast cancer. Recent research and clinical trials have revealed that a combination of endocrine therapy and anti-HER2 approaches without chemotherapy provides along-term disease control for some patients, but the challenge lies in how to accurately identify the subsets of patients who can benefit from such a de-chemotherapy treatment strategy. In this review, we aim to summarize the results of preclinical and clinical studies in HR+/HER2+ MBC and discuss the possibility of sparing chemotherapy in this subgroup of patients.
