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.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Since the completion of the KHBO1401 study, which evaluated the efficacy of the combination of gemcitabine (GEM) and cisplatin (GC) compared with GC plus S‑1 (GCS), GCS has become a standard chemotherapy for patients with advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC). However, there are currently no data revealing second‑line therapy options after GCS. The present study aimed to evaluate the survival outcomes of patients receiving second‑line chemotherapy for advanced BTC, refractory or intolerant to GCS, using data from the KHBO1401 study. Patients who received a second‑line treatment after GCS chemotherapy between July 2014 and February 2016 were retrospectively studied. Overall survival (OS) was calculated from the day of GCS treatment failure or the first day of second‑line chemotherapy to the final follow‑up date or until death from any cause. Among 83 patients refractory or intolerant to GCS chemotherapy, 51 (61%) received second‑line chemotherapy, including GCS (n=8), GC (n=15), GEM (n=6), GEM plus S‑1 (GS) (n=4) and S‑1 (n=18). The 6‑ and 12‑month OS rates were 66.7 and 44.4%, respectively, following second‑line chemotherapy, and 6.3 and 3.1%, respectively, in the best supportive care group (P<0.0001). In addition, the 12‑ and 24‑month OS rates were 59.3 and 36.2%, respectively, in the multidrug chemotherapy group, and 26.9 and 9.0%, respectively, in the single‑agent chemotherapy group (P=0.0191). These results suggested that second‑line combination chemotherapy is a viable treatment option for patients with advanced BTC that is refractory or intolerant to first‑line GCS therapy.
