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

Background: Immunotherapy plus chemotherapy have been confirmed to be effective in treating advanced or metastatic gastric cancer (GC). Anti- programmed death-1 (PD-1) plus antiangiogenic agents have shown promising activity and tolerant toxicity in subsequent therapy of late-stage gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1 plus anti-angiogenic agents and chemotherapy in advanced or metastatic GC and to explore the potential biomarkers associated with response. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed thirty human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative advanced or metastatic GC patients who received PD-1 plus anti-angiogenic drugs and chemotherapy. Conversion therapy was defined when the patients could undergo resection post combination therapy. Clinical data were retrieved from medical records. We conducted exploratory biomarker analysis of baseline gene mutations and tumor mutation burden (TMB) using the next-generation sequencing (NGS), PD-L1 by immunohistochemistry (IHC), and the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) by multiplex immunofluorescence. Results: A total of 30 patients received anti-PD-1plus anti-angiogenic drugs and chemotherapy during the study period. The objective response rate (ORR) was 76.7% [95% confidence interval (CI): 57.7-90.1%] and disease control rate (DCR) was 86.7% (95% CI: 69.3-96.2%). A total of 11 patients (36.7%) achieved conversion therapy and underwent surgery. The R0 resection rate was 90.9%. Of the 11 patients, 9 (81.8%) responded to the treatment, 1 with a pathological complete response (pCR) and 8 with a major pathological response (MPR). No adverse events of grade 3 or higher occurred. Neither PD-L1 expression nor TMB was significantly correlated with treatment response. Analysis of TIME revealed that the fraction of CD8 Conclusions: Immunotherapy plus anti-angiogenic drugs and chemotherapy is a promising treatment strategy for advanced or metastatic GC patients.
