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

Third-line treatment with trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) is recommended for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) or gastric/gastroesophageal cancer (GC) who have progressed beyond first- and second-line therapy. We describe a patient with long-term survival following treatment with FTD/TPI. The patient, a 70-year-old woman diagnosed with right-sided mCRC (T3/N1) with metastases to the aortocaval and precaval lymph nodes, received first-line panitumumab and capecitabine for 6 months, followed by second-line bevacizumab and oxaliplatin. She had disease progression following 9 months of second-line therapy and began third-line treatment with FTD/TPI (50 mg bid). Three months after treatment initiation, lymph node involvement was reduced, and following 12 months of FTD/TPI treatment, her disease had stabilized, and she reported no treatment-related adverse events. She remained on the same dose of FTD/TPI for more than 27 months after initiating treatment, with maintenance of stable disease. This patient with mCRC demonstrated a survival benefit with FTD/TPI beyond those reported in published clinical trial data and real-world studies.
