Synergistic Effect of Lenvatinib and Chemotherapy in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Using Preclinical Models.
Article in Journal of hepatocellular carcinoma, 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
Purpose: The current study aimed to evaluate the synergistic efficacy of lenvatinib and FOLFOX (infusional fluorouracil (FU), folinic acid, and oxaliplatin) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using patient-derived xenograft (PDX) and PDX-derived organotypic spheroid (XDOTS) models in vivo and in vitro. Methods: PDX and matched XDOTS models originating from three patients with HCC were established. All models were divided into four groups and treated with drugs alone or in combination. Tumor growth in the PDX models was measured and recorded, and angiogenesis and phosphorylation of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR2), rearranged during transfection (RET), and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) were detected using immunohistochemistry and Western blot assays. The proliferative ability of XDOTS was evaluated through active staining and immunofluorescence staining, and the effect of the combined medication was evaluated using the Celltiter-Glo luminescent cell viability assay. Results: Three PDX models with genetic characteristics similar to those of the original tumors were successfully established. Combining lenvatinib with FOLFOX led to a higher tumor growth inhibition rate than individual therapies ( Conclusion: Lenvatinib combined with FOLFOX had a synergistic antitumor effect in HCC PDX and XDOTS models by inhibiting the phosphorylation of VEGFR, RET, and ERK.
