Immunotherapy May Improve Tumor Sensitivity to Palliative Chemotherapy in Platinum Resistant Ovarian Cancer.
Article in The oncologist, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Ovarian cancer is the second most common gynecologic cancer in the US and ranks among the top 10 causes of female cancer-related deaths. Platinum-resistant disease carries a particularly poor prognosis and leaves patients with limited remaining therapeutic options. Patients with platinum-resistant disease have significantly lower response rates to additional chemotherapy, with estimates as low as 10%-25%. We hypothesize that in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, treatment with immunotherapy followed by cytotoxic chemotherapy with antiangiogenic therapy results in prolonged survival without compromising quality of life. Our experience of 3 patients with recurrent, metastatic platinum-resistant ovarian cancer treated with immunotherapy followed by anti-angiogenic treatment plus chemotherapy resulted in progression-free survival durations significantly above previously published averages. Further studies evaluating the role of immunotherapy followed by chemotherapy in combination with drugs targeting angiogenesis are needed and may provide a long-sought after breakthrough for advancing survival in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.
