The surge of HBsAb level in a HBsAg-negative ES-SCLC patient after anlotinib plus atezolizumab treatment: A case report.

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
Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a poorly differentiated neuroendocrine tumor with endocrine function. For decades, chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been the first-line treatment options. Because of its ability to normalize tumor vessels, anlotinib is recommended as a novel therapy as a third-line treatment. A combination of anti-angiogenic drugs and ICIs can effectively and safely benefit advanced cancer patients. However, immune-related side effects caused by ICIs are common. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation and hepatitis are common during immunotherapy in patients with chronic HBV infection. A 62-year-old man with ES-SCLC who had brain metastasis was described in this case. It is unusual for a HBsAg-negative patient to develop an increase in HBsAb after receiving atezolizumab immunotherapy. Although some researchers have reported the functional cure of HBV by PD-L1 antibody, this is the first case that showed a sustained increased in HBsAb level after anti-PD-L1 therapy. It is related with CD4+ and CD8+ T cells activation and HBV infection microenvironment. Importantly, this could provide a solution to insufficient protective antibody production after vaccination as well as a therapeutic opportunity for HBV patients with cancers.
