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

The development of immune checkpoint inhibitors has revolutionized the landscape of treatment of advanced melanoma in recent years. Based on the efficacy results of the phase III CheckMate 067 trial, nivolumab in combination with ipilimumab is one of the first-line standard options for advanced melanoma along with pembrolizumab, nivolumab, and, recently, nivolumab plus relatlimab. Counterbalancing its efficacy, nivolumab plus ipilimumab is associated with severe immune-related toxicity. This article will review the efficacy and safety of the nivolumab plus ipilimumab combination in advanced melanoma across phase I, II, and III clinical trials that evaluated this approach. We also explore the benefit of the combination schedule across different subgroups of patients and possible predictive biomarkers for efficacy outcomes in order to elucidate which patients could be the best candidates for combination or single-agent therapy.
