Access to innovation through clinical trials and the national early access program for patients with lung cancer in France: focus on atezolizumab and durvalumab.

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
purposeTumor genomic profiling and PD-L1 testing mean lung cancer management can be tackled through a personalized approach. Targeted therapies and immunotherapy are necessary to improve survival and preserve the patients' quality of life. Early access to innovation before marketing authorization (MA) is possible in France through clinical trials and an early-access program called a Temporary Authorization for Use (ATU), which is a unique regulatory system in Europe. This study aims to assess the impact of early access to innovation through clinical trials and ATUs in thoracic oncology.
methodsData from clinical trials between 2018 and 2021 and ATUs between 2005 and 2019 were collected internally and assessed for drugs in thoracic oncology, with specific focus on 2 ATUs, respectively, atezolizumab and durvalumab.
resultsFrom 2018 to 2021, the National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products authorized 145 clinical trials in lung cancer. Between 2005 and 2019, 19 drugs obtained an EU MA or an MA extension for a therapeutic indication in lung cancer. During this period, 11 of these drugs were granted an ATU, corresponding to 6851 patients treated. Of this total number of patients, data were collected for 33.1% and 71.2%, who received durvalumab and atezolizumab, respectively. Real-life efficacy data were consistent with the clinical trial data.
conclusionOver the past 15 years, clinical trials and the French early access program have allowed considerable early access to therapeutic innovation in real life for patients, especially in thoracic oncology.
