Review in Cancer management and research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Urothelial carcinoma is a common malignancy that affects the urinary system, with bladder cancer being the most prevalent form. Although the management of early-stage disease has seen significant improvements, the treatment of locally advanced and metastatic urothelial carcinoma remains challenging. Over the past decade, there has been an explosion in the number of therapies available for the treatment of advanced disease, with immune checkpoint inhibitors and antibody-drug conjugates leading the way. Enfortumab vedotin is an antibody-drug conjugate that targets Nectin-4, a protein that is overexpressed in urothelial carcinoma cells. In clinical trials, it has shown promising outcomes for the treatment of advanced urothelial carcinoma that has progressed after chemotherapy or immunotherapy. The US Food and Drug Administration has granted expedited approval for enfortumab vedotin in the treatment of advanced urothelial carcinoma. This review provides an overview of the current and emerging treatments for urothelial carcinoma, with a particular focus on enfortumab vedotin. We discuss the mechanisms of action, clinical efficacy, safety, and ongoing research of enfortumab vedotin, along with the current landscape of other approved therapies and promising agents in development. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date summary of the available treatment options for urothelial carcinoma, including their limitations and future prospects.
