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

backgroundThis phase II trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of S-1 combined with weekly irinotecan as a second- or third-line treatment for patients with advanced or recurrent squamous cell lung cancer.

methodsPatients with a body surface area <1.25, 1.25-1.50, and >1.50 m

resultsBetween September 2011 and December 2014, 30 patients were enrolled in this study. The overall response rate was 6.7% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.8%-22.1%), and the disease control rate was 73.3%. The median progression-free survival was 3.0 months (95% CI: 2.5-3.4 months), and the median overall survival was 10.5 months (95% CI: 5.6-13.7 months). Grade 3/4 treatment-related adverse events were reported in ≥10% of the patients, including leukopenia (21%), neutropenia (21%), anemia (17%), anorexia (10%), and hypokalemia (10%).

conclusionsAlthough the treatment-related adverse events were manageable, the combination of weekly irinotecan and S-1 did not have the expected effect.
