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

backgroundThere is no well-established late-line treatment for advanced nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Therefore, we retrospectively determined the efficacy and safety of platinum rechallenge with paclitaxel-carboplatin and bevacizumab in patients with nonsquamous NSCLC as a late-line therapy in a clinical setting.

methodsThirty patients with nonsquamous NSCLC who received paclitaxel-carboplatin with bevacizumab therapy as a late-line treatment at Sendai Kousei Hospital (Miyagi, Japan) between December 2011 and December 2021 were enrolled into the study. The efficacy and safety of this treatment were evaluated. The patients were further categorized into responders and nonresponders, and predictive factors of treatment response were estimated.

resultsThe median progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.3 (range, 4.9-6.8) months, and the median overall survival (OS) was 11.8 (range, 7.2-17.2) months. There were no significant differences in PFS and OS between patients with and those without epidermal growth factor receptor mutations. In the univariate analyses of this study, responders were younger than nonresponders (p = 0.012). No fatal adverse events were reported.

conclusionsWith the increase in the number of treatment options in recent years, the sequence of treatments and overall therapeutic strategy are becoming increasingly important. Thus, platinum rechallenge with paclitaxel-carboplatin and bevacizumab, a late-line treatment for patients with nonsquamous NSCLC, may be an effective therapeutic option.
