Adjuvant Lenvatinib Plus PD-1 Antibody for Hepatocellular Carcinoma with High Recurrence Risks After Hepatectomy: A Retrospective Landmark Analysis.

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
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib plus programmed death-1 (PD-1) antibody as postoperative adjuvant therapy in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at high risks of recurrence. Patients and Methods: A series of 137 patients with HCC at high risks of recurrence who underwent hepatectomy at our hospital between October 2019 and January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Recurrence-free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS), and treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were assessed. Landmark analysis was used to compare short- and long-term RFS. Univariable and multivariable analyses were used to identify prognostic factors, and subgroup analyses were performed according to high risks of recurrence. Results: A total of 85 patients underwent hepatectomy alone and 52 patients received postoperative adjuvant therapy. Compared with the hepatectomy group (HG), RFS was significantly improved in the adjuvant therapy group (ATG) ( Conclusion: Postoperative adjuvant lenvatinib plus PD-1 antibody significantly improved RFS in patients with HCC at high risks of recurrence with acceptable safeties.
