A Retrospective Study of Trifluridine/Tipiracil with Fruquintinib in Patients with Chemorefractory Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07286695 (A Multicenter, Open-label, Randomized Controlled Study of Fruquintinib Combined With Trifluridine/Tipiracil Versus Bevacizumab Combined With Trifluridine/Tipiracil in the Treatment of Patients With Advanced Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Who Failed Standard Chemotherapy), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
introductionTrifluridine/tipiracil (TAS-102) and fruquintinib are novel antitumor agents for patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We conducted a retrospective study to explore the clinical efficacy and drug toxicities of combination therapy with TAS-102 and fruquintinib in real-life clinical practice.
methodsBetween March 2021 and February 2023, patients at two different centers with mCRC who failed two or more lines of prior therapy and received TAS-102 in combination with fruquintinib were recruited.
resultsIn total, 32 mCRC patients were included in the analysis. The objective response rate (ORR) and the disease control rate (DCR) were 9.4% and 75%. The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 6.3 (95% CI: 5.3-7.3) and 13.5 (95% CI: 9.5-17.5) months, respectively. Patients without liver metastasis or peritoneal metastasis obtained better median PFS (7.1 m vs. 5.6 m,
conclusionsOur results suggest that TAS-102 combined with fruquintinib has promising clinical efficacy and manageable safety for refractory mCRC patients in a real-world clinical setting. Further prospective trials are warranted to confirm our results.
