The Nail in the Coffin?: Examining the KEYNOTE-789 Clinical Trial's Impact.
Article in Lung Cancer (Auckland, N.Z.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Targeted therapies, such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), have revolutionized the treatment landscape for EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the emergence of resistance to EGFR TKIs especially the third generation TKIs such as osimertinib remains a major clinical challenge. As a broader strategy for combating resistance, several clinical trials have explored the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs)+chemotherapy in EGFR-mutated NSCLC. Until now, the ORIENT-31 and IMpower150 trials suggested that ICIs+ chemotherapy may be more effective than chemotherapy alone after failure of EGFR-TKIs (although ORIENT-31 was negative for overall survival [OS] and IMpower150 was a subset analysis, so the study was not powered to detect a difference); however, the CheckMate-722 trial yielded disappointing results. Thus, the results of this global trial KEYNOTE-789 were highly anticipated.
