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

Introduction: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the most frequent cause of drug-related mortality from EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Yet, for patients with symptomatic osimertinib-induced ILD, the risk of recurrent ILD associated with EGFR TKI rechallenge, either with osimertinib or another TKI, such as erlotinib, is unclear. Methods: Retrospective study of 913 patients who received osimertinib treatment for Results: Of 913 patients, 35 (3.8%) had symptomatic osimertinib-induced ILD, of which 12 (34%), 15 (43%), and eight (23%) had grade 2, 3 to 4, and 5 ILD, respectively. On ILD recovery, 17 patients had EGFR TKI rechallenge with eight received osimertinib and nine received erlotinib. The risk of recurrent ILD was higher with osimertinib rechallenge than erlotinib ( Conclusions: The risk of recurrent ILD was considerably higher with osimertinib rechallenge than erlotinib. Osimertinib rechallenge should be avoided, whereas erlotinib may be considered in patients with symptomatic osimertinib-induced ILD.
