Clinical benefit of post-trastuzumab deruxtecan treatment in patients with HER 2-positive unresectable or metastatic breast cancer: A single-institution retrospective observational study.

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
purposeTrastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) can improve the prognosis of patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, data on treatment recommendations after T-DXd are lacking. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the treatment options after T-DXd and their effectiveness.
methodsPatients with HER2-positive MBC were included in this study. Data from clinical records were retrospectively analyzed. The primary outcome was time to treatment failure (TTF). Secondary endpoints were TTF of each treatment and first-line treatment after interstitial lung disease (ILD) and overall survival (OS).
resultsA total of 29 patients were included. Among them, 18 (62%) were hormone receptor-positive. All patients had a median TTF (mTTF) of 3.5 months (95% confidence interval (CI) 2.1-10.03). The mTTF of each treatment, including HER2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (HER2 TKI), other anti-HER2 treatments, and other treatments, was 2.6, 8.8, and 3.8 months, respectively. No significant differences were observed between treatments, but regimens that include trastuzumab showed a longer TTF than TKI. However, the mTTF among patients who developed T-DXd-related ILD was 2.33 months (95% CI 0.7-not reached), which was shorter than that among those who did not develop ILD (3.83 months, 95% CI 2.1-10.03, hazard ratio: 2.046, 95% CI 0.760-5.507, p = 0.258). The median OS was 14.9 months (95% CI 11.07-29.17).
conclusionTreatments after T-DXd showed a shorter mTTF. Regimens that include trastuzumab may be more effective post-T-DXd treatment than HER2 TKI. Further data are needed to establish the best sequential treatment after T-DXd.
