Retrospective Analysis of Pyrotinib-Based Therapy for Metastatic Breast Cancer: Promising Efficacy in Combination with Trastuzumab.

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 a pyrotinib-based therapy for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in the real world. Methods: Clinical data of 218 patients with HER2-positive MBC who received a pyrotinib-based therapy from January 2020 to March 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Finally, 195 patients were included in the efficacy cohort. The median progression-free survival (PFS) in the total population is 12.4 months (95% CI, 9.8-15.0 months). More than half of the patients in the efficacy cohort received pyrotinib mono-targeted therapy (103 cases, 52.8%). Among the remaining patients, 74 (37.9%) patients chose a combined trastuzumab-targeted therapy and 17 (8.7%) chose to combine inetetamab. Median PFS in the pyrotinib group vs pyrotinib plus trastuzumab group was 10.5 months vs 20.1 months ( Conclusion: The combination of pyrotinib and trastuzumab demonstrated promising efficacy in the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, including those who had primary resistance to trastuzumab and brain metastases. Pyrotinib plus trastuzumab is expected to be a potent option in the first-line. Additionally, the concurrent administration of pyrotinib and inetetamab could be an alternative to consider in the second and higher-line treatment for metastatic breast cancer. The adverse reactions of pyrotinib were tolerable in general.
