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: As one of the most important breakthroughs in cancer therapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors have greatly prolonged survival of patients with breast cancer. However, their application and efficacy are limited, especially for advanced HER2-negative breast cancer. It has been reported that epigenetic modulation of the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor chidamide, as well as immune microenvironment modulation of radiotherapy are potentially synergistic with immunotherapy. Thus, the combination of chidamide, radiotherapy and immunotherapy is expected to improve prognosis of patients with advanced HER2-negative breast cancer. Patients and Methods: This is a single-arm, open, prospective clinical trial investigating the efficacy and safety of the combination of HDAC inhibitor chidamide, anti-PD-1 antibody sintilimab, and the novel immuno-radiotherapy, which aims to enhance efficacy of immunotherapy, in subsequent lines of therapy of HER2-negative breast cancer. Our study will include 35 patients with advanced breast cancer that has failed endocrine therapy and first-line chemotherapy. Participants will receive 30 mg of chidamide twice a week, 200 mg of sintilimab once every 3 weeks, combined with immuno-radiotherapy. Radiotherapy will be centrally 8 Gy for at least one lesion, and at least 1 Gy for the other lesions. We will complete three fractions of radiotherapy in one cycle. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival, and secondary endpoints are objective response rate, disease control rate and safety. Moreover, biomarkers including cytokines and lymphocyte subgroups will be explored. Conclusion: As a single-arm clinical trial, the analysis of the influence of each single treatment is limited. Besides, our study is an open study, which involves neither randomization nor blinding. In spite of the abovementioned limitations, this prospective clinical trial will give an insight into subsequent lines of therapy of HER2-negative advanced breast cancer, prolong the survival or achieve long remission for these participants, and identify potential responders.
