Palbociclib in HR-Positive, HER2-Negative Advanced/Metastatic Breast Cancer: A Systematic Scoping Review of Real-World Evidence from Countries Outside of Western Regions that Are Underrepresented in Clinical Trials.
Article in Oncology and therapy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionLimited awareness exists regarding real-world data (RWD) for palbociclib in patients with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative advanced/metastatic breast cancer in populations from certain countries outside of Western regions.
methodsA systematic scoping review was conducted using PubMed and Embase to evaluate RWD for palbociclib from countries outside of Western regions that are underrepresented in clinical trials. Search criteria were aligned with our research question for relevant English-language publications, without restrictions on publication date, followed by Phase 1 (title and abstract) and Phase 2 (full-text) screening of retrieved citations as per Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Data analyses of eligible studies were done separately for abstracts and full-text publications to enhance the precision and reliability of the results.
resultsDatabase search yielded 1485 non-duplicate records, 46 qualified for inclusion, of which 47.8% were published as full text. The analysis of outcomes, based exclusively on full-text publications that collectively included 2048 patients treated with palbociclib, revealed the median progression-free survival (PFS) of 20.2-36.7 months, overall survival (OS) of 39.9 months (reported in one publication) and objective response rate (ORR) of 45.3-80.0% with first-line treatment. In ≥ second line, the median PFS, OS and ORR ranged from 7.0 to 24.2 months, 11 to 19.6 months, and 13.9% to 47.9%, respectively. The safety profile of palbociclib was similar to that reported in pivotal clinical studies, and no new safety concerns were identified.
conclusionsA comprehensive volume of evidence demonstrates that palbociclib's effectiveness and safety profile in real-world settings align with those observed in clinical trials, offering valuable insights for clinical decision-making in countries outside of Western regions underrepresented in clinical trials.
