Pharmacokinetics of trastuzumab and its efficacy and safety in HER2-positive cancer patients.
Review in Cancer chemotherapy and pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Trastuzumab is a potent targeted therapy drug for HER2-positive cancer patients. A comprehensive understanding of trastuzumab's mechanism of action, pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters, and steady-state exposure in different treatment regimens and administration routes is essential for a thorough evaluation of the drug's safety and effectiveness. Due to the distinctive pharmacokinetics, indications, and administration methods of trastuzumab, this understanding becomes crucial. Drug exposure can be assessed by measuring trastuzumab's peak concentration, trough concentration, or area under the curve through assays like enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) or liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The dose-response (D-R) and exposure-response (E-R) relationships establish the correlation between drug dosage/exposure and the therapeutic effect and safety. Additionally, various covariates such as body weight, aspartate transaminase, and albumin levels can influence drug exposure. This review provides a comprehensive overview of trastuzumab's mechanism of action, data on steady-state concentration and PK parameters under multiple administration routes and indications, discussions on factors influencing PK parameters, and evaluations of the effectiveness and safety of E-R and D-R in diverse HER2-positive cancer patients.
