Clinical research progress of fruquintinib in the treatment of malignant tumors.
Synthesis in Investigational new drugs, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Malignant tumors represent an important cause of mortality within the global population. Tumor angiogenesis, recognized as one of the key hallmarks of malignant tumors, is crucial for supplying essential nutrients and oxygen for tumor growth. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptor (VEGFR) are key drivers of tumor angiogenesis. Targeted therapeutic interventions not only effectively inhibit tumor growth by specifically blocking tumor angiogenesis but have also made breakthroughs in the treatment of malignant tumors. Fruquintinib, an anti-angiogenic small molecule drug developed independently in China, functions as a potent tyrosine kinase inhibitor with high selectivity. It effectively curtails tumor growth by binding to and inhibiting VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2, and VEGFR-3. Additionally, fruquintinib offers several advantages including minimal off-target toxicity, robust resistance profiles, and commendable efficacy. This agent can be used alone or in combination with other treatments. It has shown high effectiveness and survival benefits across various malignant tumors such as colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, and other malignant tumors. Therefore, this article conducts a systematic review encompassing the mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, clinical efficacy, and safety profile of fruquintinib. Through this review, we aimed to offer a reference for the clinical application and subsequent development of fruquintinib.
