Efficacy of Paclitaxel and Cetuximab in Recurrent/Metastatic Oral Cancer Cases Following Superselective Intraarterial Chemoradiotherapy: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Cancer diagnosis & prognosis. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background/Aim: The therapeutic efficacy of the paclitaxel (PTX) + cetuximab (Cmab) combination regimen was investigated in patients with recurrence or metastasis after superselective intraarterial chemoradiotherapy (SSIACRT) for oral cancer, and the safety was retrospectively examined. Patients and Methods: All enrolled patients with advanced oral cancer or who had refused surgery over 10 years from December 2012 to December 2022 underwent SSIACRT for 6 to 9 weeks [cisplatin (CDDP): total 160-630 mg/m Results: The overall response rate was 44.4% (four of nine cases), and the disease control rate was 88.9% (eight of nine cases), whereas the median progression-free survival was seven months, and the overall survival was 11 months. Grade 3-4 adverse events were neutropenia in 33.3% of the cases, leukopenia in 55.6%, anemia in 22.2%, and acneiform skin rash in 22.2%. Based on the above, PTX + Cmab therapy for recurrent and metastatic cases after SSIACRT had comparable results to other second-line modalities and enabled to cope with the side effects of myelosuppression. Conclusion: PTX + Cmab therapy may be an effective treatment mode for recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer resistant to CDDP after SSIACRT treatment.
