1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Tarlatamab, a DLL3-targeting bispecific T-cell engager, has rapidly assumed the role of a new standard of care in the later-line treatment of extensive-stage SCLC. Little is known about the efficacy of tarlatamab in other histologies such as DLL3-expressing metastatic pulmonary carcinoid tumor, a clinical entity without many approved management options. Here, we report the case of a patient with metastatic atypical carcinoid tumor which had progressed on multiple previous therapies. Her tumor strongly expressed DLL3 protein and had clinical response to tarlatamab therapy. This case indicates that this novel therapy may be an efficacious option in other pulmonary neuroendocrine cancers.
