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
backgroundEffective management with second-line therapy with the lenvatinib + pembrolizumab regimen for patients with advanced endometrial cancer is necessary.
methodsThis retrospective study enrolled patients with endometrial cancer treated with the lenvatinib + pembrolizumab regimen. We evaluated progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), safety for patients non-eligible for the KEYNOTE775 trial, aged ≥65 years, or with ECOG performance status 1-2.
resultsForty-five patients were analyzed: 21 (47%) were aged ˃ 65 years, 16 (36%) had performance status 1-2, and 15 (33%) were non-eligible for KEYNOTE775 trial participation. Overall, the median PFS was 8.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 4.6-12.4), and the median OS was 15.6 months (95% CI 9.4-NA). Median PFS was significantly shorter in patients not eligible for KEYNOTE775 participation and with performance status 1-2. The median OS was significantly shorter in patients with performance status 1-2. Grade ˃3 adverse events (AEs) occurred in 78% of patients who received the lenvatinib + pembrolizumab regimen. AEs resulted in lenvatinib dose reductions in 35 patients (78%) and lenvatinib and pembrolizumab discontinuation in 3 (7%) and 5 (11%), respectively. The median time to the first lenvatinib dose reduction was 1.5 (0.92-2.3) months in all patients and was significantly shorter in patients aged >65 years.
conclusionsThe current regimen has favorable efficacy and manageable safety with appropriate dose reduction of lenvatinib in the real world. However, the efficacy may be inferior in patients with performance status 1 or 2, heavily treated patients, and those with organ dysfunction. The current treatment status should reflect real-world data relative to the medical environment and management.
