Three-Year Overall Survival With Nivolumab Plus Relatlimab in Advanced Melanoma From RELATIVITY-047.
Trial report in Journal of clinical oncology : official journal of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03470922 (A Randomized, Double-Blind Phase 2/3 Study of Relatlimab Combined With Nivolumab Versus Nivolumab in Participants With Previously Untreated Metastatic or Unresectable Melanoma), which is not on this map. Cited by 53 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

Abstract
Nivolumab plus relatlimab demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival (PFS), along with a clinically meaningful, but not statistically significant improvement in overall survival (OS) and a numerically higher objective response rate (ORR) compared with nivolumab in the RELATIVITY-047 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03470922). We report updated descriptive efficacy and safety results from RELATIVITY-047 with a median follow-up of 33.8 months. Median PFS was 10.2 months (95% CI, 6.5 to 15.4) with nivolumab plus relatlimab and 4.6 months (95% CI, 3.5 to 6.5) with nivolumab (hazard ratio [HR], 0.79 [95% CI, 0.66 to 0.95]); median OS was 51.0 months (95% CI, 34.0 to not reached) and 34.1 (95% CI, 25.2 to 44.7) months, respectively (HR, 0.80 [95% CI, 0.66 to 0.99]). ORR was 43.7% (95% CI, 38.4 to 49.0) with nivolumab plus relatlimab and 33.7% (95% CI, 28.8 to 38.9) with nivolumab. Efficacy across the majority of prespecified subgroups favored the combination. No new or unexpected safety signals were identified. Overall, at 3-year follow-up, the benefit observed with nivolumab plus relatlimab compared with nivolumab in patients with advanced melanoma was sustained, with the OS HR 95% CI upper bound now <1. This benefit is accompanied by a safety profile consistent with previous reports.
