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

purposeNivolumab plus ipilimumab (NIVO + IPI) is a first-in-class combination immunotherapy for the treatment of intermediate- or poor (I/P)-risk advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Currently, there are limited real-world data regarding clinical effectiveness beyond 12-24 months from treatment initiation. In this real-world study, treatment patterns and clinical outcomes were evaluated for NIVO + IPI in a community oncology setting.

methodsA retrospective analysis using electronic medical record data from The US Oncology Network examined patients with I/P-risk clear cell mRCC who initiated first-line (1L) NIVO + IPI between January 4, 2018, and December 31, 2019, with follow-up until June 30, 2022. Baseline demographics, clinical characteristics, treatment patterns, clinical effectiveness, and safety outcomes were assessed descriptively. Overall survival (OS) and real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS) were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier methods.

resultsAmong 187 patients identified (median follow-up, 22.4 months), with median age 63 (range, 30-89) years, 74 (39.6%) patients had poor risk and 37 (19.8%) patients had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score ≥2. Of 86 patients who received second-line therapy, 54.7% received cabozantinib and 10.5% received pazopanib. The median (95% CI) OS and rwPFS were 38.4 (24.7-46.1) months and 11.1 (7.5-15.0) months, respectively. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were reported in 89 (47.6%) patients, including fatigue (n = 25, 13.4%) and rash (n = 19, 10.2%).

conclusionThis study provides data to support the understanding of the real-world utilization and long-term effectiveness of 1L NIVO + IPI in patients with I/P-risk mRCC. TRAE rates were low relative to clinical trials.
