Lenvatinib enhances antitumor immunity of anti-PD-1 antibody.
Review in International journal of clinical oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
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
Lenvatinib is an orally available multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor that mainly targets vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling. These inhibitory activities of lenvatinib exhibit antitumor efficacy, mainly due to their repressive effects on angiogenesis. In addition, a recent non-clinical evaluation using mouse tumor models revealed that lenvatinib causes immunomodulatory effects, including activation of effector T-cells and regulation of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). Combined treatment with lenvatinib and anti-programmed cell death-1 antibody (anti-PD-1) resulted in enhanced antitumor activity relative to monotreatment with anti-PD-1 or lenvatinib. This review summarizes the antitumor mechanisms of lenvatinib and of lenvatinib plus anti-PD-1 combination therapy.
