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

Surufatinib is a novel, China-developed small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor that demonstrates high selectivity for VEGFR, FGFR1, and CSF1R. Surufatinib has been approved for the treatment of neuroendcrine tumors, including pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNEN) and non-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (N-pNEN). The purpose of this retrospective study is to assess Surufatinib's safety and effectiveness in patients with various advanced solid malignancies. The general clinical statistics and follow-up data of patients treated with Surufatinib for advanced solid tumors at Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital between January 2021 and April 2024 were gathered. Enhanced CT was used to assess the effectiveness during that time, and cases side effects were gathered. Survival rates of different diseases were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. A total of 28 eligible patients were enrolled in this study. At the end of follow-up, treatment with Surufatinib resulted in the following outcomes: Complete response (CR) in 0 cases (0.0%), Partial response (PR) in 5 cases (17.9%), Stable disease (SD) in 7 cases (25.0%), and Progressive disease (PD) in 16 cases (57.1%). Objective response rate (ORR) and Disease control rate (DCR) were 17.9% and 42.9%, respectively. In the PNEN group, ORR was 33.3%, DCR was 66.7%, median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 11 months, while median overall survival (mOS) was 17 months. In the N-pNEN group, ORR was 14.3%, DCR was 42.3%, mPFS was 6 months and mOS was 7 months. ORR was 8.3%, DCR was 25%, mPFS was 2 months, and mOS was 2 months. The most common adverse reactions included hypoproteinemia, proteinuria, bone marrow suppression and gastrointestinal toxicity, and which of them were grade 1 to grade 2. In advanced solid tumors beyond PNEN, Surufatinib demonstrates clinically meaningful survival benefits for patients refractory to standard therapies, with a generally manageable safety profile.
