Risk of Ophthalmotoxicity Associated with Antibody-Drug Conjugates: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Clinical drug investigation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundAntibody-drug conjugates provide significant advantages in cancer therapy, but their associated ophthalmotoxicity remains insufficiently explored.
objectiveOur objective was to determine the prevalence and risk of ophthalmotoxicity in patients receiving antibody-drug conjugates.
methodsWe conducted a systematic search in MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane, and ClinicalTrials.gov for phase II or III randomized clinical trials reporting ocular adverse events linked to antibody-drug conjugates up to 5 March, 2025. The Cochrane Bias Risk Assessment Tool was used to assess the risk of bias. The primary outcome was the risk of all-grade ocular adverse events induced by antibody-drug conjugates, measured by the risk ratio (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
resultsThirty-one trials consisting of 18,490 patients were ultimately included. The pooled incidence of all-grade ocular adverse events following antibody-drug conjugate therapy was 10.45% (95% CI 4.51-18.42). Antibody-drug conjugates were linked to a potentially increased risk of ophthalmotoxicity (RR = 1.76, 95% CI 1.25-2.48), particularly with monomethyl auristatin E (RR = 2.73, 95% CI 1.42-5.28) and monomethyl auristatin F (RR = 3.01, 95% CI 2.58-3.52) payloads. Dry eye was the most common ocular manifestation (15.49%, 95% CI 7.66-25.38).
conclusionsAntibody-drug conjugate therapy has been associated with an elevated risk of ophthalmotoxicity. Further research is needed to explore the influence of antibody-drug conjugate components, disease characteristics, and treatment regimens on ophthalmotoxicity risk. CLINICAL
