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.

Abstract

backgroundTusamitamab ravtansine (SAR408701) is an immunoconjugate that binds carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5 (CEACAM5) and delivers its cytotoxic payload to target cells. Here, we report findings from three dosing regimens of tusamitamab ravtansine administration in Japanese adults with advanced malignant solid tumors.

methodsJapanese adults (aged ≥ 20 years) with CEACAM5-expressing malignant solid tumors were enrolled in this Phase 1, open-label, non-randomized, dose-escalation evaluation of tusamitamab ravtansine in three parts: (i) main dose-escalation part with every two weeks (Q2W) administration, (ii) loading dose (LD) part with Q2W administration with a LD at Cycle 1 (C1) only, and (iii) dose-escalation every three weeks (Q3W) part. Primary objectives were to evaluate the tolerability and safety of tusamitamab ravtansine.

resultsNine patients were enrolled in the main dose-escalation part, 16 patients in the dose-escalation bis part with LD, and nine patients in the dose-escalation Q3W part. Administration of tusamitamab ravtansine resulted in a manageable safety profile with no dose-limiting toxicities reported during the observation period except for two events during dose-escalation bis Q2W part. Most common adverse events (AEs) were corneal events, gastrointestinal disorders, and metabolic events. After first administration, tusamitamab ravtansine exposure was dose proportional over the dose range 80-170 mg/m

conclusionTusamitamab ravtansine demonstrated a tolerable safety profile at a dose of 80-170 mg/m
