Optimising Cancer Medicine in Clinical Practices: Are Neoadjuvant and Adjuvant Immunotherapies Affordable for Cancer Patients in Low- and Middle-Income Countries?
Article in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Cancer immunotherapy, encompassing neoadjuvant and adjuvant interventions, has transformed treatment paradigms in multiple malignancies by leveraging the host immune system to combat tumour cells. While immunotherapies have demonstrated remarkable efficacy, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors, high treatment costs undermine their accessibility and affordability in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This paper provides a prospective overview of the clinical benefits of neoadjuvant and adjuvant immunotherapies, examines the barriers to implementing these treatments in LMICs, and suggests potential strategies to improve equitable access. Such interventions necessitate a combined effort from healthcare providers, policymakers, and stakeholders to ensure their sustainable integration into global cancer care.
