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

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) represent a novel approach to cancer treatment. Enfortumab vedotin (PADCEV), as a prominent example, has demonstrated remarkable clinical efficacy. However, its ocular toxicity has raised concerns. This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying PADCEV-induced ocular toxicity. SD rats, whose ocular structures are similar to those of humans, were selected to establish an ocular toxicity model to mimic the human response. In vitro experiments were conducted using human primary corneal epithelial cells, HCE-T. The results confirmed that nectin-4 plays a crucial role in the cellular uptake of PADCEV, and non-specific pinocytosis is also involved. Additionally, a variant was obtained by introducing point mutations in the Fc region of PADCEV, which was found to reduce corneal epithelial toxicity. The findings of this study not only deepen our understanding of ADC-induced ocular toxicity but also provide new insights into optimizing ADC design and enhancing treatment safety.
