Safety and efficacy of perioperative dual PD-1 and HER2 blockade in HER2-positive gastric cancer.

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
The use of trastuzumab and programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibitor is effective in patients with HER2-positive advanced gastric or gastro-esophageal junction cancer; however, their use has not been investigated in patients with localized disease. This phase 2 trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of dual PD-1 (sintilimab) and HER2 blockade with chemotherapy in patients with resectable HER2-positive gastric and gastro-esophageal junction adenocarcinoma. 22 patients are enrolled, and 20 patients undergo surgery. The primary endpoint is achieved; 12 (55%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 32-76) of 22 patients have a major pathological response, and 11 (50%, 95% CI: 28-72) of 22 patients achieve pathological complete response. The most common grade 3 treatment-related adverse events are neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. No treatment-related deaths occur. Transcriptomic analysis, bioinformatics analysis, and immunofluorescence staining demonstrate that regulatory T cells are associated with possibility of drug resistance. This study was registered at the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (identifier: ChiCTR2200058732).
