PD-1 monoclonal antibodies as an effective treatment for rare cutaneous malignancies: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Adnexal carcinoma and adenosquamous carcinoma are rare forms of skin malignancy that are usually treated via surgical resection or radiotherapy. These cancers become clinically challenging when localized treatment is not feasible. In addition, the cosmetic and functional defects resulting from radical surgical resection of tumors in peri-orbital areas need to be considered. The checkpoint inhibitors pembrolizumab and cemiplimab have been effective treatments for a number of cutaneous malignancies. We present cases of adenosquamous skin cancer and eyelid sebaceous gland cancer that achieved rapid, complete pathological and radiological remission in response to treatment with single agent PD-1 monoclonal antibodies. These patients had minimal, if any toxicity associated with treatment and have each remained recurrence-free for over a year of follow up. The therapeutic potential of PD-1 monoclonal antibodies as a treatment for these rare skin malignancies warrants further evaluation in clinical trials.
