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

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy with oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, and leucovorin (FOLFOX-HAIC) combined with donafenib and camrelizumab in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC). Patients and Methods: This retrospective study analyzed clinical data from 49 uHCC patients treated with FOLFOX-HAIC, donafenib tablets, and camrelizumab at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between November 1, 2021, and November 30, 2024. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR), assessed according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 and modified RECIST (mRECIST). Secondary endpoints included surgical conversion rate, disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), duration of response (DOR), and safety. Results: The median follow-up duration was 20.3 months. Patients had a mean age of 55.9 years and a mean tumor diameter of 9.9 cm, with 25 patients (51%) presenting with extrahepatic metastasis. According to RECIST v1.1, the ORR was 57.1%, and the DCR was 79.6%. Under mRECIST criteria, the ORR increased to 59.2%, while the DCR remained at 79.6%. The median PFS was 12.1 months, and the median OS was 26.0 months. Twelve patients (24.5%) achieved successful conversion, with five patients (10.2%) undergoing surgery achieving R0 resections. Two patients (4.1%) achieved a pathological complete response (pCR). All patients experienced treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), with Hypoalbuminemia (87.8%) and Hand-foot skin reaction (79.6%) being the most common. Grade 3 or higher TRAEs were observed in 61.2% of patients. Conclusion: For patients with uHCC, the combination therapy of FOLFOX-HAIC with donafenib and camrelizumab demonstrates favorable efficacy and manageable adverse events.
