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

There have been tremendous advancements in immunotherapy approaches for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) from the initial interleukin-2 era to the current immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) combinations. Several ICI-based therapies have greatly improved outcomes for patients with RCC with the potential for durable responses for a subset of patients. In this chapter, we review the data of key frontline ICI-based combinations for RCC in the metastatic setting and recent data on adjuvant immunotherapy. We also discuss recent data on the role of immunotherapy rechallenge following prior ICI treatment as well as emerging novel immunotherapy strategies with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T and gut microbiome interventions. Lastly, we highlight a multidisciplinary team-based approach for patients with RCC treated with ICI including management of immune-related adverse events as well as potential role of cytoreductive nephrectomy in an evolving treatment landscape.
