Off-label Use of Dinutuximab Beta in Combination With Chemotherapy in Patients With Ewing Sarcoma: A Retrospective Single-center Case Series.

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
Surface expression of the disialoganglioside subtype GD2 has been observed on Ewing sarcoma (ES) cells, making it a suitable target for immunotherapy with the anti-GD2 antibody dinutuximab beta (DB). Here we report our experience of using DB in a cohort of 13 patients with GD2-positive, metastatic ES, in both the frontline (n=9) and relapsed/refractory (n=4) settings, when added to standard chemotherapeutic regimens. Outcomes were compared with 24 patients, primarily with localized ES, who were also treated at our center with standard therapy alone (without DB). Patients treated with DB had a median overall survival (OS) of 1877 days in the frontline setting and 810 days in the relapsed/refractory setting. Median time to progression was 1811 days and 782 days, respectively. In contrast, those treated with standard therapy alone in our center demonstrated a median OS of 1547 days and 210 days in the frontline and relapsed/refractory setting, respectively, with median times of progression of 1261 days and 113 days. DB treatment was well tolerated, with no new or unexpected adverse events reported. Anti-GD2 immunotherapy with DB represents a promising therapeutic option to improve outcomes in patients with metastatic ES, in both the frontline and relapsed/refractory settings.
