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

Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) has demonstrated efficacy in HER2-positive and HER2-low breast cancer. Its main safety concern is interstitial lung disease, while clinically relevant hepatotoxicity is rarely reported. In our case report we describe a 49-year-old woman with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer that developed persistent grade 3 transaminase elevations after 2 cycles of T-DXd, refractory to corticosteroid treatment and requiring treatment discontinuation. This case underlines the unpredictable and idiosyncratic nature of T-DXd associated hepatotoxicity and the importance of liver function monitoring. Clinicians should consider DILI in patients with unexplained liver enzyme elevations during therapy. Further studies are needed to clarify mechanisms and risk factors.
