Article in Translational oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02187848 (A First-in-Human Study for the Evaluation of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Antitumor Activity of SAR408701 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors), which is not on this map.

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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundTusamitamab ravtansine demonstrated antitumor activity in the Phase 1/1b study of advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer with high (HE, ≥2+ intensity in ≥50 % of tumor cells) or moderate (ME, ≥2+ intensity in ≥1 % to <50 % of tumor cells) carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5 (CEACAM5) expression. Tumor CEACAM5 expression, biomarker associations and whether biomarkers predict objective response rate (ORR) were explored.

methodsWe assessed CEACAM5, circulating CEACAM5 (cCEACAM5) and CEA (cCEA). Enrollment was according to immunohistochemistry (IHC) CEACAM5 membrane expression: HE (n=64) and ME (n=28). Patients received tusamitamab ravtansine 100 mg/m

resultscCEA and cCEACAM5 were strongly associated (Spearman ρ, 0.99), with moderate associations between IHC CEACAM5 and cCEA or cCEACAM5 (Spearman ρ, 0.43 and 0.38). In patients with baseline cCEA data, 40.3 % (25/62) of HE and 25 % (7/28) of ME had cCEA ≥100 µg/L (median: 71.6 µg/L [1-8809] versus 12.4 µg/L [0.5-684]). Among response-evaluable patients in HE, ORR for high cCEA (≥100 µg/L) was 41.7 % (10/24) versus 8.1 % (3/37) for low cCEA, and in ME, ORR was 0/7 versus 10 % (2/20). Elevated CEACAM5 mRNA was observed in HE versus ME (P = 0.0027). EGFR and KRAS alterations were present in 44.8 % and 65.5 % of HE and in 21.4 % and 78.6 % of ME patients, respectively.

conclusionsIn CEACAM5 HE, the ORR was greater with high versus low cCEA. Associations were observed between cCEA and cCEACAM5; IHC CEACAM5, cCEA, and cCEACAM5; IHC CEACAM5 and CEACAM5 mRNA, but not between IHC CEACAM5 and oncogenic drivers. CLINICAL
