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

backgroundAdvanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer has a poor prognosis, and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) plus platinum-based combination chemotherapy is the first-line treatment. Atezolizumab, an ICI, has three regimens: atezolizumab + carboplatin (CBDCA) + paclitaxel + bevacizumab [ABCP], atezolizumab + CBDCA + nab-paclitaxel (nab-PTX) [A + CnP], and atezolizumab + CBDCA + pemetrexed [A + CbP]. However, clinical trials directly comparing these regimens have not been reported, and the differences in adverse events have not been fully clarified.

methodsWe calculated the reporting odds ratio (ROR), a measure of adverse drug reaction (ADR) signals, using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) to compare the major ADRs of ABCP, A + CnP, and A + CbP regimens.

resultsThe ROR (95% confidence interval [CI]) for rash and hypersensitivity-related adverse events was 2.06 (1.81-2.34) for ABCP, 0.81 (0.42-1.56) for A + CnP, and 0.57 (0.37-0.87) for A + CbP; the signal was only detected for the ABCP regimen. In acute kidney injury (AKI), it was ABCP: 1.24 (0.89-1.73), A + CnP: 1.16 (0.37-3.60), and A + CbP: 1.76 (1.06-2.93), and signal was detected only for the A + CbP regimen. Contrarily, signals were detected for colitis, drug-induced liver injury, and pneumonitis for all regimens.

conclusionsRash and hypersensitivity-related adverse events and AKI were more frequently reported with the ABCP and A + CbP regimens, respectively. These observations may help generate hypotheses regarding regimen-specific adverse event profiles and support future studies toward individualized chemotherapy.
