Excellent Results in the Off-Label Use of Denosumab in Pediatric Oncology: Monocentric Case Series Study.
Article in Case reports in pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Denosumab is a human monoclonal antibody approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2013 for use in adults with inoperable giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB). In children, it is used as an off-label drug in some giant cell-rich tumors of bone (GCRTB) and giant cell granuloma (GCG). The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and acute toxicity of denosumab in children. From February 2022 to December 2023, at the Istituto Giannina Gaslini, 5 patients were treated with denosumab, 2 females and 3 males. Age ranged from 8 to 17 years. Two had ABC (hemipelvis and D9), and 3 had GCG (sphenoid, jaw, and maxilla). An assay of calcium and vitamin D as well as a dental scan was performed before administering denosumab due to possible side effects such as hypocalcemia and jaw osteonecrosis. Therapy was given subcutaneously at the dose of 70 mg/m
