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.

Abstract

aimsThis retrospective, chart-review study evaluated real-world outcomes post-frontline brigatinib in ALTA-1L.

methodsPatients from ALTA-1L were followed after brigatinib discontinuation. Outcomes evaluated for second-line (2L) treatment included real-world overall response rate (rwORR), time to treatment discontinuation (rwTTD), and progression-free survival (rwPFS).

resultsForty of 48 patients received subsequent systemic anticancer therapies; 30 received 2L ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), mostly lorlatinib (n = 16) or alectinib (n = 8), and 11 received 2L non-ALK TKI therapy (one with alectinib). rwORR was 33% with 2L ALK TKIs and 0% with 2L non-ALK TKI therapy. Median (95% confidence interval [CI]) 2L rwTTD was 34.7 months (4.6-not reached [NR]) for ALK TKIs (lorlatinib, 37.2 months [6.0-NR]; alectinib, NR [1.1-NR]; crizotinib, 2.8 months [2.0-NR]) and 4.4 months (1.4-6.0) for 2L non-ALK TKI therapy. Median (95% CI) 2L rwPFS was 16.1 months (4.4-NR) with ALK TKIs (lorlatinib, 25.6 months [3.8-NR]; alectinib, 16.1 months [1.1-NR]; crizotinib, 2.4 months [2.0-NR]) and 6.1 months (1.7-NR) with 2L non-ALK TKI therapy.

conclusionsFollowing brigatinib discontinuation, most patients initiated a second ALK TKI. Patients treated with 2L second- or third-generation ALK TKIs post-brigatinib experienced prolonged clinical benefit. CLINICAL
