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

Background: Dual blockade therapy encorafenib-cetuximab (EC) was recently established as the standard of care for second- or third-line treatment for Materials and methods: This retrospective study included Results: Eighty-one patients were included after at least 5 months of follow-up before study onset, 50.6% female with a median age of 66.1 years. Overall, 65% of patients debuted with synchronous metastatic disease. Patients received a median of six EC cycles. The median OS and PFS after 9.7 months of follow-up were 12.6 and 5.0 months, respectively. The median DoR was 5.8 months. ORR was 33.8% and DCR was 68.8%. Alkaline phosphatase, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio and three or more metastatic lesions were accurate prognostic factors for OS. Additionally, the presence of liver metastases has prognostic value for PFS. The most reported adverse events (AEs) were skin-related toxicities (43.2%). Grade ≥3 AEs occurred in 13.5% of patients. Conclusions: Our results align with the BEACON trial results, confirming the safety and efficacy of EC in the RW setting and additionally provide insight about survival prognostic factors.
