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

purposeTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of izalontamab brengitecan (iza-bren) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring actionable genomic alterations (GAs) outside of classical epidermal growth factor receptor (

methodsEligible patients had locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with prespecific actionable GAs, had progressed after standard treatment and received no more than one previous line of chemotherapy. iza-bren was administered at the dose of 2.5 mg/kg once per day on days 1 and 8 of each 3-week cycle. The primary end point was safety. The secondary end points included objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and duration of response. The exploratory end points included progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).

resultsA total of 83 patients with NSCLC were enrolled in four cohorts:

conclusioniza-bren demonstrated encouraging antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile in pretreated NSCLC patients with diverse GAs outside of classical
