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

Zolbetuximab is an anti-claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2) antibody, and the addition of zolbetuximab in combination with fluoropyrimidine and oxaliplatin as a first-line treatment for CLDN18.2-positive and HER2-negative gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma has been shown to improve survival. However, the efficacy and safety of the combination of zolbetuximab with combinations other than fluoropyrimidine and oxaliplatin have not been elucidated. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the feasibility of combination treatment with trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI), which is effective as a third- or later-line treatment, and zolbetuximab. In this study, 32 patients with CLDN18.2-positive and HER2-negative unresectable or recurrent gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who received two or more lines of chemotherapy will be recruited. The patients will receive FTD/TPI (35 mg/m
