First-line Enfortumab Vedotin Plus Pembrolizumab in Platinum-ineligible Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma.

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
Background/Aim: Platinum-ineligible patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma represent a clinically vulnerable population with limited treatment options and poor historical outcomes. Although first-line enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab has become a new standard treatment, evidence in platinum-ineligible patients remains limited. This study described the real-world clinical course of platinum-ineligible patients treated with first-line enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab within a consecutive cohort. Patients and Methods: This retrospective single-center study included 40 consecutive patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who initiated first-line enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab between December 2024 and March 2026. Platinum eligibility was determined using prespecified creatinine clearance-based criteria. Tumor response, progression-free survival, overall survival, treatment-related adverse events, and individual treatment courses were evaluated descriptively. Results: Among 40 patients, eight were classified as platinum ineligible. Tumor response was evaluable in six platinum-ineligible patients, of whom one achieved complete response and three achieved partial response. Median progression-free survival and overall survival were not reached in the platinum-ineligible subgroup. Grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events were infrequent. The swimmer plot demonstrated heterogeneous clinical trajectories, including early discontinuation in some patients and prolonged treatment exposure or off-treatment disease control in others. Conclusion: First-line enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab showed encouraging clinical activity and acceptable tolerability in selected platinum-ineligible patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma. Given the small subgroup size, these findings should be interpreted as descriptive and hypothesis-generating.
