Activity of Anlotinib in the Second-Line Therapy of Metastatic Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors: A Prospective, Multicenter, In Vitro Study.
Trial report in The oncologist, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAnlotinib is a multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor that can effectively inhibit tumor cell proliferation after receptor kinase activation caused by KIT gene mutation.
methodsWe tested the inhibitory effect of anlotinib in GIST cell lines with different gene mutations and evaluated the efficacy of anlotinib for patients with metastatic GIST after imatinib failure in a multicenter, single-arm, phase II study.
resultsIn vitro, V654A mutation encoded by KIT exon 13 was intermediately sensitive to anlotinib. Moreover, anlotinib was able to partly suppress the activation loop mutation D820A from exon 17 while another activation loop mutation N822K, also from exon 17, was resistant to anlotinib. From September 2018 to October 2020, 64 patients from 9 Chinese medical centers were enrolled in this study. Seven patients had partial response and 39 patients had stable disease. The median PFS was 8.0 months. There was no statistical significance comparing with PFS of sunitinib second-line therapy at the same period. The most common adverse events related to anlotinib treatment were hypertension, neutropenia, and fatigue.
conclusionAnlotinib showed moderate antitumor activity in drug-resistant GIST cell lines in vitro, and good PFS and better tolerance in second-line therapy study.
