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

We report the case of a 68-year-old man who developed a sigmoidorectal fistula after marked response to enfortumab vedotin for advanced bladder cancer. The patient had undergone radical cystectomy with ileal conduit after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Six months after surgery, local recurrence in the pelvic cavity and multiple lung metastases were found, and the patient was administered pembrolizumab as second-line therapy. Due to worsening local recurrence and suspected invasion of the sigmoid colon and rectum, enfortumab vedotin was initiated as third-line therapy and comprehensive genomic profiling was simultaneously performed. Enfortumab vedotin was remarkably effective, the lung metastases disappeared, and the local recurrent lesion shrank in volume although a sigmoidorectal fistula was found to form through the tumor cavity. Immunohistochemical analysis of the tumor specimens exhibited increased nectin-4 expression. This rare case of metastatic bladder cancer with sigmoidorectal fistula associated with effective enfortumab vedotin therapy suggests that nectin-4 expression and comprehensive genomic profiling might be useful in predicting treatment response to enfortumab vedotin.
