A long‑term complete response to namodenoson in liver cancer with Child‑Pugh B cirrhosis: A case report.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Established treatments for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with Child-Pugh cirrhosis B (CPB, moderate hepatic dysfunction) are lacking. A recently published randomized phase 2 study in CPB HCC investigating the safety and efficacy of namodenoson (25 mg BID), an A3 adenosine-receptor agonist vs. placebo, suggested a favorable safety profile and a positive efficacy signal in patients with HCC with a CPB score of 7 (CPB7). The present study reports a 61-year-old woman with CPB7 HCC who received namodenoson for over 6 years through this study and its open-label extension. Computed tomography scans demonstrated partial and complete responses after 7 weeks and 4 years of treatment, respectively. Low albumin levels (31 g/l) and elevated baseline levels of alanine transaminase and aspartate aminotransferase (68 U/l and 44 U/l, respectively) were reported. After 4 weeks of treatment, these levels normalized and were stable for over 6 years. No treatment-emergent adverse events were noted. At the time of reporting, the response is ongoing as manifested by imaging studies and liver function evaluation.
