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

Subcutaneous (SC) administration is transforming the delivery of biopharmaceuticals, facilitating care in a variety of healthcare settings, including home self-treatment. Large-volume single SC doses have gained attention for their potential to expand therapeutic applications and improve long-term, patient-centric dosing regimens, often at a reduced SC injection frequency. However, a systematic understanding of dose volumes and frequencies for large-volume (>2.0 mL) SC biopharmaceuticals (LVSCs) is lacking. Accordingly, this study systematically reviewed clinical-stage and approved intravenous (IV) and SC biopharmaceuticals, identifying 182 LVSCs - predominantly monoclonal or bispecific antibodies - which correspond to approximately 15% of all IV and SC biopharmaceuticals. These LVSCs are designed to target cancer and a range of non-cancer chronic disease states, including autoimmune, neurological, and cardiovascular diseases. Results show that anti-cancer LVSCs (
