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

Objective: To identify adverse event (ADE) signals of three tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) (Tucatinib, Lapatinib, and Neratinib) used for HER-2 positive breast cancer by utilizing the FAERS database, and to analyze their safety profiles to provide references for clinical risk management. Methods: Data from the FAERS database spanning Q1 2015 to Q3 2024 were retrieved, including reports where Tucatinib, Lapatinib, or Neratinib was identified as the primary suspect drug. Disproportionality analysis (ROR, PRR) and the Comprehensive Standard method were employed to detect potential ADE signals. The distribution of ADEs across different System Organ Classifications (SOCs) was also analyzed. Results: A total of 7,848 ADE reports were analyzed, identifying 557 significant signals. The primary ADEs were concentrated in gastrointestinal disorders, general conditions, administration site reactions, and skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders. Neratinib exhibited higher gastrointestinal toxicity, Lapatinib was associated with notable skin toxicities, and Tucatinib showed specific adverse reactions linked to combination therapies. Conclusion: The three TKIs demonstrated distinct ADE signal profiles, with gastrointestinal, systemic, and skin toxicities being the major areas of concern. Future research should validate these findings and develop effective management strategies to enhance treatment safety and improve the quality of life for HER-2 positive breast cancer patients.
