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.

Abstract

Exportin-1 (XPO-1) is related to drug resistance and poor prognosis in solid tumors. Selinexor, an XPO-1 inhibitor, has shown preclinical and clinical activity in sarcomas. This Phase I study explores the combination of gemcitabine and selinexor in a classic 3 + 3 design. Adult patients with selected advanced sarcomas receive gemcitabine and weekly selinexor in 21-day cycles. The main endpoint is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). Secondary end-points include safety, overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), and quality of life. Seventeen patients are included in this study. One dose-limiting toxicity (grade 4 thrombocytopenia) is detected in dose-level +3, but the R2PD is established at dose-level +2 (gemcitabine at 1200 mg/m² at 10 mg/m²/min followed by 60 mg weekly selinexor) based on its better tolerability. The most frequent adverse events are neutropenia (82.4%) and thrombocytopenia (76.5%). The ORR is 31.25 %, and the median OS (mOS) is 39.5 months (95% CI, 12.4-67) with a 36-month OS rate of 50.2%. A phase II is currently exploring this combination in leiomyosarcoma and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors. Trial registration: NCT04595994.
