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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains a therapeutic challenge due to its aggressive nature and lack of ER, PR and HER2 expression. Recent advances, however, are reshaping its treatment landscape, particularly with antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and immunotherapies. ADCs such as sacituzumab govitecan and datopotamab deruxtecan have demonstrated superior efficacy over standard chemotherapy in metastatic TNBC. Furthermore, combining these ADCs with immune checkpoint inhibitors is emerging as a powerful strategy to enhance antitumor activity, as evidenced by encouraging results from trials like MORPHEUS-panBC and BEGONIA. While most evidence currently centers on metastatic disease, these novel combinations are also being rapidly evaluated in neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings. Given this rapid progress, this article aims to summarize recent advances in ADCs and immunotherapy combinations for TNBC, discuss their synergistic mechanisms, and provide insights for future personalized therapeutic strategies.
