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

backgroundThere is no established treatment for patients with recurrent/metastatic (R/M) olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB), a rare sinonasal tumor. We conducted the first immunotherapy clinical trial (NCT05012098) in patients with R/M ONB, to evaluate the activity of the bifunctional TGF-β "trap"/anti-PD-L1 fusion protein bintrafusp alfa (BA).

methodsPatients received BA (1200 mg, intravenously) every 2 weeks. Primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR); secondary objectives included safety, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS).

resultsBetween June 2022 and June 2023, 11 patients received treatment (Cohort 1, no prior immunotherapy, n=9; Cohort 2, prior immunotherapy received, n=2); enrollment was stopped due to BA development discontinuation. No objective responses were observed. In Cohort 1, 4 patients (of 8 evaluable, 50%) had stable disease (SD), three confirmed and long lasting; median PFS was 3.7 months, median OS was not reached; and one of SD patients had a complete metabolic response on

conclusionsAlthough the primary endpoint was not met, BA showed a manageable safety profile and a subset of patients derived clinical benefit with prolonged stable disease, including one patient with a complete metabolic response. This first clinical trial of systemic therapy in R/M ONB serves as proof of clinical trials feasibility in this setting and supports further investigation of combinatorial immunotherapy strategies in this patient population.
