Figure 2 Forest plot of meta-analysis on ORR.

Notes: aExcluded three patients with immeasurable lesions from 15 patients; bexcluded 42 patients with immeasurable lesions from 106 patients. The gray squares indicate the ORR of each study; the red square indicates the pooled overall ORR of all the studies; the transverse line indicates the 95% CI.
Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; ORR, objective response rate.
