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

The development of molecular targeted therapeutics in oncology builds on many years of scientific investigation into the cellular mechanics of malignant transformation and progression. The past two decades have brought an accelerating pace to the clinical investigation of new molecular targeted agents, particularly in the setting of metastatic disease. The integration of molecular targeted agents into phase III clinical trial design has lagged in the curative treatment setting, particularly in combination with established therapeutic modalities such as radiation. In this review, we discuss the interaction of radiation and molecular targeted therapeutics. The dynamics of cellular and tumor response to radiation offer unique opportunities for beneficial interplay with molecular targeted agents that may go unrecognized with conventional screening and monotherapy clinical testing of novel agents. By using epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) as a primary example, we discuss recent clinical studies that illustrate the potential synergy of molecular targeted agents with radiation and highlight the clinical value of such interactions. For various molecular targeted agents, their greatest clinical impact may rest in combination with radiation, and efforts to facilitate systematic investigation of this approach appear highly warranted.
