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 majority of prostate cancers are hormone-dependent at diagnosis highlighting the central role of androgen signalling in this disease. Surprisingly, most forms of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) are still dependent on the androgen receptor (AR) for survival. Therefore, the advent of new AR-targeting drugs, such as enzalutamide, is certainly beneficial for the many patients with metastatic CRPC. Indeed, this compound provides a substantial survival benefit-but it is not curative. This Perspectives article describes the different ways through which cancer cells can become resistant to enzalutamide, such as AR truncation and other mutations, as well as by-pass of the AR dependence of prostate cancer cells through expression of the glucocorticoid receptor. The clinical relevance of these mechanisms and emerging questions concerning new therapeutic regimens in the treatment of metastatic CRPC are being discussed.
