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 objective of the study was to investigate whether specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with influence on drug transport, biotransformation and repair mechanisms are associated with treatment outcome and toxicity in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We genotyped blood samples from 519 mCRC patients treated with first-line 5-fluorouracil and oxaliplatin +/- cetuximab for 17 SNPs in 10 genes involved in membrane transport (ABCC1 and ABCC2), drug biotransformation (GSTP1 and AGXT) and DNA repair (ERCC1, ERCC2, XRCC1, XRCC3, XPG and MSH6). The AGXT-rs34116584 and the ERCC2-rs238406 polymorphisms were significantly associated with progression-free survival (P=0.002 and P=0.001, respectively). Associations between 18 toxicity variables and SNPs were identified, although none were significant after Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons. The study identified SNPs of potential use as markers of clinical outcome in oxaliplatin-treated mCRC patients. If validated in other studies, they could improve the selection of therapy in mCRC.
