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

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality. Great advances in non-small cell lung cancer therapy have been seen in the last decade, beginning with the success in treating lung cancer harboring EGFR mutations and ALK-gene rearrangements. The potential of these biomarker-driven therapies has propelled research in biomarker targeted approaches to the forefront of lung cancer research. The successful development of immunotherapeutic agents targeting PD-L1 and PD-1 with an associated non-genomic biomarker has opened a new front in the effort for targeted approaches. Although early-phase lung cancer studies have hinted at the potential to use biomarkers to select patients for allocation to treatment in the conduct of clinical trials, data from late-phase studies have tempered expectations. The data leave unclear the wisdom of routinely restricting enrollment on lung cancer clinical trials to biomarker restricted populations, particularly non-genomic biomarkers.
