Successful treatment of primary advanced gastric plasmacytoma using a combination of surgical resection and chemotherapy with bortezomib: A case report.

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.
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
introductionExtramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is a plasma cell neoplasm that presents as a solitary tumor. EMP in the gastrointestinal organs are extremely uncommon. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 36-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with advanced anemia. He had no specific medical history. Gastroendoscopic findings showed an 8.0-cm submucosal tumor with ulcer on the greater curvature of the gastric body. Fine-needle aspiration was performed, and the pathologic diagnosis of the submucosal tumor was a plasmacytoma. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with gastric plasmacytoma. A total gastrectomy was performed with lymphadenectomy. The result of intraoperative peritoneal lavage cytology was positive. Histological examination revealed serosa-exposed plasmacytoma of the stomach with lymph nodes metastasis. Additionaly the patient received a three-drug chemotherapy regimen (bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone [VCD]) from 3 weeks after the operation. After 4 cycles of chemotherapy, the patient received autologous peripheral blood stem-cell transplantation (auto-PBSCT). Eighteen months after diagnosis, the patient is in complete remission with no evidence of local relapse or evolution to multiple myeloma.
conclusionsThis is the first reported case of advanced gastric plasmacytoma using adjuvant chemotherapy involving bortezomib and auto-PBSCT after the resection, and the patient has maintained a good course over a year. This protocol could be a new way to treat these tumors.
