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

backgroundAlthough pemetrexed plus cis/carboplatin has become the most effective chemotherapy regimen for patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma, predictive biomarkers are not yet available, and new tools to identify chemosensitive patients who would likely benefit from this treatment are desperately needed. In this study, we constructed and validated predictive peptide models using the serum peptidome profiles of two datasets.

methodsOne hundred eighty-three patients treated with first-line platinum-based pemetrexed treatment for advanced lung adenocarcinoma were retrospectively enrolled and randomized into the training (n = 92) or validation (n = 91) set, and pre-treatment serum samples were analyzed using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and ClinProTools software. Serum peptidome profiles from the training set were used to identify potential predictive peptide biomarkers and construct a predictive peptide model for accurate group discrimination; which was then used to classify validation samples into "good" and "poor" outcome groups. The clinical outcomes of objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were analyzed based on the classification result.

resultsEight potential peptide biomarkers were identified. A predictive peptide model based on four distinct m/z features (2,142.12, 3,316.19, 4,281.94, and 6,624.02 Da) was developed based on the clinical outcomes of training set patients after first-line pemetrexed plus platinum treatment. In the validation set, the good group had significantly higher ORR (49.1% vs. 8.3%, P <0.001) and DCR (96.4% vs. 47.2%, P <0.001), and longer PFS (7.3 months vs. 2.7 months, P <0.001) vs. the poor group. However, the model did not predict OS (13.6 months vs. 12.7 months, P = 0.0675).

conclusionOur predictive peptide model could predict pemetrexed plus platinum treatment outcomes in patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma and might thus facilitate appropriate patient selection. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.
