Targeting the Tumor Microenvironment with Immunotherapy for Genitourinary Malignancies.
Review in Current treatment options in oncology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
opinion statementBacillus Calmette-Guérin in urothelial carcinoma, high-dose interleukin-2 in renal cell carcinoma, and sipuleucel-T in prostate cancer serve as enduring examples that the host immune response can be harnessed to promote effective anti-tumor immunity in genitourinary malignancies. Recently, cancer immunotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors has transformed the prognostic landscape leading to durable responses in a subset of urothelial carcinoma and renal cell carcinoma patients with traditionally poor prognosis. Despite this success, many patients fail to respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors and progression/relapse remains common. Furthermore, modest clinical activity has been observed with ICIs as a monotherapy in advanced PCa. As such, novel treatment approaches are warranted and improved biomarkers for patient selection and treatment response are desperately needed. Future efforts should focus on exploring synergistic and rational combinations that safely and effectively boost response rates and survival in genitourinary malignancies. Specific areas of interest include (1) evaluating the optimal sequencing, disease burden, and timing of immuno-oncology agents with other anti-cancer therapeutics and (2) validating novel biomarkers of response to immunotherapy to optimize patient selection and to identify individuals most likely to benefit from immunotherapy across the heterogenous spectrum of genitourinary malignancies.
