A Recurrent Platinum Refractory Ovarian Cancer Patient With a Partial Response After RRx-001 Resensitization to Platinum Doublet.
Article in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02489903 (A Phase II Study of RRx-001 in Platinum Refractory/Resistant Small Cell Carcinoma, EGFR TKI Resistant EGFR+ T790M Negative Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, High Grade Neuroendocrine Tumors and Resistant/Refractory Ovarian Cancer Prior to Re-administration of Platinum Based Doublet Regimens), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
This case report describes the clinical course of a heavily pretreated patient enrolled on the Phase II QUADRUPLE THREAT clinical trial (NCT02489903) with recurrent metastatic epithelial ovarian cancer that was previously treated with a platinum doublet and that benefited from another reintroduction of a platinum doublet after a brief priming period with RRx-001. Platinum-taxane combination is the initial treatment of choice in ovarian cancer and the "go-to regimen" for patients with recurrent, platinum-sensitive disease. However, platinum resistance is an inevitable and uniformly fatal development. One of the "Holy Grails" in ovarian cancer, besides early detection, is to reverse this resistance and retreat with a platinum doublet regimen. Because of the correlation between therapeutic resistance and poor clinical outcomes, this case, which potentially demonstrates a new avenue of anticancer development in epithelial ovarian cancer provided it is repeatable with other ovarian patients, was felt to merit a report.
