Germline genome-wide association studies in women receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab.
Trial report in Pharmacogenetics and genomics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for breast cancer is widely utilized, and we performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to determine whether germ-line genetic variability was associated with benefit in terms of pathological complete response (pCR), disease-free survival, and overall survival in patients entered on the NSABP B-40 NAC trial, wherein patients were randomized to receive, or not, bevacizumab in addition to chemotherapy. Patient DNA samples were genotyped with the Illumina OmniExpress BeadChip. Replication was attempted with genotyping data from 1398 HER2-negative patients entered on the GeparQuinto NAC study in which patients were also randomized to receive, or not, bevacizumab in addition to chemotherapy. A total of 920 women from B-40 were analyzed, and 237 patients achieved a pCR. GWAS with three phenotypes (pCR, disease-free survival, overall survival) revealed no single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that were genome-wide significant (i.e. P≤5E-08) signals; P values for top SNPs were 2.04E-07, 5.61E-08, and 5.63E-08, respectively, and these SNPs were not significant in the GeparQuinto data. An ad-hoc GWAS was performed in the patients randomized to bevacizumab (457 patients with 128 pCR) who showed signals on chromosome 6, located within a gene, CDKAL1, that approached, but did not reach, genome-wide significance (top SNP rs7453577, P=2.97E-07). However, this finding was significant when tested in the GeparQuinto data set (P=0.04). In conclusion, we identified no SNPs significantly associated with NAC. The observation, in a hypothesis-generating GWAS, of an SNP in CDKAL1 associated with pCR in the bevacizumab arm of both B-40 and GeparQuinto requires further validation and study.
