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

introductionFive new agents have been shown to prolong survival in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, including two targeting androgen receptor signaling (abiraterone acetate plus prednisone; enzalutamide). Recognition that these tumors remain driven by androgen receptor signaling has prompted clinical evaluation of these agents at earlier states in the prostate cancer disease continuum, along with the continued development of new agents targeting this pathway. Areas covered: This article focuses on apalutamide, a next-generation nonsteroidal antiandrogen, with current literature queried in PubMed/Medline. A narrative review strategy describes studies from engineering of the compound through to a 5-year outlook. Expert commentary: In the phase III SPARTAN study, apalutamide significantly improved metastasis-free survival in patients with nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer - the first treatment approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for this indication. Phase III studies are under way to determine the clinical benefit of apalutamide in other disease states. Given the multiplicity of prostate cancer treatment options now available, there is a need to maximize individual patient benefit through the development and validation of predictive biomarkers of sensitivity to drugs that can be used in real time to determine the optimal sequence and combinations of treatments for patients in need.
