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

CGP results from >60,000 cases were screened to identify NTRK fusion events from cases of neuroendocrine tumors. 2417 NET patients from diverse anatomic sites were identified. From this dataset, six cases harbored NTRK fusions which included intra- and inter-chromosomal translocations. A NTRK fusion frequency of approximately 0.3% was found across all subtypes of NETs. Three cases involved translocations of NTRK1 with unique fusion partners (GPATCH4, PIP5K1A, CCDC19). Co-occurring alterations occurred in five cases. NTRK alterations were identified in nearly the full spectrum of NETs, including from the small intestine, pancreas, lung, and others. With the late stage clinical development of NTRK TKIs (including entrectinib and larotrectinib), these findings may further inform targeted approaches to therapy in NET.
