Peritoneal dissemination of ascending colon cancer demonstrating relapse-free survival for 40 months with panitumumab monotherapy: A case report.

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
introductionThe prognosis of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients receiving multiple cytotoxic agents and targeted therapies (CATT) has improved, but a complete cure by CATT is still very rare. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We report the successful treatment of ascending colon cancer complicated by peritoneal disseminations (PDs) with panitumumab (Pmab) plus mFOLFOX6 therapy. A 67-year-old male patient was diagnosed with clinical stage IV cancer of the ascending colon with PDs, and underwent ileostomy. Eighteen courses of Pmab plus mFOLFOX6 caused remarkable tumor shrinkage and the disappearance of PDs on ECT. Laparotomy revealed tumor shrinkage and scarring at the PD sites. We performed right hemicolectomy, subtotal omentectomy, and ileostomy closure as curability B surgery. Seven months later, new PDs were detected by ECT so we resumed Pmab plus mFOLFOX6 therapy. After nine courses of treatment, the target lesion had completely disappeared. After a total of 20 courses, we changed to Pmab monotherapy as maintenance therapy because there was no recurrence. Forty months after the initiation of Pmab monotherapy, there has been no oncologic progression. DISCUSSION: Pmab plus mFOLFOX6 treatment resulted in a complete response for PDs, which is extremely rare for CATT.
conclusionWe consider that Pmab therapy should be introduced for the treatment of mCRC complicated by PDs.
