PIK3CA-CDKN2A clonal evolution in metastatic breast cancer and multiple points cell-free DNA analysis.
Article in Cancer cell international, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundDaily experience tells us that breast cancer can be controlled using standard protocols up to the advent of a relapse. Now new frontiers in precision medicine like liquid biopsy of cell free DNA (cfDNA) give us the possibility to understand cancer evolution and pick up the key mutation on specific cancer driver gene. However, tight schedule of standardized protocol may impair the use of personalized experimental drugs in a timely therapeutic window. MAIN BODY: Here, using a combination of deep next generation sequencing and cfDNA liquid biopsy, we demonstrated that it is possible to monitor cancer relapse over time. We showed for the first time the exact correspondence from the increasing clonal expansion and clinical worsening of metastatic breast cancer.
conclusionThanks to liquid biopsy may be possible to introduce new experimental drugs in the correct therapeutic window which would lead in the near future to an effective treatment which otherwise remains challenging.
