Article in Frontiers in molecular biosciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05372081 (Clinical and Molecular Study With Digital Support of Patients With Inoperable Lung Cancer), which is not on this map. Cited by 14 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

Identification of somatic molecular alterations in primary and metastatic solid tumor specimens can provide critical information regarding tumor biology and its heterogeneity, and enables the detection of molecular markers for clinical personalized treatment assignment. However, the optimal methods and target genes for clinical use are still being in development. Toward this end, we validated a targeted amplification-based NGS panel (Oncomine comprehensive assay v1) on a personal genome machine sequencer for molecular profiling of solid tumors. This panel covers 143 genes, and requires low amounts of DNA (20 ng) and RNA (10 ng). We used 27 FFPE tissue specimens, 10 cell lines, and 24 commercial reference materials to evaluate the performance characteristics of this assay. We also evaluated the performance of the assay on 26 OCT-embedded fresh frozen specimens (OEFF). The assay was found to be highly specific (>99%) and sensitive (>99%), with low false-positive and false-negative rates for single-nucleotide variants, indels, copy number alterations, and gene fusions. Our results indicate that this is a reliable method to determine molecular alterations in both fixed and fresh frozen solid tumor samples, including core needle biopsies.
