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

backgroundThe present study analyzed the relationship between clinical features and the T790M mutation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients resistant to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) treatment.

methodsNSCLC patients with resistance to first-generation EGFR-TKIs in which the disease control time was more than 6 months after initial TKI treatment were enrolled. T790M mutation analysis was performed using one of the following methods according to each manufacturer's protocols: Cobas EGFR mutation test (41/105, 39.0%), digital PCR (42/105, 40.0%) or Scorpion amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) (22/105, 21.0%). Sample type of T790M was from tissue only (53/105, 50.5%), plasma only (46/105, 43.8%), tissue and plasma (6/105, 5.7%).

resultsOf 105 patients, 57 were T790M-positive and 48 were T790M-negative. T790M-positive patients had longer progression-free survival (PFS) after initial EGFR-TKI treatment (p = 0.019). T790M positivity was more frequent in patients treated with gefitinib than in those treated with icotinib (65% vs 40.54%, p = 0.018). The rate of T790M positivity was lower in patients with EGFR L858R (44.44%, 12/27) before TKI treatment than in those with EGFR 19del (72.0%, 36/50, p = 0.036). Patients who achieved PR after initial EGFR-TKI treatment had a higher rate of T790M positivity than those with SD (75.76% vs 50%, p = 0.023). There was no relationship between T790M status and age, gender, primary site, metastasis site, or treatment before TKI.

conclusionProgression-free survival (PFS), drug type, response to initial EGFR-TKI treatment, and EGFR status before initial EGFR treatment were associated with the frequency of T790M mutation.
