Drastic Reduction of Turnaround Time After Implementation of a Fully Automated Assay for RAS-BRAF Mutations in Colorectal Cancer: A Pilot Prospective Study in Real-life Conditions.

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
In some situations, there is a need for rapid mutation tests for guiding clinical decisions and starting targeted therapies with minimal delays. In this study we evaluated the turnaround time before and after the implementation of a fully automated multiplex assay for KRAS and NRAS/BRAF mutation tests (Idylla™ platform, Biocartis) in metastatic colorectal cancer. The objective of this project was to compare the turnaround times in 2017-2018 with the fully automated multiplex assay to the 2016 results with previous methods. Centers with a number of tests for metastatic colorectal cancer > 100 yearly and a usual turnaround time ≥ 3 weeks for mutation detection were selected. Results of 505 KRAS tests and 369 NRAS/BRAF tests were transmitted by 10 centers. The mean turnaround time from test prescription to reception of results was reduced from 25.8 days in 2016 to 4.5 days in 2017-2018. In conclusion, this pilot project shows that the Idylla™ platform for testing KRAS and NRAS/BRAF mutations allows an optimized turnaround time from test prescription to reception of results.
