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

Hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder that results from a germline mutation in the fumarate hydratase gene (FH). Individuals with FH mutations are at risk of developing renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Patients with HLRCC-associated RCC (HLRCC-RCC) have aggressive clinical courses, but there is as yet no standardized therapy for advanced HLRCC-RCC. We report an aggressive RCC case in a 49-year-old man. Nine weeks after undergoing a total nephroureterectomy of the right kidney, he had a metastasectomy at port site. Within 14 weeks of the initial surgery, multiple recurrent tumors developed in the right retroperitoneal space. The pathological diagnosis was FH-deficient RCC. Genetic testing identified a heterozygous germline mutation of FH (c.641_642delTA), which confirmed the diagnosis of HLRCC-RCC. He received combination therapy with the immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) nivolumab and ipilimumab as the first-line therapy. After 31 weeks of ICI treatment, a complete response was achieved. The disease-free condition has been prolonged for 24 months since the initial surgical treatment. This is the first case report of successful treatment of HLRCC-RCC with nivolumab plus ipilimumab. This combination immunotherapy is expected to be an effective approach to treat patients with advanced-stage HLRCC-RCC.
