The updated five-year overall survival and long-term oxaliplatin-related neurotoxicity assessment of the FACOS study.
Article in Surgery today, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeWe previously reported the first evidence of oncological benefits from a Japanese phase II trial of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with stage III colon cancer (the FACOS study). We herein report the long-term survival and persistent oxaliplatin-related peripheral sensory neuropathy (PSN) for patients enrolled in this trial.
methodsPatients were scheduled to receive the mFOLFOX6 or CAPOX regimen in the adjuvant setting. The five-year overall survival (OS) rate and persistent PSN were evaluated.
resultsA total of 130 patients (mFOLFOX6, n = 73; CAPOX, n = 57) were eligible. The 5-year OS rate was 91.4%. No significant difference in the OS rate was observed between regimens (mFOLFOX6, 94.4%; CAPOX, 87.4%; P = 0.25). The incidence of PSN during adjuvant treatment was 55.4% in grade 1 (G1), 30.0% in G2, and 4.6% in G3. No patients showed G3 PSN at 12 months, but G1 or G2 residual PSN after 5 years was observed in 21.8% (G1, 20%; G2, 1.8%).
conclusionsUpdated results from the FACOS study support the benefits of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy in terms of the long-term survival among Japanese patients with stage III colon cancer. However, long-term persistent PSN occurs in about 20% of survivors, counterbalancing the favorable OS.
