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

The most frequent mechanism of resistance after 1st/2nd-generation (G) epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is secondary point mutation Thr790Met (T790M) in EGFR. Afatinib followed by osimertinib (Afa group) may provide better outcomes for T790M-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) than 1st-G EGFR-TKI followed by osimertinib (1st-G group). We studied 111 consecutive NSCLC patients with T790M mutation treated with osimertinib after progression following 1st/2nd-G EGFR-TKI between March 28, 2016 and March 31, 2018. We analyzed the ratio of T790M to EGFR-activating mutation (T790M ratio) in post EGFR-TKI resistance re-biopsy tissue using droplet digital polymerase chain reaction. And investigated whether afatinib purified the T790M mutation more than 1st-G EGFR-TKI. Among 60 patients with preserved re-biopsy tissue, we analyzed 38 having adequate DNA content. The response rate in Afa group was 81.8% (n = 11) and 1st-G group was 85.2% (n = 27). The mean T790M ratio in total population was 0.3643. The ratio in those with response to osimertinib was significantly higher than in the non-responders (0.395, 0.202; p = 0.0231) and was similar in Afa and 1st-G group (0.371, 0.362; p = 0.9693). T790M ratio significantly correlated with osimertinib response and was similar between the 1st/2nd-G EGFR-TKIs in 1st/2nd-G EGFR-TKI-refractory tumors.
