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

backgroundDoublet or triplet chemotherapy plus or minus targeted drugs can achieve a high objective response rate (ORR) and are currently considered to be the backbone of conventional therapy for liver metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). However, current biomarkers (such as UGT1A1 and DPYD) are limited to the prediction of toxicity and there are no effective biomarkers to predict chemotherapy response. Therefore, personalized cancer chemotherapy underpinned by genomic alterations in mCRC has received increasing attention. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of a 28-year-old female rectal cancer patient with multiple liver metastases (clinical risk score, CRS = 5 points). The patient underwent XELOXIRI plus bevacizumab regimen that consisted of irinotecan (150 mg/m2), oxaliplatin (100 mg/m2) on day 1, capecitabine (1700 mg/m2 per day from day 2 to 15), bevacizumab (7.5 mg/kg) on day 1 (on the second cycle), given every three weeks for eight cycles. After multi-disciplinary team (MDT) discussion, the patient underwent right hemihepatectomy, partial liver resection of segment IV and cholecystectomy. Surprisingly, the patient achieved a complete pathologic response (pCR) of the hepatic metastasis and clinical complete response (cCR) of the primary rectal lesion. A paired tumor molecular profile revealed somatic mutations in ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) genes that may explain why the patient achieved such a dramatic tumor response. Treatment was discontinued after eight cycles of a single oral dose of capecitabine and the patient started a follow-up program of physical and radiological examinations. To monitor the signs of recurrence, we also obtained blood samples to analyze circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). To date, the patient has remained disease-free.

conclusionThe XELOXIRI-bevacizumab regimen is a feasible and effective regimen for patients with mCRC. Mutations in the ATM genes may characterize a subset of patients with a better prognosis who are more sensitive to chemotherapy plus biological agents.
