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

backgroundThe majority of patients with newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer (PC) initially respond to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and are classified as metastatic castration-sensitive PC (mCSPC). Following months to years of ADT, the disease tends to become resistant to ADT. Recent randomized phase-III trials demonstrated a survival benefit with the addition of upfront docetaxel to ADT in mCSPC. Following its implementation in routine care, this combined treatment strategy requires more detailed evaluation in a real-world setting.

aimTo assess the real-world outcome and safety of upfront docetaxel treatment in mCSPC.

methodsA multicenter retrospective cohort study in the Southeast Health Care Region of Sweden was performed. This region includes approximately 1.1 million citizens and the oncology departments of Linköping, Jönköping, and Kalmar. All patients given upfront docetaxel for mCSPC from July 2015 until December 2017 were included. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) at 12 mo, and the secondary endpoints were PFS at 24 mo, overall survival (OS), treatment intensity, adverse events, and unplanned hospitalizations. Exploratory analyses on potential prognostic parameters were performed.

resultsNinety-four patients were eligible and formed the study cohort. PFS at 12 and 24 mo was 75% (95%CI: 66-84) and 58% (46-70), respectively. OS at 12 and 24 mo was 93% (87-99) and 86% (76-96). A total of 91% of patients (

conclusionResults from this study support the implementation of upfront docetaxel plus ADT as part of the standard of care treatment strategy in mCSPC.
