Can Improved Use of Biomarkers Alter the Fate of PI3K Pathway Inhibitors in the Clinic?
Article in Cancer research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The high frequency of PI3K pathway alterations in cancer has motivated numerous efforts to develop drugs targeting this network. Although many potent and selective inhibitors have been developed and evaluated in preclinical models, their progress to clinical approval has been limited. Here we discuss the pressing need to develop improved biomarker strategies to guide patient selection and improve assessment of patient responses to PI3K pathway inhibitors to address unresolved issues surrounding the efficacy and tolerability of these compounds in patients with cancer.
