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

purposeOutcomes of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) with respect to androgen receptor signaling inhibitors (ARSI) have not been characterized for oligometastatic prostate cancer. We sought to characterize prostate specific antigen (PSA) response and progression-free survival (PFS) after SBRT among men who have progressed on ARSI therapy in the oligometastatic castration-resistant setting. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A single-institution retrospective analysis was performed for men with ARSI-resistant, oligometastatic, castrate-resistant prostate cancer (omCRPC). Intervention consisted of SBRT. PSA reduction greater than 50% and median PFS (PSA or radiographic progression) as determined by routine care comprised outcome measurements. Cox regression analysis was used to determine factors influencing PFS.

resultsThirty-five men with ARSI-resistant omCRPC and 65 lesions treated with SBRT were followed for a median of 17.2 months. In 63% of men PSA reduction greater than 50% was achieved. Median PFS was 9.0 months. Incomplete ablation (defined as the presence of untreated lesions after SBRT or receipt of prior palliative radiation therapy doses) was associated with worse PFS (hazard ratio 4.21 [1.74-10.19];

conclusionsSBRT may augment the efficacy of ARSI in omCRPC, provided that all lesions receive ablative radiation doses. Future prospective study of SBRT for men receiving ARSI is warranted.
