Paradoxical Association Between Relative Cerebral Blood Volume Dynamics Following Chemoradiation and Increased Progression-Free Survival in Newly Diagnosed IDH Wild-Type MGMT Promoter Methylated Glioblastoma With Measurable Disease.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background and Purpose: While relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) may be diagnostic and prognostic for survival in glioblastoma (GBM), changes in rCBV during chemoradiation in the subset of newly diagnosed GBM with subtotal resection and the impact of MGMT promoter methylation status on survival have not been explored. This study aimed to investigate the association between rCBV response, MGMT methylation status, and progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in newly diagnosed GBM with measurable enhancing lesions. Methods: 1,153 newly diagnosed IDH wild-type GBM patients were screened and 53 patients (4.6%) had measurable post-surgical tumor (>1mL). rCBV was measured before and after patients underwent chemoradiation. Patients with a decrease in rCBV >10% were considered rCBV Responders, while patients with an increase or a decrease in rCBV <10% were considered rCBV Non-Responders. The association between change in enhancing tumor volume, change in rCBV, MGMT promotor methylation status, and PFS or OS were explored. Results: A decrease in tumor volume following chemoradiation trended towards longer OS (p=0.12; median OS=26.8 vs. 16.3 months). Paradoxically, rCBV Non-Responders had a significantly improved PFS compared to Responders (p=0.047; median PFS=9.6 vs. 7.2 months). MGMT methylated rCBV Non-Responders exhibited a significantly longer PFS compared to MGMT unmethylated rCBV Non-Responders (p<0.001; median PFS=0.5 vs. 7.1 months), and MGMT methylated rCBV Non-Responders trended towards longer PFS compared to methylated rCBV Responders (p=0.089; median PFS=20.5 vs. 13.8 months). Conclusions: This preliminary report demonstrates that in newly diagnosed IDH wild-type GBM with measurable enhancing disease after surgery (5% of patients), an enigmatic non-response in rCBV was associated with longer PFS, particularly in MGMT methylated patients.
