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

Introduction: In Japan, adjuvant tegafur-uracil (UFT) chemotherapy is recommended for patients with completely resected, stage I NSCLC. This treatment requires real-world re-evaluation because of recent advances in target-based and immuno-oncological treatments and refinement of lung cancer staging. Methods: The Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) 0707, a phase 3 trial comparing the benefits of UFT and S-1 (tegafur-gimeracil-oteracil) in patients with completely resected stage I NSCLC (T1 >2 cm and T2 in the TNM sixth edition), was conducted in Japan. A multicenter observational cohort study (Comprehensive Support Project for Oncology Research [CSPOR]-LC03) was also conducted for those patients excluded from JCOG 0707 during the study enrollment period. Physicians from institutions that participated in JCOG 0707 retrospectively assessed the medical records of each patient. The efficacy of UFT was evaluated in the CSPOR-LC03 cohort. Results: In the entire study population (n = 5005), patients treated with UFT (n = 1549) had significantly longer overall survival (OS) than those without any adjuvant chemotherapy (n = 3338). There was no significant difference in OS between the patients treated with UFT (n = 1061) and those without adjuvant chemotherapy (n = 1484) in the JCOG 0707-eligible population (logrank Conclusions: There was no significant difference in OS between the patients treated with UFT and those without adjuvant chemotherapy in the clinical trial-eligible population. Adjuvant UFT for patients with completely resected NSCLC may be recommended only in patients with a tumor without ground-glass attenuation and size greater than 3 cm. In patients with node-negative early NSCLC, further study is needed to select patients who will benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy.
