A randomized controlled trial comparing perioperative vs. postoperative mFOLFOX6 for lower rectal cancer with suspected lateral pelvic lymph node metastasis (JCOG1310): a phase II/III randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Japanese journal of clinical oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
objectiveThe optimal perioperative chemotherapy for lower rectal cancer with lateral pelvic lymph node metastasis remains unclear. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of perioperative mFOLFOX6 in comparison with postoperative mFOLFOX6 for rectal cancer patients undergoing total mesorectal excision with lateral lymph node dissection.
methodsWe conducted an open label randomized phase II/III trial in 18 Japanese institutions. We enrolled patients with histologically proven lower rectal adenocarcinoma with clinical pelvic lateral lymph node metastasis who were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive postoperative mFOLFOX6 (12 courses of intravenous oxaliplatin [85 mg/m2] with L-leucovorin [200 mg/m2] followed by 5-fluorouracil [400 mg/m2, bolus and 2400 mg/m2, continuous infusion, repeated every 2 weeks]) or perioperative mFOLFOX6 (six courses each preoperatively and postoperatively). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). The trial is registered with Japan Registry of Clinical Trials, number jRCTs031180230.
resultsBetween May 2015, and May 2019, 48 patients were randomized to the postoperative arm (n = 26) and the perioperative arm (n = 22). The trial was terminated prematurely due to poor accrual. The 3-year OS in the postoperative and perioperative groups were 66.1 and 84.4%, respectively (HR 0.58, 95% CI [0.14-2.45], one-sided P = 0.23). The pathological complete response rate in the perioperative group was 9.1%. Grade 3 postoperative surgical complications were more frequently observed in the perioperative arm (50.0 vs. 12.0%). One treatment-related death due to sepsis from pelvic infection occurred in the postoperative group.
conclusionsPerioperative mFOLFOX6 may be an insufficient treatment to improve survival of lower rectal cancer with lateral pelvic lymph node metastasis.
