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

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common subtype of lung cancer, of which approximate 4% had BRAF activation, with an option for targeted therapy. BRAF activation comprises of V600 and non-V600 mutations, fusion, rearrangement, in-frame deletions, insertions, and co-mutations. In addition, BRAF primary activation and secondary activation presents with different biological phenotypes, medical senses and subsequent treatments. BRAF primary activation plays a critical role in proliferation and metastasis as a driver gene of NSCLC, while secondary activation mediates acquired resistance to other targeted therapy, especially for epidermal growth factor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI). Treatment options for different activation of BRAF are diverse. Targeted therapy, especially two-drug combination therapy, is an important option. Besides, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) would be another option since BRAF activation would be a positive biomarker of tumor response of ICIs therapy. To date, no high level evidences support targeted therapy or immunotherapy as prioritized recommendation. After targeted therapy, the evolution of BRAF includes the activation of the upstream, downstream and bypass pathways of BRAF. In this review, therapeutic modalities and post-therapeutic evolutionary pathways of BRAF are discussed, and future research directions are also provided.
