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

backgroundThe optimal treatment for oligometastatic prostate cancer (OMPC) is still on its way. Accumulating evidence has proven the safety and feasibility of radical prostatectomy and local or metastasis-directed radiotherapy for oligometastatic patients. The aim of this trial is to demonstrate the safety and feasibility outcomes of metastasis-directed neoadjuvant radiotherapy (naRT) and neoadjuvant androgen deprivation therapy (naADT) followed by robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for treating OMPC.

methodsThe present study will be conducted as a prospective, open-label, dose-escalation, phase I/II clinical trial. The patients with oligometastatic PCa will receive 1 month of naADT, followed by metastasis-directed radiation and abdominal or pelvic radiotherapy. Then, radical prostatectomy will be performed at intervals of 4-8 weeks after radiotherapy, and ADT will be continued for 2 years. The primary endpoints of the study are safety profiles, assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 5.0 grading scale, and perioperativemorbidities, assessed by the Clavien-Dindo classification system. The secondary endpoints include positive surgical margin (pSM), biochemical recurrence-free survival (bPFS), radiological progression-free survival (RPFS), postoperative continence, and quality of life (QoL) parameters. DISCUSSION: The optimal treatment for OMPC is still on its way, prompting investigation for novel multimodality treatment protocol for this patient population. Traditionally, radical prostatectomy has been recommended as one of the standard therapies for localized prostate cancer, but indications have expanded over the years as recommended by NCCN and EAU guidelines. RP has been carried out in some centres for OMPC patients, but its value has been inconclusive, showing elevated complication risks and limited survival benefit. Neoadjuvant radiotherapy has been proven safe and effective in colorectal cancer, breast cancer and other various types of malignant tumors, showing potential advantages in terms of reducing metastatic stem-cell activity, providing clinical downstaging, and reducing potential intraoperative risks. Existing trials have shown that naRT is well tolerated for high-risk and locally-advanced prostate cancer. In this study, we hope to further determine the optimal irradiation dose and patient tolerance for genitourinary, gastrointestinal and systemic toxicities with the design of 3+3 dose escalation; also, final pathology can be obtained following RP to further determine treatment response and follow-up treatment plans.
