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 usefulness of comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) panels for thoracic malignancies after completion of the standard treatment is unclear.

methodsThe results of CGP panels for malignant thoracic diseases performed at our hospital between December 2019 and June 2022 were collected. We examined whether CGP panel results led to new treatment, correlated with the effectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), or revealed secondary findings related to hereditary tumors.

resultsA total of 60 patients were enrolled, of which 52 (86.6%) had lung cancer. In six (10%) patients, the panel results led to treatment with insurance-listed molecular-targeted agents; four patients had EGFR mutations not detected by the real-time polymerase chain reaction assay and two had MET ex.14 skipping mutations. In small-cell lung cancer, the tumor mutation burden was high in 4/6 (66.7%) patients and pembrolizumab was available. Another MET ex.14 skipping mutation was detected in two cases with EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance. ICI efficacy was ≤1 year in patients with STK-11, KEAP1, and NEF2L2 mutations. A BRCA2 mutation with a high probability of germline mutation was detected in one patient. A thymic carcinoma with no detectable oncogenic mutation responded to second-line treatment with Tegafur-Gimeracil-Oteracil Potassium (TS-1) for ≥9 years.

conclusionsCGP panels are useful in thoracic malignancies, especially lung cancer, because they can detect overlooked driver mutations and genetic alterations. We believe that the significance of conducting a CGP panel prior to treatment may also exist, as it may lead to the prediction of ICI treatment efficacy.
