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

Androgen receptor splice variant-7 (AR-V7) expression in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is associated with abiraterone and enzalutamide resistance. We determine whether cabazitaxel (CBZ) is equally effective in AR-V7-positive and -negative CRPC and whether AR-V7-positive patients retain CBZ sensitivity. This is the first prospective, open-label, Asian validation study of CBZ in Japanese patients with mCRPC after docetaxel (n = 48; four CBZ cycles; 2017-2020, Juntendo University Hospitals). Primary endpoint was prostate-specific antigen response rate (PSA-RR); secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), bone scan index (BSI) PSA-RR (≥ 50% decline from baseline) for CTC-/ARV7-, CTC+ /ARV7-, and CTC +/ARV7+ groups. PSA-RR ≥ - 30% was 38% (18/48) and ≥ - 50% was 26% (12/48). BSI-change rate ≥ - 30% was 19% (9/41) and ≥ - 50% was 17% (8/41). Median OS was 13.7(12.2-18.9) months. PSA decline in early CBZ treatment associated with OS (p = 0.00173). BSI decline associated with OS (p = 0.0194). PSA-RR(≥ 50%) was 43%(6/14) in CTC-/ARV7-, 19%(5/26) in CTC+ ARV7-, and 12%(1/8) in CTC+/ARV7+ ( p > 0.05). AR-V7 in CTCs at baseline not associated with OS. AR-V7 was not associated with CBZ resistance in CTCs. Reductions in BSI and PSA in early stages of CBZ treatment may predict OS.
