Metabolic response after 68Ga-PSMA-PET/CT-directed IGRT/SBRT for oligometastases prostate cancer.
Article in Clinical & translational oncology : official publication of the Federation of Spanish Oncology Societies and of the National Cancer Institute of Mexico, 2023. 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 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundWe used 68Ga PSMA PET/CT in the current investigation to assess the metabolic response and local control of metastasis in patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer receiving SBRT. MATERIALS AND PROCEDURES: We performed a retrospective evaluation of the medical data of all patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer who underwent stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) between 2017 and 2021. Our analysis only included medical records of patients who had SBRT for oligometastatic prostate cancer and had pre and post-SBRT 68Ga PSMA PET/CT images. Patient-related (age), disease-related (Gleason score, location of metastases), and treatment-related (factors and outcomes) data were collected from the medical files.
resultsA total of 17 patients (28 lesions) with a median age of 69 years were included in the research. A median follow-up of 16.6 months was used (range 6-36 months). The median follow-up period for 68 Ga PSMA PET/CT was 8 months (the range was 5-24 months). The median pre-treatment PSA level was 1.7 ng/mL (range 0.39-18.3 ng/mL) compared to the post-treatment PSA nadir of 0.05 ng/mL (0.02-4.57). During the follow-up period, local control was 96%, and there was a link between PSMA avidity on PET. In the treated lesions, there were no recurrences. During follow-up, none of the patients experienced toxicities of grade 3 or above.
conclusionsSBRT is a highly successful and safe way of treating patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer. Additional research is needed to examine 68Ga PSMA PET/CT to assess further for demarcation and follow-up.
