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

Background: The present study assessed clinical outcomes of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in oligometastatic prostate cancer patients. Materials and methods: Between 2017 and 2020, 37 lesions (12 osseous and 25 nodal targets) detected with conventional and/or functional imaging, were treated in 29 patients (pts), in different clinical settings: de novo oligometastatic (2 pts), oligorecurrent castration-sensitive (19 pts), castration-resistant (6 pts) prostate cancers and oligoprogressive disease during systemic therapy (2 pts). SBRT was delivered with volumetric modulated arc therapy up to a total dose of 21 Gy given in 3 fractions for bone and 30 Gy in 5 fractions for nodal metastases. A total of 34% of pts received hormonal therapy. We evaluated biochemical control [prostate serum antigen (PSA) increase < 10%)], progression free-survival (PFS) (time from SBRT to biochemical progression), local control (LC) (time from SBRT to in-field radiologic progression), hormone/systemic therapy-free survival, acute and late toxicities. Results: At 3 months, biochemical response was observed in 20/29 pts (69%). At a median follow-up of 17 months (range 6-33), 8/20 (40%) of the 3-month responders remained free from progression. Two-year PFS and LC were 37% and 70%, respectively. In-field progression occurred in 3/37 (8%) lesions. Hormone/systemic therapy was delayed by an average of 11.6 months (range 3-28). No significant difference in PFS based on the type of lesion or concomitant endocrine therapy was observed and no toxicity > grade 2 was reported. Conclusions: SBRT for oligometastatic prostate cancer offers a good biochemical/local control and tangible delay of hormone/systemic therapy without major toxicities.
