RAD51/geminin/γH2AX immunohistochemical expression predicts platinum-based chemotherapy response in ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma.

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
objectiveThe RAD51 assay is a recently developed functional assay for homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) that reflects real-time HRD status. We aimed to identify the applicability and predictive value of RAD51 immunohistochemical expression in pre- and post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) samples of ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC).
methodsWe evaluated the immunohistochemical expression of RAD51/geminin/γH2AX in ovarian HGSC before and after NAC.
resultsIn pre-NAC tumors (n=51), 74.5% (39/51) showed at least 25% of γH2AX-positive tumor cells, suggesting endogenous DNA damage. The RAD51-high group (41.0%, 16/39) showed significantly worse progression-free survival (PFS) compared to the RAD51-low group (51.3%, 20/39) (p
conclusionHigh RAD51 expression was significantly associated with worse PFS in HGSC, and post-NAC RAD51 status showed higher association than pre-NAC RAD51 status. Moreover, RAD51 status can be evaluated in a significant proportion of treatment-naïve HGSC samples. As RAD51 status dynamically changes, sequential follow-up of RAD51 status might reflect the biological behavior of HGSCs.
