Incidence, predictors, and outcomes of febrile neutropenia and neutropenia in patients with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer receiving docetaxel.

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
purposeThe incidence of febrile neutropenia (FN) in adults with castrate-resistant metastatic prostate cancer (mCRPC) receiving docetaxel in real-world settings has not been well studied since the expanded role of hormonal treatments. The study objective was to determine the incidence of FN and neutropenia among adults with mCRPC receiving docetaxel. Secondary objectives were to quantify outcomes of patients who develop FN and to identify predictors for FN in this population.
methodsA single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted which included adults with mCRPC receiving docetaxel at the Ottawa Hospital over a 5-year period. Charts were reviewed to collect clinical data to determine the incidence of FN and neutropenia. A multiple logistic regression was used to identify predictors of FN.
resultsIn patients receiving docetaxel for mCRPC, the incidence of FN and neutropenia was 34/137 (25%) and 45/137 (33%), respectively. Among 34 patients who developed FN, 94% required hospitalization for FN for a mean of 5 days (± 2.8) and 6% died. Following FN, 53% required at least 1 treatment delay and 71% had at least 1 dose reduction. Age category (OR 2.025, 95% CI 1.13-3.627) and presence of multiple comorbidities (OR 1.466, 95% CI 1.01-2.258) increased the risk of FN.
conclusionThe incidence of FN and neutropenia in the clinical setting in patients receiving docetaxel for mCRPC is higher than previously reported and high enough to consider primary prophylaxis with granulocyte colony stimulating factors in high-risk groups. Age and multiple comorbidities were identified as risk factors.
