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

introductionALK-rearranged lung adenocarcinomas with TP53 mutations have more unstable genomic features, poorer ALK-TKI efficacy and a worse prognosis than ALK-rearranged lung adenocarcinomas with wild-type TP53. Here, we examine the gene variations that co-occur with ALK/RET/ROS1 rearrangements in NSCLC and the corresponding tumor immune microenvironment, as well as their association with prognosis.

methodsA total of 155 patients with ALK/RET/ROS1 fusions were included retrospectively. Tumor genome mutation analysis was performed by next-generation sequencing. PD-L1 expression and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes were assessed by multiplex immunohistochemistry. The correlations among gene covariation, the tumor immune microenvironment, and clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed.

resultsAmong the 155 patients, concomitant TP53 mutation appeared most frequently (31%), followed by CDKN2A/B copy number loss (15%). The ALK/RET/ROS1 fusion and TP53 or CDKN2A/B covariation group had more males and patients with stage IV disease (p < 0.001, p = 0.0066). Patients with TP53 or CDKN2A/B co-occurrence had higher tumor mutation burdens and more neoantigens (p < 0.001, p = 0.0032). PD-L1 expression was higher in the tumor areas of the TP53 or CDKN2A/B co-occurring group (p = 0.00038). However, the levels of CD8

conclusionsPatients with co-occurring TP53/CDKN2A/B variations and ALK/RET/ROS1 rearrangements are associated with high TMB, more neoantigens, an immunosuppressive microenvironment and a worse prognosis.
