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

purposeSelpercatinib, a highly selective, potent RET inhibitor with CNS activity, demonstrated sustained antitumor responses and intracranial activity in patients with MATERIALS AND

methodsWe included patients with advanced NSCLC and brain metastasis with a centrally confirmed

resultsIn total, 8/26 (31%) patients were included: 1/8 (13%) had previous brain surgery but no previous systemic therapy and 3/8 (38%) had received brain radiotherapy. Best overall systemic response was partial response (PR) in 6/8 patients (75%) and stable disease (SD) in 2/8 (25%). Among patients with measurable baseline CNS lesions, 4/5 (80%) achieved a confirmed intracranial response (3/5 PRs and 1/5 complete response [CR]). The best overall intracranial response was CR in 3/8 (38%), PR in 3/8 (38%), and SD in 1/8 (13%) and nonprogressive disease/non-CR in 1/8 (13%); 2/8 patients (25%) had CNS-only disease progression. The duration of treatment was 2.8-24.0 months, and 5/8 patients (63%) had treatment ongoing at DCO. Of 8 patients, 5 (63%) had grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) requiring dose modification. There were no treatment discontinuations because of TRAEs.

conclusionSelpercatinib demonstrated clinically meaningful and durable intracranial activity in Chinese patients with brain metastases from
