A case of repeat oligoprogressive castration-resistant prostate cancer treated with pulmonary metastasectomy.

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
Introduction: Several retrospective studies have demonstrated the efficacy of progressive site-directed therapy for oligoprogressive castration-resistant prostate cancer. However, eligible patients for progressive site-directed therapy in these studies were limited to oligoprogressive castration-resistant prostate cancer with bone or lymph node metastases without visceral metastases, and little is known about the efficacy of progressive site-directed therapy for oligoprogressive castration-resistant prostate cancer with visceral metastases. Case presentation: We report a case with castration-resistant prostate cancer previously treated with enzalutamide and docetaxel, in which only a solitary lung metastasis was identified throughout the course of treatment. The patient underwent thoracoscopic pulmonary metastasectomy with a diagnosis of repeat oligoprogressive castration-resistant prostate cancer. Only androgen deprivation therapy was continued and his prostate-specific antigen levels remained undetectable for 9 months after surgery. Conclusion: Our case suggests that progressive site-directed therapy may be effective for carefully selected repeat OP-CRPC with a lung metastasis.
