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

In the CodeBreaK 100 phase 2 study, sotorasib was active for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homologue (KRAS) p.G12C mutation. However, patients with untreated and/or active brain metastases were excluded from the trial, and the activity of sotorasib in the setting of brain metastases should be further investigated. Here we report the case of a KRAS p.G12C mutant NSCLC patient with three brain metastases, of whom one was untreated and the other two had progressed after radiotherapy with symptoms requiring steroids, that responded to sotorasib. Our report suggests that sotorasib may be active against untreated or progressive brain metastases, supporting further evaluation of sotorasib in this setting.
