Matched tissue and liquid biopsies for advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients A potentially indispensable complementary approach.
Article in Translational oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
The introduction of liquid biopsies (LB) has brought forth a number of therapeutic opportunities into the domain of thoracic oncology. Many of which have been adopted for care of patients presenting with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (aNS-NSCLC). For example, one of the most frequent indications to perform a LB in these patients, at least in Europe, is for patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting EGFR and ALK genomic alterations when the tumor progresses. A tissue biopsy (TB) must then be taken, ideally from a site of a tumor that progresses, in particular if the LB does not permit detection of a mechanism of resistance to TKI. A LB from a patient with aNS-NSCLC is recommended before first-line therapy if no tissue and/or cytological material is accessible or if the extracted nucleic acid is insufficient in amount and/or of poor quality. At present a LB and a TB are rarely performed simultaneously before treatment and/or on tumor progression. This complementary/matched testing approach is still controversial but needs to be better evaluated to determine the true benefit to care of patients. This review provides an update on the complementarity of the LB and TB method for care of patients presenting with aNS-NSCLC.
