A Rare Pathological Phenotype of Endometrioid Serous and Clear-Cell Ovarian Cancer with PIK3CA Mutations in Relation to The Excellent Response of Alpelisib.

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
Patients with metastatic ovarian cancer who develop resistance to standard therapy with or without platinum need to search for other therapeutic choices. Therefore, identifying genetic alterations and selecting an approach to treatment using precision medicine techniques are important. In a patient diagnosed with mixed-type ovarian cancer after surgery, adjuvant therapy was applied with a combination of carboplatin and taxane, but the disease recurred. Upon evaluation of the patient as having platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), combination therapy with bevacizumab was initially successful. However, disease progression was again observed, and molecular analysis revealed the presence of an E545K mutation in the PIK3CA gene; therefore, a selective PI3K inhibitor, alpelisib, was used as a treatment under the compassionate-use protocol. The patient's complications improved after receiving the alpelisib medication. The patient has been in complete remission for over two years. This case serves as a rare example that confirms the utility of alpelisib in managing mixed-type ovarian cancer.
