To Tip or Not to Tip: A New Combination for Precision Medicine in Head and Neck Cancer.
Article in Cancer research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Meaningful advances in targeted therapy for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) have been hampered by limited availability of robust preclinical models for translational research. Using an impressive array of in vitro and in vivo preclinical HNSCC models, Smith and colleagues demonstrated the efficacy of alpelisib and tipifarnib combination therapy through sustained mTOR inhibition in PIK3CA/HRAS-dysregulated HNSCC, including preliminary evidence of robust antitumor activity in a patient enrolled in a precision medicine trial. This study in this issue of Cancer Research illustrates the value of preclinical avatars for informing biomarker-driven clinical trials to advance precision medicine in HNSCC and other cancers.
