MAGE-A10 Protein Expression in Advanced High Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer Is Associated with Resistance to First-Line Platinum-Based Chemotherapy.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Ovarian cancer has a dismal prognosis. Standard treatment following surgery relies on platinum-based chemotherapy. However, sizeable percentages of patients are unresponsive. Identification of markers predicting the response to chemotherapy might help select eligible patients and spare non-responding patients from treatment-associated toxicity. Cancer/testis antigens (CTAs) are expressed by healthy germ cells and malignant cells of diverse histological origin. This expression profile identifies them as attractive targets for cancer immunotherapies. We analyzed the correlations between expression of MAGE-A10 and New York esophageal-1 cancer (NY-ESO-1) CTAs at the protein level and the effectiveness of platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced-stage high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC). MAGE-A10 and NY-ESO-1 protein expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples from 93 patients with advanced-stage HGSOC treated at our institutions between January 1996 and December 2013. The correlation between the expression of these markers and response to platinum-based chemotherapy, evaluated according to RECIST 1.1 criteria and platinum sensitivity, measured as platinum-free interval (PFI), progression free (PFS), and overall survival (OS) was explored. The MAGE-A10 protein expression predicted unresponsiveness to platinum-based chemotherapy (
