Inflammatory response-based prognostication and personalized therapy decisions in clear cell renal cell cancer to aid precision oncology.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThe impact of inflammatory response on tumor development and therapeutic response is of significant importance in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The customization of specialized prognostication approaches and the exploration of supplementary treatment options hold critical clinical implications in relation to the inflammatory response.
methodsIn the present study, unsupervised clustering was implemented on TCGA-KIRC tumors using transcriptome profiles of inflammatory response genes, which was then validated in two ccRCC datasets (E-MATB-1980 and ICGC) and two immunotherapy datasets (IMvigor210 and Liu et al.) via SubMap and NTP algorithms. Combining co-expression and LASSO analyses, inflammatory response-based scoring system was defined, which was evaluated in pan-cancer.
resultsThree reproducible inflammatory response subtypes (named IR1, IR2 and IR3) were determined and independently verified, each exhibiting distinct molecular, clinical, and immunological characteristics. Among these subtypes, IR2 had the best OS outcomes, followed by IR3 and IR1. In terms of anti-angiogenic agents, sunitinib may be appropriate for IR1 patients, while axitinib and pazopanib may be suitable for IR2 patients, and sorafenib for IR3 patients. Additionally, IR1 patients might benefit from anti-CTLA4 therapy. A scoring system called IRscore was defined for individual ccRCC patients. Patients with high IRscore presented a lower response rate to anti-PD-L1 therapy and worse prognostic outcomes. Pan-cancer analysis demonstrated the immunological features and prognostic relevance of the IRscore.
conclusionAltogether, characterization of inflammatory response subtypes and IRscore provides a roadmap for patient risk stratification and personalized treatment decisions, not only in ccRCC, but also in pan-cancer.
