Targeted Approaches to Treatment of Pleural Mesothelioma: A Review.
Review in JCO precision oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Pleural mesothelioma is an aggressive disease that is enriched for inactivating alterations in tumor suppressor genes. Systemic therapeutic strategies for pleural mesothelioma generally involve chemotherapies and immunotherapies that are chosen without consideration of the tumor's molecular profile. As this generalized approach to treatment rarely yields durable responses, alternative therapeutic regimens are urgently indicated. Preclinical studies have identified synthetic lethal protein and metabolic interactions, recurrently overexpressed proteins, and frequent pathway perturbations that may be therapeutically exploited in mesothelioma. This review discusses the mechanism of action of emerging investigational therapies and summarizes findings from phase I-II clinical trials exploring selective, biomarker-driven therapeutic strategies for mesothelioma, with a focus on five common targets. Finally, using lessons learned from these clinical trials, imperatives for successful implementation of targeted therapy in mesothelioma are discussed.
