EGFR mutation impacts recurrence in high-risk early-stage lung adenocarcinoma in the IASLC grading system.

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
introductionThe developments of perioperative treatments for patients with high-risk early-stage lung cancer are ongoing, however, real-world data and evidence of clinical significance of genetic aberration are lacking in this population. This study aimed to identify patients with early-stage lung adenocarcinoma at high risk for recurrence based on pathological indicators of poor prognosis, including the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) grade, and elucidate the prognostic impact of epidermal growth factor receptor mutation (EGFRm) status.
methodsThis retrospective study included 494 consecutive patients who underwent complete resection for pathological stage I lung adenocarcinoma between 2011 and 2016. The patients were evaluated for EGFRm and IASLC grade. Multivariable analysis was used to identify pathological factors for poor prognosis associated with recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). Patients with any one of these factors were classified into the high-risk group. The prognostic impact of EGFRm was evaluated using RFS, OS, and cumulative recurrence proportion.
resultsMultivariable analysis for RFS and OS revealed that IASLC grade 3, pathological invasion size>2 cm, and presence of lymphovascular invasion were indicators of poor prognosis. EGFRm-positive patients had a higher incidence of all types of recurrence, including central nervous system (CNS) metastasis and distant metastasis in high-risk group, but not in low-risk group.
conclusionsThis study provides evidence that patients with EGFRm-positive stage I lung adenocarcinoma in the high-risk group have an increased risk of recurrence, including CNS metastasis. These findings highlight the need for development of adjuvant treatment in this population.
