Effect of high-dose polymeric nanoparticle micellar paclitaxel on improved progression-free survival in patients with optimally resected stage III or IV high-grade carcinoma of the ovary: a prospective cohort study with historical controls.

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
Introduction: We evaluated the effect of high-dose polymeric nanoparticle micellar paclitaxel (PM-Pac) on survival in patients with stage III-IV high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) who underwent upfront surgery. Methods: We prospectively recruited the patients who received PM-Pac (280 mg/m Results: A total of 128 patients were divided into cohorts 1 (n=49, 38.3%), 2 (n=53, 41.4%), and 3 (n=26, 20.3%). Cohort 1 showed better progression-free survival (PFS) than cohort 2 in all patients and those treated with optimal debulking surgery (ODS; median, 35.5 vs. 28.1 and 35.5 vs. 28.9 months; p ≤ 0.01) despite no difference in PFS between cohorts 1 and 3 and between cohorts 2 and 3. In particular, stage III disease was a favorable factor for PFS, whereas cohort 2 was related to worse PFS (adjusted hazard ratios, 0.456 and 1.834; 95% confidence interval, 0.263 - 0.790 and 1.061 - 3.171), showing no difference in PFS between cohorts 1 and 3 in those treated with ODS. Conclusion: High-dose PM-Pac improved PFS compared to conventional chemotherapy, and the change of paclitaxel to PM-Pac had as much effect on PFS as the addition of bevacizumab in patients with stage III-IV HGSC who underwent ODS.
