AKR1C3-negative high-risk metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer has long-term response to first-line treatment with abiraterone: Four case reports.

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
We experienced four cases of high-risk metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) in which first-line treatment with abiraterone showed a sustained long-term response of over 5 years. We conducted immunohistochemical staining of aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C3 (AKR1C3) expression, which associate with poor prognosis of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), and all prostate cancer tissue from four cases showed negative. These results suggested that AKR1C3-negative high-risk mCSPC cases may respond well to first-line treatment with abiraterone. This is the first report describing association of high-risk mCSPC and negative AKR1C3.
