Prognostic Implications of Small Cell Lung Cancer Transcriptional Subtyping for CNS Metastases.
Article in JCO precision oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeSmall cell lung cancer (SCLC) often metastasizes to the brain and has poor prognosis. SCLC subtypes distinguished by expressing transcriptional factors ASCL1 or NEUROD1 have been identified. This study investigates the impact of transcription factor-defined SCLC subtype on incidence and outcomes of brain metastases (BMs).
methodsPatients with SCLC with ASCL1 (A) and NEUROD1 (N) immunohistochemical expression status were identified and classified: (1) A+/N-, (2) A+/N+, (3) A-/N+, and (4) A-/N-. Cumulative incidence competing risk analyses were used to assess incidence of CNS progression. Cox proportional hazards models were used for multivariable analyses of overall survival (OS) and CNS progression-free survival (CNS-PFS).
resultsOf 164 patients, most were either A+/N- or A+/N+ (n = 62, n = 63, respectively). BMs were present at diagnosis in 24 patients (15%). Among them, the 12-month cumulative incidence of subsequent CNS progression was numerically highest for A+/N- (50% [95% CI, 10.5 to 74.7];
conclusionTo our knowledge, this report is the first to investigate CNS-specific outcomes based on transcription factor subtypes in patients with SCLC. BM-free patients at diagnosis with A+/N- or A-/N+ subtypes had worse outcomes compared with those with transcriptional factor coexpression. Further investigation into the mechanisms and implications of SCLC subtyping on CNS-specific outcomes is warranted to ultimately guide personalized care.
