1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Advanced prostate cancer (PCa) is usually treated initially with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Although they experience a period of disease regression, most patients progress to metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Patients with mCRPC now have an unprecedented number of approved treatment options, including chemotherapies, hormone therapies, targeted therapies, etc. However, the improvement of overall survival (OS) in patients with mCRPC and its special subtype neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) is limited. In recent years, with the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), such as PD1/PDL1 and CTLA4 inhibitors, immunotherapy has once again become a promising treatment choice to stimulate antitumor immunity. However, the efficacy of NEPC receiving ICI has not been reported. Here, we describe a patient with mCRPC who developed primary resistance to current endocrine and chemotherapy regimens and progressed to mCRPC with NEPC as the main component, showing a significant and lasting response to PD1 monoclonal antibody combined with radiotherapy.
