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

purposeAlthough docetaxel and ARSI are picked up as treatment options against chemo-naïve metastatic CRPC in clinical guidelines for prostate cancer, there is no clear evidence which agent should be introduced as first line treatment. Therefore, we investigated our CRPC cohort treated with docetaxel or ARSI as first-line agent against chemo-naïve CRPC to solve these clinical questions. PATIENTS AND

methodsA total of 345 chemotherapy-naïve CRPC patients introduced to first-line docetaxel or ARSI (abiraterone or enzalutamide) between March 2006 and April 2017 at Jikei University Hospital and its affiliated institutions were included in this study. Propensity score matching method was used to minimize the patients' background. The outcome measures were PSA response rate, PSA decline ≥ 90%, cancer specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS).

resultsPSA decline correlated OS and CSS (p = 0.027, < 0.001, respectively) and median PSA decline rate was 60.4% in docetaxel group and 85.7% in ARSI group (p = 0.0311). Median OS was 33 m (95%CI: 27-53) in docetaxel group and 61 m (95%CI: 47-NA) in ARSI group (p = 0.0246). Median CSS was 34 m (95%CI: 27-53) in docetaxel group and NR (not reached) (95%CI: 61-NA) in ARSI group (p = 0.000133) in propensity score matching cohort. In multivariate analysis, ARSI induction first showed significantly better for OS and CSS (p = 0.0033 and < 0.001, respectively).

conclusionIn this study, better survival outcome with ARSI induction first than docetaxel against chemo-naïve CRPC. And the candidates who had survival benefit by induction docetaxel first could not be found in this study.
