Complete remission following pembrolizumab in a man with mCRPC with both microsatellite instability and BRCA2 mutation.

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
Prostate cancer is one of the most prevalent malignancies in men. In the United States, 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Specifically, studies have delved into male subgroups that present a heightened risk for prostate cancer. Despite such high prevalence, prostate cancer can be heterogeneous and carry complexities that manifest differently between individuals. Metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) often has an abbreviated, aggressive disease course, and can have varying presentations with different molecular profiles that determine response/resistance to the approved treatments targeting the androgen-receptor pathway (eg, enzalutamide, apalutamide, darolutamide, and abiraterone acetate). We present a case of mHSPC quickly progressing to mCRPC, found to have microsatellite instability in mCRPC and excellent response to pembrolizumab, which raises the critical issues of early molecular testing and treatments personalized for the individual patient.
