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

Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumor and are uniformly lethal. Despite significant advancements in understanding the genetic landscape of gliomas, standard-of-care has remained largely unchanged. Subsets of gliomas are defined by gain-of-function mutations in the metabolic genes encoding isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH). Efforts to exploit mutant IDH activity and/or directly inhibit it with mutant IDH inhibitors have been the focus of over a decade of research. The recently published INDIGO trial, demonstrating the benefit of the mutant IDH inhibitor vorasidenib in patients with low-grade IDH-mutant gliomas, introduces a new era of precision medicine in brain tumors that is poised to change standard-of-care. In this review, we highlight and contextualize the results of the INDIGO trial and introduce key questions whose answers will guide how mutant IDH inhibitors may be used in the clinic. We discuss possible combination therapies with mutant IDH inhibition and future directions for clinical and translational research.
