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

Introduction: Advanced mixed epithelial endometrial carcinomas are rare high-grade cancers with a poor prognosis. A clear cell component infers relative chemotherapy insensitivity, likely further increased by p53 wild type status and MMR deficiency. PD-1 inhibition for MMR deficient endometrial cancers has been recently added to first-line adjuvant treatment in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy. Information on de-escalation of adjuvant treatment to PD-1 inhibition alone without chemotherapy is sparse. Case Presentation: Here, we present a patient with advanced stage mixed epithelial endometrial carcinoma, a clear cell component and MMR deficiency who underwent de-escalated adjuvant treatment with PD-1 inhibition alone without simultaneous chemotherapy. Conclusion: Histotype-agnostic adjuvant monotherapy with checkpoint immune inhibitors alone appears to be a highly effective even in the rare mixed endometrial carcinomas if MMR protein deficient as described in this case report.
