Use of Radiation Therapy for Ataxia-Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM)-Mutation Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Papillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) is a rare kidney cancer with limited treatment options and poor outcomes when metastatic. We present a case of a 42-year-old male with metastatic pRCC harboring a somatic ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) mutation who was treated at our institution. After progression of disease (POD) on ipilimumab/nivolumab, followed by POD on cabozantinib, the patient was treated with radiation therapy to metastatic cervical lymphadenopathy to 60 Gy in 15 fractions as well as retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy to 36 Gy in 9 fractions, which was curtailed due to intolerance. This was followed by sequential systemic therapy with a poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor and pembrolizumab, which was also discontinued due to adverse effects. Despite not receiving any treatment for 10 months, his disease remains stable. We believe that the prolonged progression-free survival of this patient with ATM-mutation metastatic pRCC is likely due to the enhanced sensitivity of the tumor to radiation therapy due to ATM loss.
