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

Background: The aim was to assess therapeutic outcomes and tolerance in patients with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) treated with androgen receptor targeted agents (ARTA) treatment at one oncological center in the Czech Republic. Materials and methods: Retrospective analysis of 64 patients with mCRPC treated with abiraterone (50 patients) and enzalutamide (14 patients) in the first line of this disease was conducted. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). We performed a multivariate analysis of risk factors for treatment outcomes (PFS, OS) by Cox regression analysis. Results: The median follow-up was 28.4 months. The median PFS was 15.4 months [95% confidence interval (CI): 12.3-18.5], median OS was 38.2 months (95% CI: 19.9-56.5). Regression analysis demonstrated a favorable prognostic effect on PFS in patients with reduction of PSA ≥ 50 %, in patients with early reduction of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ≥ 50% within 3 months, in patients younger than 74 years and in overall performance status (PS) 0. Regression analysis demonstrated a favorable prognostic effect on OS in patients with reduction of PSA ≥ 50 %, in patients with early reduction of PSA ≥ 50 % within 3 months and in patients with overall PS 0. Adverse effects grade 3-4 were reported in 17 (27.9%) patients in abirateron arm and in 1 (7.1%) patient in enzalutamide arm. Conclusion: The analysis of patients with mCRPC treated with ARTA in the first line showed that ARTA represents an effective and safe therapy and contributes to longer survival.
