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

backgroundBiliary tract cancer (BTC) comprises a heterogeneous group of malignancies with poor prognosis because of the limited treatment options. With the recent advances of next generation sequencing technologies, comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) tests have been widely introduced into daily clinical practice. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe performed a retrospective, multicenter, observation cohort study. The genomic and clinical data of 85 BTC patients, who underwent CGP testing from August 2021 to September 2023, were analyzed.

resultsThere were 62 (73%) cases in which treatment recommendations were raised during expert meetings, including 34 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), 20 extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC) and 8 gall bladder carcinoma (GBC). The drug accessibility rate of the BTC patients was 15.3% (13 cases): ten ICCs, two ECCs, and one GBC. Five ICC patients (three male and two female) with the FGFR2 fusion gene were treated with pemigatinib. Those patients who received a genomically matched therapy had significantly longer median overall survival than those patients who not received. (n = 13; not reached [95% CI not reached-not reached] vs n = 72; 8.6 months [95% CI 6.6-10.0]; hazard ratio 0.24 [95% CI 0.12-0.49], p = 0.013). The median observation period of pemigatinib treatment was 15.4 months (range 10.1-27.4). The responses were classified as PR in three patients, SD in one patient and PD in one patient. The median progression free survival is 9.0 months. No patient had grade 3/4 AEs requiring discontinuation of the treatment.

conclusionThe drug accessibility rate of ICC is high and pemigatinib is effective and well-tolerated in ICC patients harboring FGFR2 gene fusions.
