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: Genomic variant testing of tumors is a critical gateway for patients to access the full potential of personalized oncology therapeutics. Current methods such as next-generation sequencing are costly and challenging to interpret, while PCR assays are limited in the number of variants they can cover. We developed ASPYRE Methods: We tested the limit of detection, specificity, analytical accuracy and analytical precision of ASPYRE-Lung using FFPE lung tissue samples from patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma, variant-negative FFPE tissue from healthy donors, and FFPE-based contrived samples with controllable variant allele fractions. Results: The sensitivity of ASPYRE-Lung was determined to be ≤ 3% variant allele fraction for single nucleotide variants and insertions or deletions, 100 copies for fusions, and 200 copies for Conclusions: The technology is simple and fast, requiring only four reagent transfer steps using standard laboratory equipment (PCR and qPCR instruments) with analysis via a cloud-based algorithm. The ASPYRE-Lung assay has the potential to be transformative in facilitating access to rapid, actionable molecular profiling of tissue for patients with non-small cell carcinoma.
