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: The patterns of oligoprogression after first-line immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for metastatic NSCLC are yet to be well established. An increasing volume of data suggests that directed radiotherapy improves survival outcomes in patients with progression after ICIs. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed on patients with metastatic NSCLC who had completed first-line programmed death-(ligand) 1 inhibitor therapy with or without chemotherapy at two high-volume cancer centers. We sought to characterize the frequency and location of oligoprogression and determine the overall survival (OS) after radiotherapy in this population. Results: A total of 159 patients were included in the study. At first progression, 62 (39.0%) were classified as undergoing oligoprogression. Multivariate analysis confirmed the presence of brain metastases was associated with an increased likelihood of oligoprogression (OR = 2.44, Conclusions: In patients with oligoprogressive metastatic NSCLC after treatment with first-line ICIs, radiotherapy significantly improves OS and PFS2 outcomes. Patients with baseline brain metastases are more likely to experience oligoprogression. Further prospective studies in directed, less heterogeneous populations of patients with metastatic NSCLC will be fundamental to optimize management.
