Pattern of care and treatment outcomes of metastatic non-clear cell kidney cancer: a single centre experience from India.

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
Background: Non-clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (nccRCC) refers to a rare diverse heterogeneous group of tumours; usually treated with immune check point inhibitors and or tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Prospective large-scale data from Asian countries is limited. Methods: This is a retrospective study of patients with metastatic nccRCC treated at Tata Medical Centre, Kolkata, India, from 2012 to 2022. Demographic profiles, histologic subtypes, treatment details, response to therapy (by response evaluation criteria in solid tumours (RECIST v1.1)) and survival status were captured from electronic medical records (EMRs) of hospitals up till May 2023. Kaplan Meier methods were estimated to assess progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: A total of 89 consecutive patients were screened for this study, 24 were excluded due to inadequate data in EMR. 65 patients were included in the final analysis, with a median age at diagnosis of 59 years (range 20-84) of which 81% were male. Histologic subtypes comprised of 43% papillary, 31% clear cell with mixed histology, 3% sarcomatoid and 23% others including chromophobe, mucinous-tubular, spindle cell, oncocytic, medullary, poorly differentiated and rhabdoid). The most common site of metastasis was the lung 62% ( Conclusion: The overall response and survival for metastatic nccRCC was relatively better in comparison with published data, despite the limited number of patients treated with ICIs due to cost and access barriers.
