Clinical outcomes in metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma treated with abiraterone and enzalutamide.
Article in Ecancermedicalscience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Aim: The management of metastatic prostate cancer has progressed immensely in the last decade. This study aims to investigate the real-world clinical outcomes of metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma treated with abiraterone and enzalutamide. The findings will assist healthcare providers in making more informed decisions when choosing between these two drugs for treating these patients. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 80 patients at our tertiary care hospital was conducted from January 2015 to July 2022. Data were analysed using SPSS version 20.0. An independent sample Results: In our final analysis of 80 patients, the median age was 65 years, with 88% having an eastern cooperative oncology group performance status between 0 and 2. Histopathology showed adenocarcinoma in 91% of cases. Grade Group III-IV disease was present in 51.3%, and 67.5% had a Gleason Score of >8. Bilateral orchidectomy was performed in 41 patients (51.25%), with a median Gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue use of 32 months. Most patients (72.5%) were castration-sensitive. Among the 80 patients, 60 (75%) were treated with abiraterone and 20 (25%) with enzalutamide. The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) doubling time was >6 months in 80% of the abiraterone group and 75% of the enzalutamide group. PSA response rates were similar for both drugs, with comparable rates of progressive disease, partial response, stable disease and complete response ( Conclusion: The findings suggest that both abiraterone and enzalutamide are effective in prolonging progression-free and overall survival in this patient population, providing comparable safety. Further studies are recommended to validate these findings and inform clinical decision-making.
