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

Melanoma arising in association with a blue nevus (BN) is rare but has molecular similarities to uveal melanoma (UM), including GNAQ/11 mutations. Tebentafusp was recently approved for UM based on improved overall survival in a phase 3 study. We hypothesized that tebentafusp may be active in BN-associated melanoma. Here, we present a case of metastatic BN-associated melanoma with rapid response and ~1 year of disease control on tebentafusp. We also explore molecular and histological features of secondary resistance. Our case highlights that PD-1-resistant melanomas should be screened for GNAQ/11 mutations, as tebentafusp may be a treatment option in this extremely rare disease.
