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

backgroundSince homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) is relatively uncommon in pancreatic cancer (PC), its impact on time-to-treatment failure (TTF) among patients undergoing systemic chemotherapy for unresectable and recurrent PC remains uncertain.

methodsAmong patients with unresectable and recurrent PC enrolled in the Center for Cancer Genomics and Advanced Therapeutics (C-CAT) database by July 2023, a total of 1394 patients who underwent first-line chemotherapy with either gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel (GnP) or FOLFIRINOX (FFX) and received tissue-based CGP tests after disease progression were included in this study. HRD was defined as the presence of germline or somatic genetic mutations in homologous recombination repair (HRR)-related genes such as ATM, BARD1, BRIP1, BRCA1/2, CHEK2, CDK12, PALB, and RAD51C/D. We investigated the correlation between HRD and TTF among patients treated with GnP and FFX.

resultsFirst-line chemotherapy consisted of GnP in 69% of the cases and FFX in 31%. The CGP tests used were NCC OncoPanel and FoundationOne CDx in 26% and 74%, respectively. HRR-related genetic abnormalities were identified in 107 patients (7.6%): BRCA2 (n = 51), ATM (n = 34), BRCA1 (n = 9), PALB2 (n = 9), among others. In the GnP cohort, the median TTF was comparable between the HRD and non-HRD groups (5.3 vs 4.6 months, P = 0.44). Conversely, in the FFX cohort, it was significantly longer in the HRD group compared to the non-HRD group (7.3 vs. 4.7 months, p < 0.01).

conclusionsOur findings suggest that HRR-related genetic abnormalities might be predictive of TTF in platinum-based chemotherapy for PC.
