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.

Abstract

Purpose: Patients with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) with progressive disease generally require a change or escalation in systemic therapy. For patients with limited (1-3) sites of progressive disease (oligoprogression), metastasis-directed therapy with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) may allow a longer interval before next-line systemic therapy. Methods and Materials: This is a retrospective study of patients with oligoprogressive metastatic CRPC (mCRPC) treated with SBRT at a single center between 2011 and 2022. The primary endpoint was time to next systemic therapy (TTNST) after SBRT stratified by the presence/absence of untreated nonprogressing metastases. Secondary endpoints included TTNST of the overall cohort and median overall survival (OS) after SBRT. Results: Thirty-two patients with oligoprogressive mCRPC received SBRT to 38 metastases. Patients had a median age of 72.5 years (range, 50.6-84.3) and a median PSA of 6.85 ng/mL (range, 0.39-922.0) at the time of SBRT. The most commonly used SBRT regimen was 3000 cGy in 5 fractions (18 metastases, 47.4%). Sixteen patients were treated to all known sites of disease, whereas 16 patients received SBRT to oligoprogressive metastases but had at least 1 untreated nonprogressing metastasis at the time of SBRT. Patients had received a median of 1.0 prior line of androgen receptor signaling inhibitors and were predominantly (26 patients, 81.3%) chemotherapy naïve. Following SBRT, the median TTNST was 10.1 months and the median OS was 41.3 months. For patients with 0 versus ≥1 untreated nonprogressing metastasis, TTNST was 11.3 versus 8.7 months, respectively (HR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.33-1.36, logrank Conclusions: In this cohort, patients with oligoprogressive mCRPC treated with SBRT delayed the next line of systemic therapy for a median of 10.1 months. SBRT in patients with oligoprogressive mCRPC may delay initiation of the next-line systemic therapy in well-selected patients, including those with ≥1 untreated nonprogressing metastasis.
