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

SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumor (SMARCA4-UT) in the chest is a high-grade malignant tumor that grows rapidly and often carries a poor prognosis. Unfortunately, there are currently no effective treatment available until now. Here, we report a case of SMARCA4-UT in a patient who showed a swift response to a combination treatment of penpulimab, anlotinib, and chemotherapy. A 55-year-old man was diagnosed with thoracic SMARCA4-UT along with metastases to multiple lymph nodes, the pleura, and bones. Immunohistochemical (IHC) testing indicated the absence of PD-L1 expression in tumor cells. He was given sintilimab and anlotinib as first line treatment. However, a follow-up chest CT revealed progressive disease (PD) after the first cycle treatment. Subsequently, the second line regimen was modified to etoposide and cisplatin (EP) combined with anlotinib and penpulimab. The effectiveness evaluation revealed partial remission (PR) following two cycles of the second-line regimen treatment. Notably, the patient's progress-free survival (PFS) exceeds 7 months and the overall survival up to 12 months. Our case implies that a combination of chemotherapy, anlotinib, and penpulimab might offer a promising therapeutic approach for PD-L1-negative thoracic SMARCA4-UT.
