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

backgroundThe combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors and chemotherapy has shown promising results for the treatment of advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC). Based on the results of the TOPAZ-1 trial, a gemcitabine and cisplatin plus durvalumab (GCD) regimen was recently approved as first-line therapy for patients with advanced BTC. However, post-GCD conversion surgery has not been previously studied. Herein, we describe a case of advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) successfully treated with radical surgery after GCD. CASE SUMMARY: A 65-year-old female diagnosed with advanced ICC with periductal infiltration into the hepatic hilum underwent eight cycles of GCD, followed by durvalumab maintenance treatment, with mild adverse events. Partial response was obtained. Subsequently, a conversion surgery with extended left hepatectomy and bile duct resection was performed. The resection margins were negative, and the pathological diagnosis was compatible with small duct type ICC. The patient remained disease-free for 8 months without adjuvant chemotherapy.

conclusionWe describe the case of a patient who received successful conversion surgery after GCD treatment for advanced ICC.
