The Impact and Performance of the Molecular Tumor Board: Three-Year Activity in Precision Medicine for Treatment of Patients with Cancer from the Marche Region, in Italy.
Article in Oncology and therapy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
introductionCancer incidence is rising in Italy, making it harder for researchers to search for innovative and comprehensive treatment strategies. The advancement of precision medicine, the hunt for molecular targets, and the development of drugs that may operate on a specific target have all become increasingly important aspects of the oncological treatment strategy in recent years. The aim of this study is to analyze the activity and performance of the Oncology and Research Center of the Marche Region (CORM) and its Molecular Tumor Board (MTB) in implementing precision medicine to improve cancer treatment.
methodsCORM was established to provide multidisciplinary diagnostic and therapeutic services, promoting early diagnosis, innovative treatments, and continuous patients support. The MTB, including various specialists, facilitates the interpretation of genomic profiles to identify targeted therapies.
resultsFrom June 2021 to May 2024, 118 patients were evaluated at the MTB of the Marche Region, with 77 undergoing molecular profiling. This study highlights the efficacy of the MTB in selecting appropriate molecular tests, interpreting results, and recommending personalized treatment strategies, leading to improved patient outcomes.
conclusionChallenges such as the complexity of genomic data interpretation and the need for more computational tools to assist clinicians were also identified. Still, constant multidisciplinary collaboration between experts and the finest possible innovative technological support are required to achieve the best outcomes in cancer treatment.
