Successful conversion surgery following tislelizumab with chemotherapy in a patient with stage IIIC lung adenocarcinoma harboring RET fusions: A case report and review of the literature.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have emerged as a beacon of hope for most patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who are no longer surgical candidates. However, the literature on the use of immunotherapy in patients with NSCLC with rearranged during transfection (RET) gene fusions is scant. The present study reports the case of a 61-year-old female patient, diagnosed with stage IIIC lung adenocarcinoma, exhibiting two RET gene fusions and high programmed death-ligand 1 expression. Following four treatment cycles of tislelizumab in combination with pemetrexed and cisplatin, the patient was successfully downstaged, enabling radical surgery. The post-operative pathology analysis indicated a major pathologic response. This case study contributes to the growing body of evidence supporting the use of ICIs in treating locally advanced NSCLC with RET gene fusions.
