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

purpose of reviewThe introduction of PSMA-PET/CT scans is expected to increase the incidence of clinically lymph node-positive metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). The 8th AJCC-TNM classify disease with metastasis limited to pelvic nodes (cN1M0) and nonregional lymph nodes (M1a) as stage IV. To date, there is limited prospective evidence for management of this subgroup. Additionally, no specific recommendations currently exist for managing M1a as a distinct condition but as a part of CHAARTED low volume disease (LVD). Our review examines relevant results from phase III trials examining the management of clinically positive nodal disease over the last decade. RECENT

findingsSTAMPEDE is the only phase III trial that gave recent data about cN1M0 and isolated M1a management. Cohort sub-analysis of the control arm showed improved failure-free survival after local radiotherapy (RT) plus Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT), while metastasis-free survival benefit from Abiraterone Acetate with Prednisolone (AAP) addition was noted when compared to standard of care (SOC), awaiting the overall survival (OS) benefit result. The STAMPEDE H arm showed a marginal significance of M1a stratified OS after RT. Future trials, including PEARLS, ALADDIN and STAMPEDE2, are expected to offer more insights. Interventional Phase III trials directed to clinically node positive patients are still needed to aid deciding on the best management, and nodal metastasis number and size impact on prognosis.
