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

Colorectal peritoneal metastases (CPM) are the third most common site of metastatic spread of colorectal cancer and are associated with worse survival than other sites of metastatic disease. In recent years tumoral circulating tumoral DNA (ctDNA) mutational status has been increasingly utilized in clinical decision making for metastatic colorectal cancer patients despite its utility in CPM being poorly understood. Here we describe standard of care performed mutational profiles and associated outcomes for unresectable CPM patients, with a contextual comparison to 160 unresected colorectal liver metastases (CLM) patients. Of 508 patients, 288 (57 %) had CPM alone and 220 (43 %) had CPM with extraperitoneal metastases. Patients with synchronous CPM and CLM had worse overall survival (HR 1.67 [95 %CI 1.26-2.22]). Mutations in ctDNA were noted in 110/145 (75.9 %) of CPM patients, with mutations in KRAS or PIK3CA ctDNA being associated with worse survival. Importantly, the association between tumoral mutational profile and survival differed by site of metastatic disease. The prognostic significance of specific mutations, particularly BRAF and KRAS, differs between patients with CPM and CLM, and supports the distinct biology of these metastatic sites and the importance of tissue and circulating genomic profiling to risk-stratify these patients according to site of metastasis.
