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

aimsTo describe real-world patient characteristics, treatment patterns, and clinical outcomes in primary advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer (pA/R EC) by mismatch repair/microsatellite instability (MMR/MSI) status who initiated first-line therapy. MATERIALS &

methodsData from the Flatiron Health electronic health record-derived database were analyzed from patients with a diagnosis of pA/R EC who started treatment between 1 January 2013, and 31 August 2022, from ≈ 280 US clinics. MMR/MSI status and treatment patterns were summarized; time to next treatment (TTNT) and overall survival (OS) were estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods.

resultsOf 2022 patients, 11.03%, 27.79%, and 61.18% had MMR-deficient/MSI-high (dMMR/MSI-H), MMR-proficient/microsatellite stable (MMRp/MSS), and unknown MMR/MSI status, respectively. Platinum-based chemotherapy combinations, including carboplatin-paclitaxel, were the most frequent first-line regimens (dMMR/MSI-H, 49.33%; MMRp/MSS, 55.52%; unknown, 65.08%); treatment patterns differed between subgroups. Median TTNT with platinum-based combinations were 6.87, 8.08, and 7.85 months, respectively; OS medians were 41.89, 26.18, and 21.62 months, respectively.

conclusionsPlatinum-based chemotherapy combinations, the recommended first-line treatment, were not used in ≈ 40% of patients. TTNT rates were similar to the PFS rates in the carboplatin-paclitaxel arms in the RUBY and GY-018 trials; OS rates were similar to RUBY, highlighting the potential for combination therapies to improve outcomes.
