Histologic- and Genomic-Directed Adjuvant Therapy for Ampullary Adenocarcinoma: A Hidden Genome-Derived Analysis.

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
backgroundThe benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) for ampullary adenocarcinoma is unclear. The Hidden Genome model classifies prognostic subtypes with greater accuracy than standard histologic classification (intestinal [INT] vs pancreatobiliary [PB]), but its predictive capacity to guide the use of AC remains unstudied.
methodsWe applied the Hidden Genome model to an international cohort of 183 patients with resected ampullary adenocarcinoma who underwent genomic sequencing. The model quantified the predicted cell of origin (colorectal vs pancreas/distal bile duct) in all specimens. Overall survival (OS) was compared using Kaplan-Meier estimates, stratified by AC use versus surgery alone (SA).
resultsMost patients (n=128; 69.9%) received AC, which was not associated with a significant improvement in OS (median, 50.9 months [95% CI, 36.5-76.9] vs 53.8 months [95% CI, 32.4-119.0]; P=.816). Histologic subtype was neither associated with prognosis (P=.241) nor predictive of chemotherapy efficacy for INT-subtype (P=.379) or PB-subtype (P=.544) tumors. When stratified by genomic subtype, the colorectal group had a favorable prognosis regardless of AC use (median OS, 74.4 months [95% CI, 33.8-97.8] for AC vs 98.7 months [95% CI, 32.4-140.9] for SA; P=.889). Among patients with pancreas/distal bile duct tumors, those who received AC had longer survival compared with those who underwent SA (78.2 months [9.8-not reached] vs 22.7 months [2.3-not reached], respectively; hazard ratio, 0.17 [95% CI, 0.04-0.80]; P=.024).
conclusionsAC regimens were not associated with improved survival in histologically defined INT- or PB-subtype ampullary adenocarcinoma. However, genomic classification better stratified risk groups and identified patients more likely to benefit from AC.
