Clinical utility and characteristics of comprehensive genomic profiling tests in patients with gynecologic cancer: a multi-institutional survey in Kinki District, Japan.
Article in International journal of clinical oncology, 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
backgroundComprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) has been used to identify mutations in several hundred cancer-related genes. Patients may receive treatment that targets specific genetic mutations revealed by CGP. This study aimed to investigate the usefulness of CGP in gynecologic malignancies.
methodsHospital records including CGP and clinical information were reviewed from 20 institutions in the Kinki District of Japan for patients with gynecological malignancies who underwent CGP.
resultsA total of 724 patients were included, of whom 162 had cervical cancer, 157 had endometrial cancer, 327 had ovarian cancer, 29 had other cancers, and 49 had sarcomas. Actionable gene alterations were identified in 370 (51.1%). The most commonly altered genes were PIK3CA (14.4%), high loss of heterozygosity (12.4%), and high tumor mutation burden (10.9%). Matched therapy, based on actionable gene alterations, was administered to 73 patients (10.1%). Of these, 23 patients received matched therapy for a high tumor mutation burden, 10 for high microsatellite instability and BRCA1/2, six for ERBB2, and five for PIK3CA. Twenty-five patients died before receiving their CGP results. The objective response and disease control rates were 23.6% and 41.8%, respectively. Of the 122 patients to whom genetic counseling was recommended, 68 accepted.
conclusionsCGP testing for gynecological malignancies in Japan may improve therapeutic efficacy. However, several issues remain to be addressed, including the low matched therapy rate and death prior to availability of CGP test results.
