Metastatic Syringocystadenocarcinoma Papilliferum Treated with Enzalutamide: A Case Report and a Review of the Literature.
Article in Case reports in dermatology. 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
Introduction: Syringocystadenocarcinoma papilliferum (SCACP) is a rare malignancy of the elderly originating from apocrine adnexal glands, mostly developing in the head and neck district. To date, there is no established treatment for metastatic SCACP, leaving affected patients with small therapeutic opportunities. Case Presentation: Herein, it is described the case of a 70-year-old man affected by metastatic SCACP, treated with three different sequential therapy lines: carboplatin plus paclitaxel, epirubicin, and an off-label protocol with enzalutamide, achieving 41 months overall survival. Off-label enzalutamide treatment has been justified by androgen receptor expression by SCACP cells, a common feature of apocrine glands derived tumors. Interestingly, SCACP demonstrated to be responsive to enzalutamide treatment, even though the patient precociously stopped the treatment due to severe toxicity. Conclusion: This case represents the first evidence of hormonotherapy administration in a SCACP patient, possibly providing the base for a new therapeutic opportunity for this rare malignancy.
