Prognostic Significance of Pretreatment [¹⁸F]ALF-NOTA-FAPI-04 PET/CT in Patients With Recurrent Gastric Cancer Undergoing Combined PD-1 Inhibitor and Chemotherapy.

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
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of [¹⁸F]ALF-NOTA-FAPI-04 PET/CT-derived parameters, including the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), FAPI-avid tumor volume (FTV), and total lesion FAP expression (TLF), in patients with recurrent gastric cancer undergoing combined chemoimmunotherapy. We sought to establish a noninvasive imaging biomarker framework to optimize patient stratification and therapeutic decision-making. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis retrospective cohort study analyzed 51 patients with recurrent gastric cancer who received programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors combined with chemotherapy after gastrectomy. All patients underwent [¹⁸F]ALF-NOTA-FAPI-04 PET/CT within 14 days of chemoimmunotherapy. Semi-quantitative parameters (SUVmax, FTV, and TLF) were derived using semi-automated tumor segmentation. The primary endpoint of this study was the assessment of the clinical efficacy of chemoimmunotherapy, categorized as a durable or nondurable clinical benefit. The secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). In a subgroup of 16 patients who underwent sequential [¹⁸F]FDG PET/CT within seven days of [¹⁸F]ALF-NOTA-FAPI-04 PET/CT, tracer uptake values were compared between the two PET/CT examinations.
results51 patients were included. The median PFS and OS were 7 and 10 months, respectively. Durable clinical benefit (DCB) was observed in 30 patients and showed significantly lower SUVmax, FTV, and TLF values than non-DCB. TLF demonstrated the highest diagnostic accuracy for DCB (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC] = 0.80). Multivariable analysis identified TLF ≥ 188.88 SUVbw·cm³ as an independent factor associated with PFS (hazard ratio [HR] = 7.29,
conclusion[¹⁸F]ALF-NOTA-FAPI-04 PET/CT may be a useful imaging tool for predicting clinical outcomes in patients with recurrent gastric cancer undergoing treatment with PD-1 inhibitors and chemotherapy.
