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

BACKGROUND &

aimsAnti-FGFR therapies changed the treatment landscape for patients with previously treated, advanced, or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) harbouring FGFR2 fusions/rearrangements. However, primary resistance to FGFR inhibitors remains a key challenge. In the present real-world study, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of concomitant GAs in patients with FGFR2-positive CCA treated with pemigatinib.

methodsThis study included PEMIREAL-PEMIBIL patients treated with pemigatinib in second or later lines. Only patients who underwent extensive DNA- and/or RNA-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis were considered. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS), with overall response rate, disease control rate and overall survival (OS) as secondary endpoint. OS and PFS were calculated by Kaplan-Meier and log-rank test. Multivariate analysis used cox-regression model. Level of statistical significance p was 0.05.

resultsOf 72 patients of PEMIREAL-PEMIBIL, 63 patients had evaluable NGS data, with concomitant GAs identified in 28 patients (44.4%). The most frequently observed concomitant GAs involved BAP1 (7/63, 11.1%), CDKN2A (7/63, 11.1%), TP53 (6/63, 9.5%), CDKN2B (5/63, 7.9%), PTEN (3/63, 4.7%) and IDH1 (1/63, 1.5%). A significantly shorter PFS was observed in patients with CDKN2A mutations compared to CDKN2A wild-type tumours (4.79 vs. 8.66 months, p = 0.0011, HR: 3.48 95% CI: 0.91-13.24), and similarly in patients with BAP1 mutations compared to BAP1 wild-type tumours (5.97 vs. 8.52 months, p = 0.025, HR:2.55 95% CI: 0.72-9.00). No significant differences in OS were observed.

conclusionsOur results support the negative prognostic role of BAP1 and CDKN2A GAs on PFS in patients with locally advanced or metastatic CCA with FGFR2 gene fusion/rearrangement treated with pemigatinib in a real-world setting.
