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

Precision oncology has undergone a transformative evolution from static genomic profiling toward dynamic, multi-omics frameworks capable of capturing tumor heterogeneity and adaptive resistance in real time. Central to this paradigm shift is the emerging recognition that G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a vastly underexploited axis of oncogenic signaling, tumor microenvironment (TME) modulation, and non-genetic adaptive resistance. Here we delineate the effective transition to GPCR-focused precision oncology, emphasizing the integrated deployment of next-generation sequencing (NGS), single-cell transcriptomics, expression-based liquid biopsies (ctRNA, exosomal miRNA, circulating tumor cells), and AI-driven quantitative systems network modeling to interrogate GPCR signaling dynamics across solid and hematologic malignancies. GPCRs, comprising approximately 800 human receptors with extensive pharmacological plasticity, encompassing biased agonism, allosteric modulation, receptor heterodimerization, and ligand-independent signaling, serve as critical integrators of extracellular cues and intracellular transcriptional programs. Their overexpression, mutation, and epigenetic dysregulation in multiple cancer types positions them as both prognostic biomarkers and actionable therapeutic targets. We discuss recent advances in integrative genomic platforms, liquid biopsy evolution, case studies of GPCR-driven tumor evolution, and cutting-edge therapeutic modalities, including PROTACs (Proteolysis Targeting Chimeras), biased ligands, RNA therapeutics, and digital twin modeling, to articulate a forward-looking vision for GPCR-centric precision oncology. By harnessing real-time tumor monitoring and AI-optimized adaptive therapies, this framework promises to overcome the limitations of static genomic approaches, enabling mid-treatment recalibration to combat resistance and improve durable survival in heterogeneous solid tumors.
