Ripretinib for the treatment of advanced, imatinib-resistant gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
Review in Journal of digestive diseases. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Discovery of constitutive activation of KIT/PDGFRA tyrosine kinases in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) leads to the development of the targeted drug imatinib. However, the inevitable development of imatinib resistance remains a major issue. Ripretinib is a novel targeted drug that inhibits the activities of a broad spectrum of drug-resistant KIT/PDGFRA mutants. It was approved in 2020 and is currently recommended by major international guidelines as the fourth-line and beyond therapy for advanced GISTs. Emerging evidence shows that ripretinib is superior to sunitinib as a second-line treatment for KIT exon 11-mutated GISTs due to its activity against highly heterogeneous frequently occurring secondary mutations. This review summarizes current data on the use of ripretinib to treat advanced imatinib-resistant GISTs. We also propose future research directions to improve the targeted GIST treatment.
