Driver mutations associated with signatures of platinum sensitivity in germ cell tumors.
Article in NPJ precision oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We sought to evaluate the genomic and transcriptomic landscapes in primary and metastatic germ cell tumors (GCTs; N = 138) to uncover factors that drive cisplatin resistance. Prevalence was calculated for platinum-resistant alterations (PRAs; KRAS, TP53, and KIT mutations, and MDM2 amplification) and high copy number amplifications (CNA ≥ 6 copies). Tumors were designated as chemo-naïve (PreC, N = 66) or post-chemotherapy (PostC, N = 17). A transcriptomic signature associated with platinum sensitivity (PSS, high suggests increased sensitivity) was applied. KIT mutations were observed in 14.5% of primary versus 1.8% of met and 0% of lymph. TP53 mutations were identified in 10% of primary GCTs versus 17% of met and 16.7% of lymph. MDM2 CNAs were similar between sites. PRA-positive PreC GCTs had significantly lower average PSS scores compared to PRA-negative tumors. Lower PSS scores in chemo-naïve tumors were associated with PRAs, suggesting a potential mechanism for platinum resistance.
