The role of FDG PET assessment in patients with advanced breast cancer treated with cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors in the second-line setting.

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
Background: Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors have demonstrated a survival benefit in the second-line treatment of patients with hormone receptor-positive human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative advanced breast cancer. However, identifying prognostic biomarkers remains a challenge. Thus, we aimed to assess the prognostic value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (FDG-PET-CT) performed before CDK4/6 inhibitors initiation. Methods: This single-center retrospective analysis comprised patients treated with CDK4/6 inhibitors in the second-line setting between 2018 and 2024, with FDG-PET-CT performed before CDK4/6 inhibitor initiation. Results: The study included 39 patients with a median age of 63 years (IQR 50 -71). Among them, 12 had Conclusions: FDG-PET-CT performed before cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor commencement is a valuable prognostic tool in hormone receptor-positive human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative advanced breast cancer. Patients with SUVmax less than 8.4 experienced extended progression-free survival compared to those with higher SUVmax.
