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

aimTo characterize contemporary global real-world metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) treatment, guideline concordance, trends, and potential trend drivers. MATERIALS AND

methodsRetrospective data from the Ipsos Global Oncology Monitor database for the United States, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, and the United Kingdom were used for descriptive analysis of mHSPC patients, treating physicians, and treatment utilization. Statistical testing of differences among treatment cohorts for the final study period was conducted.

resultsOf 15,662 total mHSPC patients across countries (2019-2024), the 1404 patients from the most recent and relevant study period (August 2023-January 2024) had an average age of 72-74 years, good baseline functioning, high-risk prostate cancer features, and cardiometabolic conditions as top comorbidities. Treatment mostly occurred in hospital/institutional settings and urban locales by oncologists versus urologists. Monotherapy androgen deprivation therapy (mADT) use declined while use of novel androgen receptor inhibitor (nARI) combination therapies, especially doublets, increased. Concordance between real-world and guideline-recommended treatment varied by country, ranging from 43.8% to 61.6%.

conclusionsConcordance with guidelines improved globally driven by nARIs. Persistent use of mADT, a non-guideline-recommended therapy, indicates physicians' concern about the safety and trade-offs with current options. New therapies delivering greater net benefits are needed, along with education on guideline adherence.
