Comprehensive Genomic Profiling in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Real-World Cohort Study in Finland.
Article in Cancer medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundNon-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a disease with a low survival rate and poor prognosis. Targeted therapies have improved treatment outcomes as driver mutations have been identified, especially in adenocarcinomas. Comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) provides insights into the genetic mutation profile of cancer and helps identify actionable mutations. The mutational landscape of cancer varies based on the patient's ethnic background, and there is limited information on the genetic profile of NSCLC within the Finnish population. MATERIAL AND
methodsWe analysed the genetic mutational profile of 96 advanced NSCLCs that underwent CGP between November 2021 and March 2023 at Tampere University Hospital. Additionally, we compared the genomic alterations in our cohort with those in the international datasets.
resultsClinically actionable alterations associated with a targeted therapy were identified in 45% of patients, including 63% of never-smokers and 41% of ever-smokers. The most common actionable alteration was KRAS G12C (18%), followed by EGFR alterations (14%). However, only 33% of the patients with an actionable alteration received targeted therapy. The median tumour mutational burden (TMB) was 5, with 31% of patients exhibiting a TMB greater than 10.
conclusionsCGP affects the treatment strategies for NSCLC. Nearly half of our entire cohort had a genetic alteration eligible for approved targeted therapies. Besides these findings, CGP provides additional data to assess treatment decisions and outcomes, including co-occurring genetic alterations and TMB. In real-world clinical practice, the practical application of this information can be restricted by the varying unavailability of optimal treatments.
