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

We studied 128 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) relapsing after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). Disease at the time of treatment with Imatinib was in chronic phase (CP) in 51 patients, accelerated phase (AP) in 31 and blastic crisis (BC) in 46. Of the 51 patients in CP, 14 were in cytogenetic and two in molecular relapses. The median interval between relapse and Imatinib therapy was 5 months (0-65). A total of 50 patients had failed treatment with donor lymphocyte infusions prior to Imatinib. The overall hemato-logical response rate was 84% (98% for patients relapsing in CP). The complete cytogenetic response (CCR) was 58% for patients in CP, 48% for AP and 22% for patients in BC. Complete molecular responses were obtained in 25 patients (26%), of whom 21 were in CP or AP. With a median follow-up of 9 months, the estimated 2-year survival for CP, AP and BC patients was 100, 86 and 12%, respectively. Out of 79 evaluable patients, 45 (57%) achieved full donor and 11 (14%) mixed chimerism after Imatinib. We conclude that Imatinib has significant activity against CML in relapse after allogeneic SCT. Durable cytogenetic and molecular remissions are obtainable in patients in CP.
