High-dose chemotherapy using BEAM for tumor debulking without stem cell support followed by early allogeneic reduced intensity conditioning transplantation to induce a graft-versus-lymphoma effect in patients with high risk or refractory lymphoma.
Trial report in Bone marrow transplantation, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
In patients with refractory lymphoma, we tested the hypothesis that high-dose chemotherapy (BEAM) without stem cell support followed by a reduced intensity (RIC) allogeneic transplant with fludarabine and 2 Gy TBI 28 days later results in tumor debulking and establishment of a graft vs lymphoma effect, with acceptable toxicity. In a pilot protocol we treated 10 patients, 22-62 (median 47) years of age with high-risk or refractory Hodgkin's or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Donors were HLA identical siblings (eight) or unrelated volunteers. None died during the neutropenic phase after BEAM which lasted up to the RIC HSCT. The duration of neutropenia was 31-43 (median 36) days. All patients engrafted and nine achieved CR. All developed acute GvHD (median grade III) and all patients at risk developed chronic GvHD. Three patients died of GvHD. One relapsed and six patients are in continuous CR 10-32 (median 15) months after HSCT. This approach appears feasible and results in a high response rate. Neutropenia duration is of concern. It remains to be tested whether separation of debulking chemotherapy and induction of allogeneic effects confers an advantage.
