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

Donor lymphocyte infusions (DLIs) provide effective therapy for patients with various hematological malignancies who have relapsed after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In patients with multiple myeloma (MM), DLIs can induce response rates of 40-52%. DLIs were employed as treatment for MM relapse or as prophylaxis for relapse in MM patients undergoing allo-HSCT. The clinically most relevant treatment-related morbidity with DLIs is the occurrence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Secondly, graft failure and the immune escape of extramedullary plasmocytoma have been reported. The fact that previous clinical reports have documented graft-versus-myeloma (GVM) activity without GVHD suggests that at least two distinct immunocompetent cell populations mediating GVHD and/or GVM may exist. Further characterization of the effector cells such as T cells and/or NK cells and their targets may help to clarify the immune response that mediates the GVM effect. This review considers the results of clinical approaches with DLI for MM, with emphasis on strategies to prevent GVHD while preserving the GVM effect. Furthermore, currently investigated molecular antigenic targets for the GVM effect such as MM-specific idiotypic determinant of immunoglobulin variable regions, several PRAME epitopes and antigenic structures encoded by cancer germline-specific genes as candidates for immunotherapy trials are discussed.
