Low doses of GM-CSF (molgramostim) and G-CSF (filgrastim) after cyclophosphamide (4 g/m2) enhance the peripheral blood progenitor cell harvest: results of two randomized studies including 120 patients.

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
The use of a combination of G-CSF and GM-CSF versus G-CSF alone, after cyclophosphamide (4 g/m2) was compared in two randomized phase III studies, including 120 patients. In study A, 60 patients received 5 x 2 microg/kg/day of G-CSF and GM-CSF compared to 5 mug/kg/day of G-CSF. In study B, 60 patients received 2.5 x 2 microg/kg/day G-CSF and GM-CSF compared to G-CSF alone (5 microg/kg/day). With the aim to collect at least 5 x 10(6)/kg CD34 cells in a maximum of three large volume leukapherises (LK), 123 LK were performed in study A, showing a significantly higher number of patients reaching 10 x 10(6)/kg CD34 cells (21/29 in G+GM-CSF arm vs 11/27 in G-CSF arm, P=0.00006). In study B, 109 LK were performed, with similar results (10/27 vs 15/26, P=0.003). In both the study, the total harvest of CD34 cells/kg was twofold higher in G-CSF plus GM-CSF group (18.3 x 10(6) in study A and 15.85 x 10(6) in study B) than in G-CSF group (9 x 10(6) in study A and 8.1 x 10(6) in study B), a significant difference only seen in multiple myeloma, with no significant difference in terms of mobilized myeloma cells between G-CSF and GM-CSF groups.
