A phase-2 trial of low-dose pomalidomide in myelofibrosis.
Trial report in Leukemia, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 41 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 a previous study, we reported on the safety and efficacy of low-dose (0.5 mg) pomalidomide and prednisone and pomalidomide alone (2 mg/day), for the treatment of anemia associated with myelofibrosis (MF). The current study examined the value of low-dose pomalidomide alone. The main eligibility criterion was transfusion-dependency or hemoglobin <10 gm per 100 ml. Anemia response was assessed by International Working Group criteria. Pomalidomide (0.5 mg/day) was given to 58 patients (median age 68 years); 46 (79%) were transfusion-dependent and 42 were JAK2V617F positive. Anemia response was documented only in the presence of JAK2V617F (24 vs 0%; P=0.03) but was not further affected by mutant allele burden (P=0.39); 9 of the 10 anemia responders became transfusion independent. Anemia response in JAK2V617F-positive patients was predicted by the presence of pomalidomide-induced basophilia in the first month of therapy (38 vs 6%; P=0.02) or absence of marked splenomegaly (38 vs 11%; P=0.05). A total of 14 (58%) of 24 patients with a platelet count of ≤ 100 × 10(9) cells/l experienced a >50% increment in platelet count. There were no spleen responses. Grade 3 or 4 thrombocytopenia/neutropenia occurred in 2%/0% of patients. Low-dose pomalidomide is effective in the treatment of anemia associated with JAK2V617F-positive MF; response is predicted by early drug-induced basophilia.
