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

Lenalidomide is a member of the immunomodulatory agents (IMiDs), and is currently approved for use in myelodysplastic syndromes and multiple myeloma. In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), lenalidomide has anti-tumor activity which appears distinct, both mechanistically and clinically, from that observed in the approved indications. Furthermore, lenalidomide leads to toxicities, such as tumor flare reaction and tumor lysis, even at low dosing, that is not anticipated with lenalidomide therapy in other disorders. This review will discuss the current understanding of the mechanisms of action of lenalidomide in CLL, lessons of administration learned from clinical trials in CLL to date, and the potential role of lenalidomide in CLL for the future.
