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

ETV6-ABL1 is a rare gene fusion with oncogenic properties, reported so far in 28 patients presenting a variety of haematological malignancies associated with clinical outcome, including chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm (cMPN). Here we report on a 46-year-old female who presented with Philadelphia negative CML, positive for the ETV6-ABL1 fusion. Whole genome screening carried out with oligonucleotide arrays showed a subtle loss at 12p13 and cryptic imbalances within the 9q34.3 region in a highly unstable genome. FISH mapping with custom BAC probes identified two breakpoints 5 Mb apart within the 9q34 region, together with a break at 12p13. While FISH with commercial BCR-ABL1 probes failed to detect any ABL1 changes, the ETV6 break-apart probe conclusively identified the ETV6-ABL1 fusion thus determining the probe's role as the primary diagnostic FISH test for this chimeric oncogene. In addition, we confirm the association of the ETV6-ABL1 fusion with imatinib resistance reported so far in three other patients, while recording excellent response to the 2nd generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) nilotinib. In summary, we highlight the value of ETV6 FISH as a diagnostic test and the therapy resistance of ETV6-ABL1 positive disorders to imatinib.
