A clofarabine-based bridging regimen in patients with relapsed ALL and persistent minimal residual disease (MRD).

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 patients with relapsed ALL, minimal residual disease (MRD) identified prior to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a strong predictor of relapse. We report our experience using a combination of reduced-dosing clofarabine, CY and etoposide as a 'bridge' to HCT in eight patients with high risk or relapsed ALL and pre-HCT MRD. All patients had detectable MRD (>0.01%, flow cytometry) at the start of therapy with all eight achieving MRD reduction following one cycle. The regimen was well tolerated with seven grade 3/4 toxicities occurring among four of the eight patients. Five patients (62.5%) are alive, one died from relapse (12.5%) and two from transplant-related mortality (25%). The combination of reduced-dose clofarabine, CY and etoposide as bridging therapy appears to be well tolerated in patients with relapsed ALL and is effective in reducing pre-HCT MRD.
