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

BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have improved the prognosis of chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) to an extent that survival is largely determined by non-CML mortality. Monitoring for minimal residual disease by measuring BCR-ABL1 messenger RNA is a key component of CML management. CP-CML patients who achieve a stable deep molecular response may discontinue (TKIs) with an ~ 50% chance of entering treatment-free remission (TFR). So far discontinuation of TKIs has largely been limited to clinical trials, but is on the verge of becoming a part of wider clinical practice. Careful patient selection, dense molecular monitoring, and prompt reinstitution of treatment in the event of relapse are all vital to reproduce the same level of success. Much effort has been dedicated to identifying therapeutic strategies to eliminate CML stem cells and enable to TFR in more patients. Unfortunately, despite promising preclinical data, as yet, none of the various approaches have entered clinical practice.
