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

We evaluated the feasibility of ruxolitinib therapy followed by a reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen for patients with myelofibrosis (MF) undergoing transplantation in a 2-stage Simon phase II trial. The aims were to decrease the incidence of graft failure (GF) and nonrelapse mortality (NRM) compared with data from the previous Myeloproliferative Disorders Research Consortium 101 Study. The plan was to enroll 11 patients each in related donor (RD) and unrelated donor (URD) arms, with trial termination if ≥3 failures (GF or death by day +100 post-transplant) occurred in the RD arm or ≥6 failures occurred in the URD. A total of 21 patients were enrolled, including 7 in the RD arm and 14 in the URD arm. The RD arm did not meet the predetermined criteria for proceeding to stage II. Although the URD arm met the criteria for stage II, the study was terminated owing to poor accrual and a significant number of failures. In all 19 transplant recipients, ruxolitinib was tapered successfully without significant side effects, and 9 patients (47%) had a significant decrease in symptom burden. The cumulative incidences of GF, NRM, acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and chronic GVHD at 24 months were 16%, 28%, 64%, and 76%, respectively. On an intention-to-treat basis, the 2-year overall survival was 61% for the RD arm and 70% for the URD arm. Ruxolitinib can be integrated as pretransplantation treatment for patients with MF, and a tapering strategy before transplantation is safe, allowing patients to commence conditioning therapy with a reduced symptom burden. However, GF and NRM remain significant.
