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

Novel insights into the pathophysiology of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) have identified the B-cell receptor and Toll-like receptor pathway as well as immune evasion and suppressed tumor immune microenvironment as a key mechanism in the pathogenesis of PCNSL. Small molecules and novel agents targeting these aberrant pathways have been introduced into clinical trials targeting the recurrent or refractory PCNSL patient population. Agents like the Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor ibrutinib or immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) like pomalidomide and lenalidomide have shown promising high response rates in the salvage setting. Here, we give an overview about the recent, exciting developments in PCNSL and summarize the results of clinical trials using novel agents in the recurrent and refractory salvage setting, which include immune checkpoint inhibitors, IMiDs, as well as BTK, phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase, and mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors.
