Glasdegib: First Global Approval.
Review in Drugs, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 39 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Glasdegib (DAURISMO™) is an oral inhibitor of the Hedgehog signalling pathway, the activation of which is associated with a number of malignancies. It has been developed by Pfizer and was approved in November 2018 in the USA for use in combination with low-dose cytarabine for the treatment of newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in patients aged ≥ 75 years or those who have comorbidities that preclude use of intensive induction chemotherapy. Glasdegib is the first Hedgehog pathway inhibitor to be approved for AML in the USA. It received orphan designation for the treatment of AML in the USA in June 2017 and in the EU in October 2017, and for the treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in the USA in October 2017. It is also undergoing clinical development for use in select haematological and other malignancies, including MDS, in various countries worldwide. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of glasdegib leading to its use in combination with low-dose cytarabine for the treatment of newly-diagnosed AML in patients aged ≥ 75 years or those who have comorbidities that preclude use of intensive induction chemotherapy.
