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.

Abstract

backgroundBruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors have demonstrated a high degree of efficacy in the treatment of B cell malignancies characterized by constitutive B cell receptor activation, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL).

methodsThe efficacy and safety of zanubrutinib, an investigational highly selective BTK inhibitor, was evaluated in this single-arm, phase 2 study of Chinese patients with relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL. The primary endpoint was overall response rate as assessed by an independent review committee.

resultsOf the 91 evaluable patients, 77 (84.6%) achieved a response, with three (3.3%), 54 (59.3%), and 20 (22%) patients achieving a complete response, partial response, and partial response with lymphocytosis, respectively, after a median follow-up of 15.1 months. The estimated 12-month event-free rate for duration of response was 92.9%. The most commonly reported grade ≥ 3 adverse events (AEs) were neutropenia (44%), thrombocytopenia (15.4%), lung infection/pneumonia (13.2%), upper respiratory tract infection (9.9%), and anemia (8.8%). The 12-month overall survival rate was 96%. Eight (9.0%) patients discontinued zanubrutinib due to AEs, and seven (8.0%) patients required at least one dose reduction.

conclusionTreatment of patients with relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL with zanubrutinib was generally well tolerated and resulted in a high overall response rate, thereby conferring a favorable benefit-risk profile.
