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

Belantamab mafodotin (belamaf) is a first-in-class anti-B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that recently gained regulatory approval for the treatment of relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients who have received at least four prior therapies including an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody (mAb), a proteasome inhibitor (PI), and an immunomodulatory drug (IMiD). As the first BCMA-targeted therapy to be approved in multiple myeloma along with its "off-the-shelf" outpatient administration, belamaf addresses a significant unmet need in RRMM that is refractory to IMiD, PI, and anti-CD38 mAb therapy, otherwise known as triple-class refractory myeloma. Belamaf is also associated with frequent corneal ocular adverse events, which represents a unique toxicity in multiple myeloma therapeutics, and its administration requires a multidisciplinary approach with oncologists and eye care specialists to safely and effectively manage patients on belamaf therapy. In this review, we discuss the preclinical and clinical data leading to the regulatory approval of belamaf, the monitoring and mitigation strategies of corneal ocular adverse events, and its current and future role in the RRMM treatment landscape.
