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

purpose of reviewDespite considerable advances in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) in the last decade, a significant number of patients still progress on current available therapies. Here, we review treatment modalities used to target BCMA in the treatment of MM, specifically antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), bispecific antibody constructs, and chimeric antibody receptor (CAR) modified T-cell therapies. We will provide an overview of therapies from these classes that have presented or published clinical data, as well as data on mechanisms of resistance to these novel agents. RECENT

findingsClinical trials exploring different BCMA-targeting modalities to treat multiple myeloma are underway and demonstrate promising results. In relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, anti-BCMA ADCs and bispecific antibody constructs are showing impressive efficacy with manageable side effect profiles. In parallel, adoptive cellular therapy has induced dramatic durable responses in multiply relapsed and refractory myeloma patients. Therapeutic approaches targeting BCMA hold significant potential in the management of multiple myeloma and will soon be incorporated in combination with current standard therapies to improve outcomes for patients with multiple myeloma. In addition, novel approaches are being evaluated to overcome resistance mechanisms to anti-BCMA therapies.
