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

The phase II study of tirabrutinib monotherapy at a daily dose of 480 mg under fasting conditions for treatment-naïve and relapsed/refractory Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (ONO-4059-05 study) demonstrated a promising efficacy and tolerable safety profile. We conducted an unplanned analysis with a median follow-up of 24.8 months to update the efficacy and safety results and to report patient-reported quality of life. Of 27 enrolled patients, 22 patients continued receiving the study drug. The major response assessed by an independent review committee was observed in 25 patients (93%), including one and five patients who newly achieved complete response and very good partial response, respectively, after the primary analysis. The progression-free and overall survival rates at 24 months were 92.6% and 100%, respectively. Serum IgM levels in all patients except one declined and were maintained at low levels, although transient increases occurred after temporal interruption of the study drug. The disease-related symptoms including recurrent fever and hyperviscosity mostly disappeared. Health-related quality of life, assessed by cancer-specific questionnaires, was mostly maintained. Grade 3-4 neutropenia, lymphopenia, and leukopenia were newly recognized in three, two, and one patient, respectively. Grade 3 treatment-related hypertriglyceridemia was also recognized. Nine patients experienced grade 1-2 bleeding events (33%), one patient experienced grade 2 treatment-related atrial fibrillation, and one patient experienced grade 1 treatment-related hypertension. Treatment-related skin adverse events were observed in 14 patients (52%). Taken together, tirabrutinib has durable efficacy with an acceptable safety profile for treatment-naïve and refractory/relapsed Waldenström's macroglobulinemia.
