Case Report: Rapid renal response to venetoclax monotherapy in a CLL patient with secondary membranous glomerulonephritis.

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
Membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) is a rare extra-hematological autoimmune complication of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), clinically characterized by nephrotic-range proteinuria and, less frequently, renal failure. Because of the rarity of this condition, there is no standardized treatment. Chlorambucil and fludarabine-based regimens, possibly combined with rituximab, have been historically the most frequent therapeutic approaches, with renal response obtained in about two-third of the patients. However, responses are often transient and partial. Here we describe the first patient with rituximab-refractory, CLL-related MGN successfully treated with the Bcl-2 antagonist venetoclax. Nephrotic syndrome resolved as soon as three months after venetoclax initiation, with no unexpected toxicities. At the last follow-up, 17 months after venetoclax start, renal response persists, with proteinuria below 0.5 g/24 hours. This case suggests that targeted agents, particularly Bcl-2 antagonists, might be suitable options for patients with renal autoimmune disorders arising in the context of CLL.
