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

B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) is a promising therapeutic target for multiple myeloma (MM). The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness and tolerability of monotherapy with the conjugated anti-BCMA monoclonal antibody belantamab mafodotin in triple-class refractory patients with MM in real-world practice. Patients refractory to at least one proteasome inhibitor, one immunomodulatory drug, and one anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody received belantamab mafodotin at 2.5 mg/kg intravenously every 3 weeks. Overall, 27 patients with a median age of 65 years (range 41-81) were included. Of these, 52% were male and the median number of prior lines of treatment was 5 (4-10). The overall response rate (partial response or better) was 52%, whereas the disease control rate (stable disease or better) was 70%. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 2 months (95%CI: 0-7), whereas the median PFS among the responders was 12 months (95%CI: 6-18). Regarding the toxicity profile, the most common toxicity was eye toxicity, in 44% of the patients. Keratopathy grade 2-3 was reported in 33.3% of the patients. In conclusion, belantamab mafodotin showed a safety and efficacy profile consistent with the results of the registrational study. Importantly, heavily pretreated patients who responded to treatment derived a substantial survival benefit.
