Article in Haematologica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Inhibitors of anti-apoptotic BCL-2 family proteins in combination with chemotherapy and hypomethylating agents (HMA) are promising therapeutic approaches in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Alvocidib, a cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) inhibitor and indirect transcriptional repressor of the anti-apoptotic factor MCL-1, has previously shown clinical activity in AML. Availability of biomarkers for response to the alvocidib + 5-azacytidine (5-AZA) could also extend the rationale of this treatment concept to high-risk MDS. In this study, we performed a comprehensive in vitro assessment of alvocidib and 5-AZA effects in N=45 high-risk MDS patients. Our data revealed additive cytotoxic effects of the combination treatment. Mutational profiling of MDS samples identified ASXL1 mutations as predictors of response. Further, increased response rates were associated with higher gene expression of the pro-apoptotic factor NOXA in ASXL1-mutated samples. The higher sensitivity of ASXL1 mutant cells to the combination treatment was confirmed in vivo in ASXL1Y588X transgenic mice. Overall, our study demonstrated augmented activity for the alvocidib + 5-AZA combination in higher-risk MDS and identified ASXL1 mutations as a biomarker of response for potential stratification studies.
