A prospective, multicenter study on hematopoietic stemcell mobilization with cyclophosphamide plus granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and 'on-demand' plerixafor in multiple myeloma patients treated with novel agents.
Observational study in Haematologica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03406091 (Detection of Poor Mobilizer), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 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.

Abstract
High-dose melphalan plus autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a standard of care for transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM), and adequate hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) collection is crucial to ensure hematologic recovery after ASCT. In this prospective, observational study we evaluated HSC mobilization with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), cyclophosphamide, and 'on-demand' plerixafor (in patients with <20×106 CD34+ cells/L after at least 4 days of G-CSF or failing to collect ≥1×106 CD34+ cells/kg after the first apheresis) in NDMM patients treated with novel agent-based induction therapy. The primary endpoint was the rate of poor mobilizers (patients collecting <2×106 CD34+ cells/kg or requiring plerixafor rescue to reach an adequate HSC harvest). Secondary endpoints included the rate of patients collecting ≥2×106 CD34+ cells/kg after plerixafor administration and the identification of factors predicting mobilization failure or plerixafor need. Overall, 301 patients (median age 60 years) were enrolled. Two hundred and eighty-seven of 301 (95%) and 274 of 301 (93%) patients collected ≥2×106 and ≥4×106 CD34+ cells/kg, respectively, with a median of 9.9×106 CD34+ cells/kg collected. Poor mobilizers were 48 of 301 (16%): 34 of 301 (11%) required plerixafor rescue, and 14 of 301 (5%) failed HSC collection regardless of plerixafor. Thirty-four of 38 (90%) patients receiving plerixafor collected ≥2×106 CD34+ cells/kg. Bone marrow plasmacytosis at diagnosis >60% (odds ratio [OR]=4.14), lenalidomide use (OR=4.45), and grade 3-4 hematologic toxicities during induction (OR=3.53) were independently associated with a higher risk of mobilization failure or plerixafor need. Cyclophosphamide plus G-CSF and 'on-demand' plerixafor is an effective strategy in NDMM patients treated with novel agents, resulting in a high rate of HSC collection and high HSC yield (clinicaltrials gov. identifier: NCT03406091).
