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.

Abstract

In the phase 4 BYOND trial, patients with pretreated chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) received bosutinib (starting dose: 500 mg/day). Efficacy and safety after ≥3 years of follow-up in 156 patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic phase CML by age and Charlson Comorbidity Index scores (without the age component; mCCI) is reported. Cumulative major molecular response rates at any time on treatment were 73.6%, 64.5%, and 74.1% in patients <65, 65-74, and ≥75 years of age, and 77.9%, 63.0%, and 59.3% in patients with mCCI scores 2, 3, and ≥4, respectively. Patients <65, 65-74, and ≥75 years of age experienced grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) at rates of 74.7%, 78.8%, and 96.4% and permanent discontinuations due to AEs at rates of 22.1%, 39.4%, and 46.4%, respectively. In patients with mCCI 2, 3, and ≥4, respective rates of grade 3/4 TEAEs were 77.8%, 77.8%, and 86.7%, and permanent discontinuations due to AEs were 25.3%, 33.3%, and 43.3%. In conclusion, a substantial proportion of patients maintained/achieved cytogenetic and molecular responses across age groups and mCCI scores. Older patients (≥75 years) and those with high comorbidity burden (mCCI ≥4) may require more careful monitoring due to the increased risk of TEAEs. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02228382.
