Effect of delayed cell infusion in patients with large B-cell lymphoma treated with chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy.
Article in Haematologica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
Complications occurring after lymphodepleting chemotherapy (LDC) may delay chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell infusion. The effect of these delays on clinical outcomes is unclear. We performed a retrospective analysis of 240 patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma treated with standard-of-care axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) and identified 40 patients (16.7%) who had delay in axi-cel infusion. Of these, 85% had delay due to infection. At time of LDC initiation, patients with delayed infusion had lower absolute neutrophil count (P=0.006), lower platelets (P=0.004), lower hemoglobin (P<0.001) and higher C-reactive protein (P=0.001) than those with on-time infusion. Patients with delayed infusion had lower day 30 overall response rates (59.0% vs. 79.4%; P=0.008) and shorter median progression-free survival (PFS) (3.5 vs. 8.2 months; P=0.002) and overall survival (7.8 vs. 26.4 months; P=0.046) than those with on-time infusion. The association with PFS was maintained on multivariate analysis. There was also an association between extent of delay and survival, with shorter median PFS in patients who had delays of 2-5 days (1.8 vs. 8.2 months; P=0.001) and >5 days (4.6 vs. 8.2 months; P=0.036), but not 1 day (5.7 vs. 8.2 months; P=0.238). Following propensity score matching, patients with delayed infusion continued to have shorter median PFS (3.5 vs. 6.0 months; P=0.015). Levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines on day of infusion were significantly higher in patients with delayed infusion. Together, these findings suggest that delays in CAR T-cell administration after initiation of LDC are associated with inferior outcomes. Further studies are needed to guide strategies to improve efficacy in such patients.
