Venetoclax combined with hypomethylating agents and the CAG regimen in relapsed/refractory AML: a single-center clinical trial.

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
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of venetoclax in combination with hypomethylating agents and CAG (VEN-DCAG) regimens in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML). Methods: The treatment response was analyzed by retrospective methods in R/R AML patients treated with the VEN-DCAG regimen at our institution. This included, but was not limited to, CR/CRi (complete remission/complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery) rate, measurable residual disease (MRD) negative rate, and overall survival (OS). Results: 20 patients with R/R AML were recruited, with a median age of 40 years (10-70), 11 of whom were male (55%), and a median follow-up of 10.4 months (0.7-21.8). The overall response rate (ORR) after receiving 1 course of VEN-DCAG was 90% (18/20), with 17 (85%) CR/CRi (10 MRD-CR), 1 (5%) PR, and 2 (10%) NR. Subsequently, 12 patients (7 MRD-CR, 4 MRD+CR, 1 NR) were treated with the VEN-DCAG regimen, and 3 MRD+CR patients turned negative, and 13 patients finally achieved MRD-CR. Among them, 7 patients were in the relapse group, all achieving CR/CRi (6 MRD-CR), and 13 patients in the refractory group, with 10 CR/CRi (7 MRD-CR). The ORR for patients in the relapse and refractory groups was 100% (7/7) and 84.6% (11/13), respectively. Further, all patients experienced adverse events (AEs) of varying degrees of severity, with hematologic AEs primarily consisting of myelosuppression, while non-hematologic AEs were more common in the form of fever, gastrointestinal distress, and infections. 11 patients were followed up with bridging allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) therapy. At the last follow-up, 11 patients (7 MRD-CR, 4 MRD+CR) who received allo-HSCT, 1 (MRD+CR) died, and 9 patients (6 MRD-CR, 1 PR, 2 NR) who did not receive allo-HSCT, 5 (2 MRD-CR, 1 PR, 2 NR) died as well. Conclusion: The VEN-DCAG regimen may be an effective treatment option for R/R AML patients, with high ORR and MRD negative remission rates in both the relapsed and refractory groups. It is recommend that patients should be bridged to allo-HSCT as soon as possible after induction to CR by the VEN-DCAG regimen, which can lead to a significant long-term survival benefit.
