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.

2 · The registry

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

Duvelisib, a small-molecule phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-δ,γ inhibitor, has shown efficacy for mycosis fungoides (MF) at dosage ranges of 25-100 mg twice daily (BID), but with significant toxicity. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients with advanced MF treated with low-dose duvelisib (15 mg every other day to BID), in an effort to minimize toxicity. A total of 7 patients were included. The overall response rate on duvelisib was 71%, with the remaining patients maintaining stable disease. Mean modified Severity Weighted Assessment Tool score improved by 57.4% and mean percent body surface area involved improved by 52%. Median progression-free survival was 10.3 months. Adverse events occurred in 4 of 7 patients, the most common being fatigue (2/7; grades 1-2), nausea (2/7; grades 1-2), and transaminitis (2/7; grade 3). Overall, low-dose duvelisib showed efficacy for advanced MF with less toxicity, providing a rationale for its use as monotherapy and potentially combinatorial therapy.
