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

Indolent lymphoma, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) and follicular lymphoma (FL), can undergo histological transformation into an aggressive subtype, typically diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The prognosis of transformed lymphoma is poor. In this study, we reported the efficacy and toxicity of a combination of venetoclax, dose-adjusted rituximab or obinutuzumab, etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (VR-DA-EPOCH or VG-DA-EPOCH) in 11 patients with biopsy-proven histology transformation into DLBCL, including 8 patients with RT and 3 with transformed FL (tFL). The study was conducted between October 2019 and March 2023 at our single center. The median age of participants at enrolment was 53 years. Six patients (85.7%, 6/7) achieved complete remission (CR) at the end of treatment. The best overall response rate (ORR) and CR rate were both 72.7%, respectively. Two patients received autologous hemopoietic stem cell transplant (ASCT) while two patients received ASCT concurrently with CAR-T therapy for consolidation. With a median follow-up of 13.5 (range, 2.4-29.8) months after enrollment, the median event-free survival, progression-free survival, and overall survival were 9.4, 11.5, and 17.5 months, respectively. Hematologic toxicities of grade ≥3 consisted of neutropenia (90.9%, 10/11), thrombocytopenia (63.6%, 7/11), and febrile neutropenia (54.5%, 6/11). In conclusion, VR-DA-EPOCH or VG-DA-EPOCH was a promising strategy to achieve an early remission, bridging to cellular therapy within this population.
