Asciminib in Patients With CML-CP Previously Treated With ≥ 2 Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors: 96-Week Results From the Japanese Subgroup Analysis of the ASCEMBL Study.
Trial report in International journal of hematology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Asciminib is a first-in-class BCR::ABL1 inhibitor that Specifically Targets the ABL1 Myristoyl Pocket (STAMP). It is approved worldwide and in Japan for chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) with resistance or intolerance to previous tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. In the Phase 3 ASCEMBL study, patients with CML-CP who received ≥ 2 prior ATP-competitive TKIs were randomized (2:1) to asciminib 40 mg twice-daily or bosutinib 500 mg once-daily. Here, we report the 96-week results of the subgroup analysis of Japanese patients (asciminib, n = 13; bosutinib, n = 3) in the ASCEMBL study. The MMR rate at Week 96 was 46.2% in asciminib-treated patients, increasing from Weeks 24 and 48. Patients who achieved MMR at Week 24 remained in MMR up to the Week 96 cutoff. While a high proportion of patients treated with asciminib remained on treatment at cutoff, none randomized to bosutinib were on treatment at Week 96. Despite the longer duration of exposure to asciminib, its safety and tolerability continued to be favorable with no new or worsening safety findings. Overall, the efficacy and safety outcomes in the Japanese subgroup were comparable with the ASCEMBL global study population, which supports the use of asciminib in Japanese patients with previously treated CML-CP.
