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

purpose of reviewWaldenström macroglobulinemia is a rare non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) characterized by lymphoplasmacytic bone marrow infiltration associated with an immunoglobulin M (IgM) monoclonal gammopathy. Over the past two decades, a number of important novel therapies have emerged for the treatment of relapsed and refractory (R/R) WM. The purpose of this review is to discuss these novel agents. RECENT

findingsChemoimmunotherapy which formed the basis treatment for R/R WM is slowly being replaced by novel targeted agents. These therapies, including Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors, proteasome inhibitors, and B-cell lymphoma 2 inhibitors, have widened the landscape of management. Emerging therapies currently under investigation, such as bispecific T-cell engagers, chimeric antigen T-cell receptor therapy, and novel small molecule inhibitors, have additionally shown the potential to improve response and survival. The treatment of R/R WM has greatly evolved, in large part due to a greater understanding of the biology of WM, and the evaluation of novel targeted agents in the basket trials of NHL, showing early activity in the small WM cohorts. Combination regimens with these established and emerging novel therapies have the potential to further improve disease control and induce higher rates of deep responses. Strategies aimed at altering the disease trajectory would require randomized controlled trials to provide relevant data on optimal integration and sequencing of more effective and tolerable regimens earlier in the disease course.
