A Higher Neutrophil Count Is Associated with Favorable Achievement of Treatment-Free Remission in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Who Received Second Generation Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor as Frontline Treatment.

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
backgroundABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor discontinuation securely became among the therapeutic goal for chronic myeloid leukemia chronic phase patients (CML-CP). To establish successful prognostic factors for treatment-free remission (TFR), it is necessary to diagnose the patients with high-risk molecular relapse, however, a biomarker for the achievement of TFR has not been completely elucidated. Recent investigations have determined that neutrophils function crucially in cancer immunology. PATIENTS AND
methodsThe research was a multicenter retrospective observational study to examine the correlation between TFR and neutrophil counts before TKI discontinuation. The investigation included patients having Philadelphia chromosome-positive CML-CP who attempted the discontinuation of TKIs after a durable deep molecular response between January 2012 and July 2021 at four institutions in Japan.
results118 CML-CP patients in total discontinued TKIs and an estimated 36-month TFR rate was 65.1%. 52 patients received second-generation TKIs as frontline. Higher neutrophil count (>3210/μL) at TKIs discontinuation was determined as an independent prognostic variable for TFR in patients who received second-generation TKIs as frontline [(HR, 0.235 (95%, confidence interval (CI) 0.078-0.711);
conclusionsThe neutrophil-mediated immunomodulation can be a significant component for the effective achievement of TFR in CML supported by our clinical observation.
