Ruxolitinib for steroid-refractory chronic graft-versus-host disease: Japanese subgroup analysis of REACH3 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 1 paper.
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
Ruxolitinib, a Janus kinase (JAK1-JAK2) inhibitor, has demonstrated safety and efficacy in patients with graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). This phase 3 randomized trial (REACH3) evaluated the efficacy and the safety of ruxolitinib 10 mg twice daily compared with investigator-selected best available therapy (BAT) in a subgroup of Japanese patients (n = 37) with steroid-refractory or dependent (SR/D) chronic GvHD. At data cut-off, treatment was ongoing in 17 patients and discontinued in 20. The overall response rate (complete or partial) at week 24 was greater with ruxolitinib than BAT (50% vs. 20%; odds ratio, 4.13 [95% CI, 0.90-18.9]). The best overall response rate (complete or partial response at any time point up to week 24) was higher with ruxolitinib than BAT (68.2% vs. 46.7%; odds ratio, 2.69 [95% CI, 0.66-10.9]). Ruxolitinib led to longer median failure-free survival than BAT (18.6 months vs. 3.7 months; hazard ratio, 0.34; [95% CI, 0.14-0.85]). The most common grade ≥ 3 adverse events up to week 24 were anemia (ruxolitinib: 22.7%; BAT: 6.7%) and pneumonia (22.7% and 20.0%, respectively). Ruxolitinib showed a higher response rate and improvement in failure-free survival in Japanese patients with SR/D chronic GvHD, with a safety profile consistent with the overall study population.
