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.

Abstract

Autologous hematopoietic cell transplants (auto-HCTs) remain the standard of care for transplant-eligible MM patients. The general practice has been to undergo upfront apheresis following induction to collect sufficient number of CD34+ cells to facilitate two auto-HCTs. However, 5-30% of MM patients do not initially mobilise a sufficient number of hematopoietic stem cells and are classified as poor mobilizers (PM). We compared the baseline characteristics and outcomes of 61 PMs and 816 non-PM patients who underwent a second auto-HCT and who were enrolled in the non-interventional CALM study (NCT01362972). Only patients who collected CD34+ prior to auto-HCT1 were included. Auto-HCT2 comprised both tandem and salvage transplants. PMs were re-mobilized with plerixafor (n = 24, 39.3%) or non-plerixafor-based regimens (n = 37, 60.7%). There were no significant differences in engraftment, progression-free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS) after the second auto-HCT between PM and non-PM patients. There was a trend to shorter PFS in PM patients undergoing salvage auto-HCT (median 9.6 vs. 12.9 months; p = 0.08) but no significant difference in OS. The median OS was 41.1 months for PM and 41.2 months for non-PM patients (p = 0.86). These data suggest that salvage mobilization is effective and does not affect overall outcomes after a second auto-HCT.
