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

Patients with relapsed or refractory (r/r) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have very poor long-term outcomes. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) can potentially cure some of these patients who are able to achieve a second or greater remission with salvage chemotherapy. Unfortunately, several barriers exist to transplantation and not all patients with r/r AML are able to proceed to allo-SCT. Therefore, novel therapies to decrease the risk of relapse in these patients are urgently needed. Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) protein has emerged as an encouraging vaccine target in AML due to its overexpression in leukemic blast cells and near absence in normal hematopoietic cells. Maintenance therapy with galinpepimut-S, a multivalent heteroclitic WT1 peptide vaccine, holds promise in early phase trials, in patients with AML by inducing a strong innate immune response against the WT1 antigen, leading to the design of this international, open-label, randomized clinical trial, named REGAL. Clinical trial registration: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04229979. The clinical trial identifier is NCT04229979.
