Combined Proteasome and Autophagy Inhibition in Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma-A Phase I Trial of Hydroxychloroquine, Carfilzomib, and Dexamethasone.

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
Multiple myeloma is characterized by malignant cells which produce high amounts of monoclonal immunoglobulin. Myeloma cells are, therefore, dependent on effective protein degradation. Proteasomal protein degradation is targeted by proteasome inhibitors in routine care. Autophagic protein degradation is currently not targeted in myeloma treatment. This Phase I trial showed that the combination of the proteasome inhibitor carfilzomib and the autophagy inhibitor hydroxychloroquine was well tolerated in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Adverse events were mostly Grades 1 and 2. An overall response rate of 44% indicates a meaningful clinical efficacy of this combination.
