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.

2 · The registry

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 a malignant hematological tumor characterized by the proliferation of clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow causing organ damage. Despite improved survival rates due to the increasing availability of therapeutic options in recent decades, it remains an incurable disease, with most patients ultimately relapsing. Consequently, relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma disease (RRMM) has become a treatment priority. Immunotherapy is the backbone of treatment in RRMM, starting with monoclonal antibodies such as elotuzumab, daratumumab, and isatuximab. The aim of this review is summarizing the results of RRMM trials with monoclonal antibodies and of the principal ongoing trials containing them. Additionally, we put a brief focus on novel drugs (such as bispecific antibodies) to provide a better overview. The advent of monoclonal antibodies has been nothing short of a game-changer for multi-refractory patients. It has opened up a whole new world of possibilities, offering myeloma patients a brighter and more hopeful future, even in the face of relapse.
