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

introductionCurrently, there are only a few avaailable treatment options for patients with relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML).

methodsWe conducted a single-center, phase 1 prospective study (ChiCTR2200065634) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chidamide, demethylating drugs (azacitidine), cytarabine, aclacinomycin, and G-CSF plus venetoclax (CDCAG-VEN) in patients with R/R AML. The previous CDCAG regimen was used as a historical control to compare its efficacy and safety. Thirty and 22 patients received one course of CDCAG with or without a 14-day course of venetoclax, respectively.

resultsThe overall response rate (ORR) was significantly higher in the CDCAG-VEN group than in the CDCAG-treated group (78.6% vs. 45.5%; p = 0.015), and the CDCAG-VEN group achieved a better trend of measurable residual disease-negative response (61.1% vs. 22.2%, p = 0.134). Compared with the CDCAG group, the CDCAG-VEN group exhibited significantly better 1-year overall survival (63.3% vs. 35.1%, p = 0.005) and progression-free survival (76.7% vs. 36.0%, p = 0.022). The duration of response was notably better in the CDCAG-VEN group than in the CDCAG group (71.2% vs. 34.3%, p = 0.021) and had a lower cumulative incidence of relapse (22.2% vs. 48.9%, p = 0.095). The neutrophil and platelet recovery times were similar between the CDCAG-VEN and CDCAG groups (neutrophil: 18 days vs. 19 days, p = 0.293; platelet: 18 days vs. 19 days, p = 0.311). The frequencies of adverse events were comparable between both groups, except for a lower incidence of thrombosis in the CDCAG-VEN group (0% vs. 22.7%, p = 0.006). DISCUSSION: In conclusion, venetoclax in combination with CDCAG is an effective and safe treatment regimen for R/R AML, thereby rapidly identifying chemosensitive patients and inducing measurable residual disease-negative remission in a high proportion of patients with R/R AML.
