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

CAR-T cell therapy has significantly improved outcomes for patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), but challenges such as limited resources, manufacturing timelines, and notable toxicities persist. Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs), including glofitamab and epcoritamab, have demonstrated promising efficacy and represent a new treatment option in patients who are unsuitable for or have relapsed following CAR-T therapy. Bispecific antibodies have a manageable safety profile and are generally more widely accessible than CAR-T cell therapy. Case discussions in this paper illustrate the potential real-world application of BsAbs, highlighting their role in treating patients who have relapsed after or are unable to undergo CAR-T cell therapy. Overall, glofitamab and epcoritamab represent valuable treatment options in the evolving landscape of R/R DLBCL.
