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

Venetoclax (Ven), a BCL-2 inhibitor, has demonstrated efficacy in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) harboring a t(11;14) and/or elevated BCL-2 expression. However, data from clinical trial remain inconclusive. This retrospective study evaluated the efficacy and safety of Ven-based therapies in 232 MM patients without concurrent AL amyloidosis treated at Mayo Clinic sites between Jan 2015 and Dec 2023. The median age was 62 years, with a median of 3 prior lines of therapy. Among the cohort, 82% had t(11;14), and elevated BCL-2 expression was identified in 17 of 18 non-t(11;14) patients tested. Ven combinations included Ven-Dex (VenD; 48.3%), Proteasome Inhibitor-Ven (30.2%), and Daratumumab-Ven (19%) with other combinations making up the rest. The overall response rate was 57%; 64% for t(11;14) patients and 26% for non-t(11;14) patients. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 9.4 months overall; 11.8 months for t(11;14) patients and 2.9 months for those without (p < 0.001). Among t(11;14) patients, the presence of del(17p) or 1q gain/amplification significantly reduced PFS to 7.7 months. Venetoclax-based regimens remain an important option for t(11;14) patients, but efficacy is limited in patients without a t(11;14). The presence of secondary high-risk cytogenetics imparts an inferior PFS.
