Epigenetic Plasticity Drives Carcinogenesis and Multi-Therapy Resistance in Multiple Myeloma.
Article in Research square, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We demonstrate that carcinogenesis and multi-therapy resistance in multiple myeloma (MM)-a treatable yet incurable plasma cell malignancy-are driven by epigenetic dysregulation. In this new paradigm, genomic and cytogenetic events unlock epigenetic plasticity, reshaping MM cell biology to evade tumor microenvironment constraints and therapeutic pressure. These conclusions are derived from a newly assembled cohort of nearly 1,000 patients, spanning premalignant to late-stage refractory MM, comprehensively characterized at molecular and clinical levels. Our findings provide a unifying framework to explain inter-patient genomic heterogeneity and the emergence of therapy resistance in sequential samples without new genomic alterations. In conclusion, we propose targeting epigenetic plasticity-mediated plasma cell evasion as a promising therapeutic strategy in MM.
