Outcomes for high-risk defining events in follicular lymphoma following frontline immunochemotherapy.
Article in Blood neoplasia, 2024. 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
Progression of follicular lymphoma (FL) or transformation (TFL) within 24 months of immunochemotherapy (ICT) represent high-risk defining events (HRDE) with poor overall survival (OS). We examined baseline clinical characteristics, imaging, and outcomes for patients experiencing HRDE with newly diagnosed FL requiring ICT. HRDE groups were: relapse or progression of FL within 24 months (FL24), early TFL (transformation <24 months of ICT), late TFL (transformation >24 months of ICT).433 patients were categorized as reference FL (Ref FL), n = 352 (no HRDE); FL24, n = 43; early TFL, n = 29; late TFL, n = 9. Chemotherapy included bendamustine (63%), CHOP (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, prednisone) (27%), or CVP (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone) (10%); 85% received rituximab/15% obinutuzumab and 48% received maintenance therapy. Compared with Ref FL group, OS from HRDE was inferior for FL24 (hazard ratio [HR], 3.93; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.14-7.23), early TFL (HR, 8.16; 95% CI, 4.38-15.2), and late TFL (HR, 8.23; 95% CI, 3.18-21.25). OS from HRDE was inferior for early TFL compared with FL24 (HR, 2.08; 95% CI, 1.02-4.21). In multivariable analysis, performance status, lactate dehydrogenase, beta-2-microglobulin and grade 3A were associated with early TFL. Clinical characteristics did not differentiate early TFL from FL24. Maximum standardized uptake value was higher in early TFL but not FL24 compared to Ref FL. Early TFL and FL24 represent different HRDEs and are associated with inferior OS. Distinguishing early TFL from FL24 is important for biomarker development, management and to develop and interpret trials in this area of unmet need.
