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

A hallmark of cancer biology is resistance to apoptosis. BCL-2 is an anti-apoptotic molecule that is being overexpressed in several myeloid diseases, such as acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes, but also in several lymphoid cancers, such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphomas and multiple myeloma. Venetoclax (VEN) is a BCL-2 small molecule inhibitor. Data about its structure, biochemical characteristics and in vitro efficacy against several blood cancer cell lines were first reported in 2013. Shortly after, the first clinical trials reported that single-agent VEN provides no long-term survival benefits. In contrast, when used in combination, VEN led to significantly improved outcomes and eventually to its first US FDA approvals in 2018. As the modern approach to treating hematological malignancies are the chemotherapy-free regimen, in the current manuscript, we provide a comprehensive view on all available therapies that are considered to be chemotherapy-free, with a special emphasis on acute myeloid leukemia (AML), where phase I-III clinical trials have provided the most data.
