Association of PET4 response with outcomes of BV-CHP vs CHOP in the ECHELON-2 trial in CD30+ peripheral T-cell lymphoma.
Trial report in Blood advances, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01777152 (A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase 3 Study of Brentuximab Vedotin and CHP), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
abstractIn the phase 3 ECHELON-2 trial, brentuximab vedotin, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (BV-CHP) significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) in patients with CD30+ peripheral T-cell lymphoma, benefits that were maintained at 5 years. Interim positron emission tomography (PET) scan can be used to assess prognosis and risk-stratify patients. The prognostic value of interim PET was assessed in this post hoc exploratory analysis from ECHELON-2, evaluating interim 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET scans after cycle 4 (PET4) and end-of-treatment-based response, and correlated with PFS per investigator and OS. PET4 response was determined by Deauville score (scores of 1-3 were considered negative [PET4-negative] and 4-5 positive [PET4-positive]) by independent review. Overall, 452 patients were randomized 1:1 to the BV-CHP (n = 226) and CHOP (n = 226) arms. Of these, 32 in the BV-CHP arm and 41 in the CHOP arm were not evaluable for PET4. In both arms, PET4-negative status was associated with improved PFS (BV-CHP: HR, 0.36; 95% CI, 0.19-0.66; CHOP: HR, 0.26; 95% CI, 0.17-0.41) and OS (BV-CHP: HR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.18-0.78; CHOP: HR, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.14-0.41) compared with PET4-positive status. Among patients with systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma, PET4-negative patients had improved PFS (BV-CHP: HR, 0.28; 95% CI, 0.14-0.60; CHOP: HR, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.17-0.56) and OS (BV-CHP: HR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.16-0.94; CHOP: HR, 0.25; 95% CI, 0.12-0.55) compared with PET4-positive patients. In this exploratory analysis, PET4-negative status by Deauville score was associated with improved long-term PFS and OS in both the BV-CHP and CHOP arms. This trial was registered at www.ClinicalTrials.gov as #NCT01777152.
