Efficacy and Safety of Momelotinib in Myelofibrosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis With a Focus on Anemia Outcomes.
Article in Journal of hematology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Background: Myelofibrosis (MF) can be primary (PMF) or secondary (SMF), with PMF driven by Janus kinases-signal transducer and activator of transcription proteins (JAK-STAT) pathway activation due to Janus kinase 2 ( Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, including randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and clinical studies assessing momelotinib's efficacy and safety. Primary outcomes included spleen volume reduction (≥ 35%) and anemia response (transfusion independence). Secondary endpoints included symptom burden reduction and safety. Results: Six studies, including three RCTs, met inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis showed momelotinib was noninferior to ruxolitinib in spleen volume reduction but superior in anemia benefits, increasing transfusion independence (odds ratio (OR): 2.09; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.53 - 2.85) and reducing transfusion dependence (OR: 0.62; 95% CI: 0.45 - 0.84). Symptom burden reduction was comparable to other JAK inhibitors. Common adverse events included dizziness (OR: 1.70; 95% CI: 1.05 - 2.74) and nausea (OR: 3.07; 95% CI: 1.82 - 5.18), with no significant increase in serious adverse events. Conclusions: Momelotinib improved anemia-related outcomes and quality of life in MF without increased adverse events. However, heterogeneity in control groups limited direct efficacy comparisons. Larger studies are needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety.
