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

Clarithromycin is a macrolide antibiotic with anti-multiple myeloma (MM) activity when combined with dexamethasone and immunomodulatory agents. This phase 1/2 study of clarithromycin, ixazomib, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone (ClIPd) assessed tolerability and efficacy in relapsed/refractory MM. The primary end points were the maximal tolerated and recommended phase 2 dose. Key secondary end points were the overall response rate (ORR) (≥partial response), disease control rate (DCR) (≥stable disease), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). All 4 medications were given at full dose for 6 cycles. Pomalidomide, ixazomib, and dexamethasone were given at reduced doses with full-dose clarithromycin in subsequent maintenance cycles until unacceptable toxicity or progression. Clarithromycin was withheld during weeks 1 to 2 of cycle 1 to facilitate correlative studies. A total of 28 patients were evaluable for response/survival. The ORR was 75%; DCR was 100%; 56% achieved ≥very good partial response (VGPR), whereas 14% achieved complete response (CR)/stringent CR. High-risk cytogenetics were not associated with ORR (Fisher exact test,
