Long-term survival outcomes of allo-HCT in AML with fludarabine/melphalan conditioning and tacrolimus/sirolimus GVHD prophylaxis.
Article in Bone marrow transplantation, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is increasingly offered as a consolidation strategy for older/infirm patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Fludarabine/melphalan (Flu/Mel) conditioning is associated with effective disease control but results in significant toxicity and non-relapse mortality (NRM) when combined with calcineurin-inhibitors plus methotrexate or mycophenolate mofetil. Flu/Mel with alternative graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis may be better tolerated and result in superior outcomes in patients with AML. In this single-center retrospective analysis, we analyzed long-term outcomes of patients with AML (n = 342) who underwent allo-HCT with Flu/Mel conditioning and tacrolimus/sirolimus (Tac/Sir)-based GVHD prophylaxis from 2008-2019 at City of Hope. Patient median age was 63 years (range: 23-78), with 37% having high-very high Disease Risk Index (DRI) and 42% with HCT-Comorbidity Index (CI) ≥ 3. Five-year overall survival (OS: primary objective) was 55% (95% CI: 49-61%) among all patients and 70% (95% CI: 55-81%) in patients ≥70 years old. Only presence of active disease correlated with lower 5-year OS on multivariate analysis (HR = 1.95; p < .001). Five-year NRM was 24% (95% CI: 19-29%) among all patients and 21% (95% CI: 11-34%) in those ≥70 years old. In conclusion, Flu/Mel conditioning with Tac/Sir GVHD prophylaxis is associated with favorable OS and acceptable NRM, even in older/infirm patients with AML.
