Comprehensive assessment of DeVIC therapy for relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
Article in International journal of hematology, 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
Evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of DeVIC (dexamethasone, etoposide, ifosfamide, and carboplatin) therapy for relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (r/r DLBCL) is critically lacking. This retrospective study analyzed 78 patients with r/r DLBCL who received DeVIC therapy at a single institution. The overall response rate was 37.2%, comprising 21.8% complete and 15.4% partial responses. A total of 15 (19.2%) patients proceeded to transplantation or cellular therapy. The 3-year overall survival and progression-free survival were 28.2 and 18.0%, respectively. Multivariable analyses identified refractoriness to prior therapy and elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels as significant predictors of poor response and survival. Decision tree models confirmed these findings, revealing that relapsed cases with low LDH had the most favorable outcomes. Hematological toxicities were frequent, with febrile neutropenia in 52.6% and infection-related mortality in 3.8% of patients. Those with central nervous system involvement had a dismal prognosis, underscoring the need for novel therapeutic approaches. These findings highlight the potential role of DeVIC therapy in selected patients with r/r DLBCL and provide insights into optimizing bridging strategies and subsequent immunocellular therapies.
