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

Introduction: Real-world data on teclistamab in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (R/R MM), particularly in elderly patients, remain limited. Methods: We analysed efficacy and safety outcomes in patients ≥ 75 years from the French Results: Elderly patients had fewer high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities and a longer disease history. Remarkably, teclistamab appeared more effective in this population, with 74% achieving at least a very good partial response, compared with 62% of younger patients. Median progression-free survival was 15.1 months in the elderly cohort versus 12.4 months in younger patients. Conclusion: This improved efficacy did not come at the cost of increased toxicity: adverse event rates were comparable, although older patients more frequently received prophylactic measures. These findings support teclistamab as a safe and effective therapeutic option for geriatric patients with R/R MM. Trial Registration: The authors have confirmed clinical trial registration is not needed for this submission.
