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

Background: Although prognostic significance of 1q21 chromosomal abnormalities (CAs) in multiple myeloma (MM) has been validated, the real world data (RWD) of its practical utilization in the clinical practice remain to be of interest. The aim of study was to analyze the prognostic significance of 1q21 CAs in the RWD settings of the routine clinical practice. Methods: The study included 328 newly diagnosed MM patients (NDMM, pts), diagnosed during the period 2018-2024. The distribution according to the second Revision of the International Staging System (R2-ISS) was 25.6%, 22.9%, 46.3% and 5.2% with scores 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. The 1q21 CAs, gain1q21 and amp1q21, were detected in 33.7% pts (gain1q21 in 12.4% pts, and amp1q21 in 21.3% pts). Patients were treated predominantly (238pts, 72.6%) with Bortezomib (Bz) plus immunomodulatory drugs (IMids) based triplets. Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) were performed in 87/114 potential transplant candidates (76.3%). Results: The overall response rate (ORR ≥PR) was achieved in 86.3% of the patients, regardless of the findings of gain 1q21 (p=0.113) or amp1q21 (p=0.757) in comparison to the patients without 1q21 CAs. Patients without 1q21 CAs had significantly longer progression-free survival in comparison to the patients with gain 1q21 or amp1q21 (PFS, p=0.000). The overall survival of the patients with amp1q21 was significantly shorter in comparison to the patients with gain1q21 or those without 1q21 CAs (OS, p=0.043). Conclusion: Presence of the 1q21 CAs retains clear impact on the course of disease in MM patients outside of clinical trials. As a part of validated prognostic indices, finding of 1q21 CAs represents valuable prognostic biomarker, which may contribute in bringing up treatment choice, especially in the circumstances of limited accessibility to the new treatment modalities.
