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.

Abstract

To evaluate the real-world efficacy and safety of ponatinib, we conducted a multicenter, prospective post-marketing surveillance study in patients with chronic phase (CP), accelerated phase (AP), or blast phase (BP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) or Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph + ALL), who were resistant or intolerant to prior tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) or harbored the T315I mutation. A total of 148 patients were enrolled across 24 sites: 115 with CML (92 CP-CML, 12 AP-CML, 11 BP-CML) and 33 with Ph + ALL. Ponatinib was administered as third-line therapy in 70 patients (47.3%), and 127 (85.8%) initiated treatment at 45 mg once daily. Sixty-three patients (42.6%) began ponatinib due to resistance or intolerance to prior TKIs. In CP-CML, the overall major molecular response (MMR) rate was 43.2% (35/81), with a cumulative MMR incidence of 23.9% at week 24 among patients without prior MMR. In Ph + ALL, the overall MMR and complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) rates were 82.4% (14/17) and 75.0% (3/4), respectively. CP-CML patients receiving ponatinib as earlier-line therapy achieved higher MR4.5 rates than those treated later (47.4% vs. 16.1%, p = 0.011). The most common adverse drug reactions were rash (21.6%, 32/148), hypertension (12.2%, 18/148), and pyrexia (10.1%, 15/148); two vascular occlusive events occurred. Ponatinib showed favorable real-world efficacy and manageable safety in Korean patients. Early, high-dose therapy suggests a trend toward deep molecular responses, supporting its clinical benefit in real-world practice.
