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

abstractIn the phase 3 STARGLO trial, glofitamab plus gemcitabine-oxaliplatin (Glofit-GemOx) demonstrated superior overall survival (OS) vs rituximab plus GemOx (R-GemOx), in patients with autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT)-ineligible relapsed/refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). We present efficacy and safety from STARGLO, with 3 years of follow-up, including in clinically relevant subgroups. After a median OS follow-up of 35.1 months (data cutoff: 1 May 2025), Glofit-GemOx continued to demonstrate favorable outcomes vs R-GemOx, respectively: median OS, 25.5 vs 12.5 months (hazard ratio [HR], 0.60; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.4-0.8); median progression-free survival, 14.4 vs 3.3 months (HR, 0.41; 95% CI, 0.3-0.6); complete response rate, 58.5% vs 25.3%. Glofit-GemOx was particularly efficacious in the second-line (2L) vs third-line or later setting (3-year OS rate, 54.6% [95% CI, 45.2-64.0] vs 33.2% [95% CI, 21.2-45.3]). In the 2L setting, among patients with primary refractory disease or early treatment failure, the 36-month OS rate was 46.1% (95% CI, 35.2-56.9) with Glofit-GemOx vs 16.5% (95% CI, 3.4-29.6) with R-GemOx. Glofit-GemOx was favorable over R-GemOx regardless of patient age, with consistent efficacy observed across age categories, including in older patients (aged ≥75 years). No new safety signals were identified. With extended follow-up, fixed-duration Glofit-GemOx continues to demonstrate superior survival vs R-GemOx in ASCT-ineligible patients with R/R DLBCL, with favorable outcomes pronounced in the 2L setting, and consistent across subgroups including older patients and those with early relapsing disease. These data support Glofit-GemOx as an effective off-the-shelf treatment with curative potential in R/R DLBCL. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT04408638.
