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

The arterial occlusive events (AOEs) associated with ponatinib are dose-dependent. Although the phase II OPTIC trial showed that reducing the dose to 15 mg daily (QD) after achieving a response provided an optimal benefit-risk profile, this has not been adequately verified using plasma drug concentrations data. A 66-year-old woman with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) was switched to ponatinib because of nilotinib-induced grade 3 thrombocytopenia. For safety, ponatinib was initiated at 15 mg every other day (Q2D) and gradually increased to 45 mg QD. A major molecular response (MMR) was achieved 30.6 months after starting ponatinib. The dose was then reduced to 15 mg QD to mitigate cardiovascular risks, and the MMR was successfully sustained for approximately 2 years (21.2 months) at this reduced dose. The total overall observation period was more than 5 years (65.2 months). A strong correlation was observed between the ponatinib dose and plasma trough concentrations (R
