Dose-reduced (24 Gy) involved-site radiotherapy combined with rituximab in early-stage non-gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma: a prospective phase II trial.
Trial report in Leukemia, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
While involved-site radiotherapy (ISRT) is the standard first-line treatment in localized non-gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, the cumulative risk of distant relapse poses a persistent clinical challenge. We conducted a prospective phase II trial evaluating rituximab with 24 Gy ISRT, aiming to reduce distant relapse and enhance long-term survival. By October 2025, 60 patients with early-stage non-gastric MALT lymphoma were enrolled. Among the per-protocol efficacy-evaluable cohort (n = 55), the combined immunoradiotherapy regimen achieved a complete response rate of 100%. At a median follow-up of 30.2 months, only one distant recurrence was observed (estimated 5-year distant recurrence: 1.9%). In the full analysis set, 2- and 4-year progression-free survival rates were 98.0% and 92.9%, respectively, improving to 100% and 94.4% in the per-protocol set. Treatment-related hematologic toxicity was frequent but manageable. Infections were reported in 23.3%, including one grade 4 respiratory infection that necessitated treatment discontinuation. Immunophenotypic profiling revealed that parotid, thyroid, or mediastinal involvement correlated with higher lymphocyte proportions (39.5% ± 16.4%, P = 0.012). Post-treatment immunologic changes featured near-complete B-cell depletion and a compensatory expansion of NK cells. Overall, the combined immunoradiotherapy regimen demonstrated durable disease control in localized non-gastric MALT lymphoma, with potential synergistic benefit from NK cell-mediated immune activation.
