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 AND

aimsAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains the most common cause of death in adults with acute leukemia. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have shown significant clinical efficacy in defined patient subgroups. Real-world outcomes of AML patients undergoing TKI therapy have not been widely reported.

methodsIn this real-world retrospective study, we included 482 adult patients with AML treated with a TKI targeting FLT3, IDH1, or IDH2 from January 1, 2015, to December 31, 2023, in the countrywide Flatiron Health electronic health record-derived deidentified database. We utilized unadjusted Kaplan-Meier methods to calculate median real-world event-free survival (rwEFS) and overall survival (rwOS). We utilized a multivariable Cox regression model to evaluate characteristics associated with rwOS, modeling post-TKI stem cell transplant (SCT) as a time-varying covariate.

resultsThose who received treatment at 1L (first-line) and 2L+ (second-line and beyond) had similar length of TKI therapy (3.7 vs. 3.4 months), rwEFS (2.2 vs. 2.5 months), and rwOS (12.3 vs. 13.1 months), respectively. Among all patients, greater rwOS was associated with receiving pre-TKI SCT (p < 0.001), commercial insurance (vs. Medicaid; p = 0.035), younger age (p = 0.043), and favorable 2017 ELN risk classification (vs. adverse; p = 0.032). When restricted to patients treated with TKI at 2L+ without prior SCT, rwEFS were 1.4, 1.6, and 2.1 months by targetable mutation (IDH2, IDH1, and FLT3), and rwOS were 8.7, 15.4, and 9.5 months, respectively.

conclusionPatients treated with HMA plus TKI did not have significant differences compared to TKI alone. In this substantial, real-world cohort of AML patients receiving TKIs, clinical outcomes remained deficient irrespective of timing of TKI start, mutational target, and concurrent HMA.
