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

This multicenter real-world study identifies critical determinants of outcome for tisagenlecleucel (tisa-cel) in treating post-HSCT relapse in 220 children/young adults with B-ALL from 31 European centers. Median follow-up was 30.0 months, with a 43.6% 2-year event-free survival (EFS), 67.2% overall-survival (OS), and 57.1% incidence of CAR-T failure. CAR-T for relapse after transplant from a matched sibling donor (MSD) compared to alternative donors was associated with lower 2-year-OS (MSD 59.1%, mismatched donor MMD 80.2%, matched family/unrelated donor MFD/MUD 68.3%, p = 0.046). Two-year incidence of CAR-T failure was highest for MSD (MSD 73.8%, MFD/MUD 49.7%, MMD 52.2%, p = 0.006). Patients who had relapsed early (< 6 months post HSCT) showed inferior 2-year-EFS (23.7%) and OS (47.2%) compared to patients with late relapse, ≥ 6 months after HSCT (EFS 49.8%, p = 0.001; OS 73.9%, p < 0.001). Early relapse was associated with a higher incidence of CAR-T failure and relapse after tisa-cel, particularly CD19+ relapses. Outcomes correlated with disease burden at lymphodepletion: 2-year-OS was 81.7% for MRD-, 69.2% for MRD+, and 55.2% for patients in non-remission (p = 0.003), with incidence of CAR-T failure highest in non-remission. Prior transplant from an MSD, early post-HSCT relapse, and disease burden at lymphodepletion identify patients at increased risk of CAR-T failure after HSCT.
