Elranatamab in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma patients on hemodialysis: A real-world case series.
Review in Clinical hematology international, 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
Background: Renal impairment is a frequent and adverse prognostic factor in multiple myeloma (MM), with dialysis-dependent patients largely excluded from pivotal trials of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-directed therapies. Elranatamab, a BCMA×CD3 bispecific antibody, has demonstrated significant efficacy in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM); however, data in end-stage renal disease are extremely limited. We report real-world outcomes of four dialysis-dependent RRMM patients treated with elranatamab. Results: Patients with a median age of 67 years (range 61-80) had received a median of six prior lines of therapy (range 4-7). All were refractory to proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, and anti-CD38 therapy, and none had prior BCMA-directed treatment. Baseline glomerular filtration rate ranged from 5 to 20 mL/min, and all patients were dialysis-dependent. At data cutoff, all four patients were evaluable for response. Two patients achieved complete response (CR), one achieved very good partial response, and one achieved partial response, resulting in an overall response rate of 100%. Treatment was ongoing in all four patients. Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) occurred in one patient (grade 1) and was self-limited. No immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) events were observed. One patient developed severe pneumonia requiring intensive care unit admission; treatment was temporarily interrupted and successfully resumed without step-up dosing, maintaining CR. Hematologic toxicity was limited, with grade-4 lymphopenia in one patient. No dialysis-related complications or unexpected toxicities were observed. All patients received infection prophylaxis after hemodialysis, including trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, valacyclovir, and levofloxacin, with intravenous immunoglobulin administered. Conclusion: In this real-world case series of dialysis-dependent RRMM patients, elranatamab demonstrated high response rates, low incidence of CRS, absence of neurotoxicity, and manageable infectious complications. These findings support the feasibility and clinical activity of elranatamab in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Larger prospective studies are warranted to confirm these encouraging results.
