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: CD20×CD3 bispecific antibodies are associated with acute immune-effector toxicities and infections, but drug-specific postmarketing co-reporting and report-level onset patterns remain incompletely characterized in B-cell lymphoma. Methods: We performed a label-anchored FAERS pharmacovigilance analysis with descriptive JADER contextualization. Deduplicated FAERS reports from 2022 Q4 through 2026 Q1 were restricted to primary-suspect epcoritamab, glofitamab, or mosunetuzumab reports in B-cell lymphoma, yielding 2,879 exposed reports. Prespecified MedDRA endpoints were evaluated against a disease-restricted comparator. Primary adjusted reporting odds ratios (aRORs) accounted for demographics, disease subgroup, reporting region, and calendar year. We mapped report-level phenotype intersections, summarized time to onset (TTO), and performed model-specification, restriction, comparator-exclusion, and TTO-completeness analyses. Results: The cohort included 1,463 epcoritamab, 944 glofitamab, and 472 mosunetuzumab reports. CRS had higher primary adjusted reporting odds for epcoritamab (aROR 4.70, 95% CI 4.15 to 5.32), glofitamab (3.43, 2.94 to 4.00), and mosunetuzumab (6.23, 4.97 to 7.81). ICANS had higher reporting odds for epcoritamab (2.28, 1.87 to 2.80); the glofitamab estimate crossed 1 in the primary model (1.26, 0.93 to 1.70) and varied with covariate specification, while mosunetuzumab ICANS was sparse. Epcoritamab had higher reporting odds for CMV (4.54, 3.66 to 5.62) and narrow opportunistic infection (2.20, 1.84 to 2.63). Mosunetuzumab had higher reporting odds for pneumonia/lower respiratory infection (1.74, 1.32 to 2.31) and COVID-19 (1.66, 1.25 to 2.21), although these infection-specific patterns attenuated in some geographic and calendar restrictions. Immune-effector and infectious phenotypes co-occurred in reports containing serious outcomes. TTO was calculable for 33.7%-61.2% of reports and suggested earlier CRS than infection-associated reporting, but report characteristics differed by TTO completeness. Conclusions: CRS was the clearest shared reporting pattern across the three CD20×CD3 antibodies. Neurotoxicity and infection-associated findings were more drug- and analysis-dependent. Report-level co-reporting supports concurrent consideration of inflammatory toxicity and infection when presentations overlap, while later infection-associated TTO distributions support continued awareness beyond step-up dosing. Spontaneous-reporting data cannot estimate incidence, causality, or comparative treatment risk.
