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

abstractCPX-351, a novel liposomal formulation of cytarabine and daunorubicin, represents the standard of care in fit patients with acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC) and therapy-related AML (t-AML). Considering its better safety profile than conventional intensive chemotherapy, we investigated its cost-to-benefit ratio, in terms of overall survival and of mortality, in a large multicentric series of AML-MRC and t-AML receiving CPX-351 outside clinical trials between 2019 and 2022. Patients were classified as fit or unfit for intensive chemotherapy through a comprehensive evaluation of age, comorbidities, and performance status by adopting Italian Society of Hematology/Italian Society of Experimental Hematology/Gruppo Italiano per il Trapianto di Midollo Osseo (SIE/SIES/GITMO) criteria. Disease risk was defined according to the European LeukemiaNet 2017 classification. Before treatment start, 328 of 403 (81.4%) patients were classified as fit and 75 of 403 (18.6%) as unfit. Three hundred and ninety-six had a full genetic/cytogenetic profile, with 17 (4%) being categorized as favorable risk, 162 (41%) intermediate risk, and 217 (55%) adverse risk according to European LeukemiaNet 2017. After induction, 230 of 403 (57.1%) patients achieved complete remission, with no differences between fit (57.3%) and unfit (56%) patients. However, the 2 groups significantly differed in terms of survival (median overall survival, 18 months vs 8 months for fit and unfit patients, respectively) and of 28- and 100-day mortality (4.6% vs 10.7% at 28 days and 14.3% vs 32% at 100 days for fit and unfit patients, respectively). In conclusion, the SIE/SIES/GITMO criteria distinguished patient subgroups with different short- and long-term outcomes after treatment with CPX-351. The update or design of dedicated fitness criteria could represent a future and valid strategy to optimize the use of this specific treatment.
