SCRUM-Japan MONSTAR3 hematology cohort: a nationwide multi-omics integrated platform for next-generation precision medicine in hematologic malignancies.
Article in International journal of clinical oncology, 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
backgroundHematologic malignancies exhibit marked biological heterogeneity that is often insufficiently characterized by genomic profiling alone. Integrated multi-omics approaches are required to enable more accurate prognostic stratification, elucidate resistance mechanisms, and identify therapeutic vulnerabilities across lymphoma, leukemia, and plasma cell neoplasms.
methodsSCRUM-Japan MONSTAR3 is a nationwide, prospective, integrated multi-omics platform. The hematology cohort aims to enroll 400 patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies. Tumor specimens-including bone marrow aspirates/biopsies or lymph node tissues-are collected at diagnosis and at relapse. The multi-omics workflow encompasses whole-exome sequencing, whole-transcriptome sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, plasma proteomics, metabolomics, microbiome analysis, and tumor-informed measurable residual disease (MRD) monitoring. MRD is assessed using next-generation sequencing-based immunoglobulin heavy (IgH) and T-cell receptor (TCR) rearrangement analysis for lymphoid malignancies and whole-genome sequencing-based variant tracking for myeloid malignancies.
resultsPatient enrollment began in December 2024, followed by nationwide multicenter activation in November 2025. Multi-omics analyses have been implemented in a stepwise manner. Early operational indicators, including biospecimen acquisition, data quality control, and initiation of molecular assays, demonstrate the feasibility of coordinated nationwide deployment of this complex platform.
conclusionThe MONSTAR3 hematology cohort represents the first nationwide integrated multi-omics initiative dedicated to hematologic malignancies. Its large scale, standardized biospecimen framework, and capacity to incorporate emerging technologies provide a robust infrastructure for molecular stratification, longitudinal disease monitoring, and hypothesis-driven interventional research, thereby advancing clinically actionable precision hematology.
