Treatment and comparator

Intervention: Tafasitamab + lenalidomide up to 12 cycles, then tafasitamab maintenance.

Comparator: No randomized comparator.

Endpoints

ORR primary.

Key efficacy and clinical outcomes

5-y report: ORR 57.5%, CR 40%; median PFS 11.6 mo, OS 33.5 mo; median DOR not reached.

Median survival and hazard ratios are not fixed-time event risks; NNT is not inferred from them.

Toxicity and treatment burden

Cytopenias, infections, fatigue and infusion reactions; neutropenia and thrombocytopenia require monitoring.

Absolute effect and NNT/NNH

Single-arm selected population; cannot compare directly with CAR-T or randomized second-line strategies.

NNT/NNH is not calculated unless a directly reported, comparable fixed-time risk difference supports it. Median survival and hazard ratios alone do not provide an NNT.

Critical interpretation and limitations

Single-arm selected population; cannot compare directly with CAR-T or randomized second-line strategies.

Current-practice context

Review date: 9 November 2026. Primary publication and selected follow-up sources were reviewed. Full disease-specific guideline, regulatory-label and sequencing audit remains pending; verify current local recommendations and biomarker eligibility before clinical application.
