1. Is the biology right?

• Somatic driver evidence: no · None of CRBN, DDB1, CUL4A, CD79B, TUBB4B, TUBB1, CD19 has somatic-mutation evidence in prurigo nodularis

  Rule: Open Targets has somatic-mutation evidence for the target in this cancer. Source: Open Targets: CRBN in prurigo nodularis, 2026-11-11
• Human genetic evidence: no · No germline or somatic evidence for CRBN, DDB1, CUL4A, CD79B, TUBB4B, TUBB1, CD19 in prurigo nodularis

  Rule: Any germline or somatic human genetic evidence for the target in this cancer, counted apart from animal-model and literature evidence. Source: Open Targets: CRBN in prurigo nodularis, 2026-11-11
• Pediatric target: yes · CD79B, CD19 on the FDA list

  Rule: Target is on FDA's Pediatric Molecular Target List (relevant targets); membership alone neither requires nor waives a study. Source: FDA Pediatric Molecular Target List (Listed as February 2026 on the FDA Pediatric Oncology page; the file served is 9.7.22_the_relevant_molecular_target_list.xlsx, whose Summary of Changes sheet is headed 'SEPTEMBER 2022 UPDATE' (footnote date 2022-09-01)), 2026-11-11
• Haematologic cancer: yes · Haematologic

  Rule: From the indication, or the registry conditions when no indication matches. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04882163, 2026-11-11

  Published context: Likelihood of approval from phase 1: 7.5% haematologic vs 4.6% solid (BIO / Informa / QLS 2021, 2011–2020). Population-level, not a prediction.

• Background therapy: Rituximab, Lenalidomide: standard agents, not counted in these flags.

2. Can the result be trusted?

• Randomised: no · Non-randomised

  Rule: Registry allocation field. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04882163, 2026-11-11
• Small denominator: yes · 0 enrolled; each patient moves a rate by 100 ÷ 0 = – points

  Rule: Enrolment under 30; the arithmetic is shown, not a benchmark. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04882163, 2026-11-11
• Primary endpoint is overall survival: no · Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD); Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D); Best Overall Response Rate (ORR)

  Rule: A registered primary outcome measure names overall survival. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04882163, 2026-11-11

  Published context: Non-OS primary endpoint: odds ratio 2.79 for a positive phase 3 (Otsuka 2021, 400 phase 3 oncology trials, to 2020). Shown with the next figure: a surrogate is easier to hit, and often a weak guide to survival.

  Published context: 52% of surrogate-to-OS correlations are low (Prasad 2015, published to 2014). Shown with the figure above.
• Results overdue: no · Primary completion expected 2026-04-08; not yet due

  Rule: Primary completion (actual) more than 12 months ago and no results posted to the registry. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04882163, 2026-11-11
