Evolution of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw in patients with multiple myeloma and Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia: a retrospective multicentric study.

ABSTRACT: Bisphosphonates (BPs) are used intravenously to treat cancer-related conditions for the prevention of pathological fractures. Osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is a rare complication reported in 4-15% of patients. We studied, retrospectively, 55 patients with multiple myeloma or Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia followed up from different haematological departments who developed BRONJ. All patients were treated with BPs for bone lesions and/or fractures. The most common trigger for BRONJ was dental alveolar surgery. After a median observation of 26 months, no death caused by BRONJ complication was reported. In all, 51 patients were treated with antibiotic therapy, and in 6 patients, this was performed in association with surgical debridement of necrotic bone, in 16 with hyperbaric O(2) therapy/ozonotherapy and curettage and in 12 with sequestrectomy and O(2)/hyperbaric therapy. Complete response was observed in 20 cases, partial response in 21, unchanged in 9 and worsening in 3. The association of surgical treatment with antibiotic therapy seems to be more effective in eradicating the necrotic bone than antibiotic treatment alone. O(2) hyperbaric/ozonotherapy is a very effective treatment. The cumulative dosage of BPs is important for the evolution of BRONJ. Because the most common trigger for BRONJ was dental extractions, all patients, before BP treatment, must achieve an optimal periodontal health.

CYP2C8 gene polymorphism and bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw in patients with multiple myeloma.

Project description:Osteonecrosis of the jaw is an uncommon but potentially serious complication of bisphosphonate therapy in multiple myeloma. Previous studies showed that the presence of one or two minor alleles of the cytochrome P450, subfamily 2C polypeptide 8 gene (CYP2C8) polymorphism rs1934951 was an independent prognostic marker associated with development of osteonecrosis of the jaw in multiple myeloma patients treated with bisphosphonates. The aim of this study was to validate the frequency of SNP rs193451 in 79 patients with multiple myeloma. In 9 (22%) patients developing osteonecrosis of the jaw, a heterozygous genotype was found, in contrast with those who did not develop osteonecrosis of the jaw (n=4, 11%) or healthy individuals (n=6, 13%). We found no differences in the cumulative risk of developing osteonecrosis of the jaw between patients homozygous and heterozygous for the major allele. We were unable to confirm a significant association between this polymorphism and the risk of developing osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Altered Long Noncoding RNA Expression Profile in Multiple Myeloma Patients with Bisphosphonate-Induced Osteonecrosis of the Jaw.

Project description:Bisphosphonates (BPs) are inhibitors of osteoclast-mediated bone resorption used for the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) patients with osteolytic lesions. Bisphosphonate-induced osteonecrosis of the jaw (BONJ) is an infrequent drug-caused adverse event of these agents. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a set of more than 200 base pairs, noncoding RNA molecules, which are critical posttranscriptional regulators of gene expression. Our study was aimed at evaluating 17 lncRNAs, whose targets were previously validated as key elements in MM, bone metabolism, and angiogenesis in MM subjects without BONJ (MM group), in MM subjects with BONJ (BONJ group), and a group of healthy controls (CTRL group). Our results demonstrated a different lncRNA profile in BONJ patients compared to MM patients and controls. Two lncRNAs (DANCR and MALAT1) were both downregulated compared to controls and MM, twelve (HOTAIR, MEG3, TP73-AS1, HOTTIP, HIF1A-AS2, MANTIS, CTD-2201E18, CTD1-2003C8, R-471B22, RP1-43E13, RP11-553L6.5, and RP1-286D6) were overexpressed in MM with BONJ, and one (H19) was upregulated compared with only MM. Two lncRNAs (JHDMD1 and MTMR9LP) had higher expression, but these differences were not statistically significant. The examined lncRNAs target several genes and metabolic pathways. An altered lncRNA signature could contribute to the onset of BONJ or have a protective action. Targeting these lncRNAs could offer a possibility for the prevention or therapy of BONJ.

Bioinformatics analyses of differentially expressed genes associated with bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw in patients with multiple myeloma.

Project description:PURPOSE:This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanisms associated with bisphosphonate (BP)-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). METHODS:The gene expression profile GSE7116 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from eleven patients with ONJ resulting from MM treated with BPs (ONJBPs) and ten MM patients without ONJ treated with BPs (MMBPs) were analyzed. Gene ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analyses of DEGs were performed, followed by functional annotation and protein-protein interaction network construction. Finally, sub-network modules were constructed and analyzed. RESULTS:A total of 166 up- and 473 down-regulated DEGs were identified. The up-regulated DEGs were enriched in pathways related to cancer, and the down-regulated DEGs were enriched in pathways related to the immune system. Moreover, the GO terms enriched by the up-regulated DEGs were associated with misfolded proteins, and the down-regulated DEGs were associated with immune responses. After functional annotation, 16 transcription factors were identified, including X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1). In protein-protein interaction network analysis, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin 1, beta (IL1B) had higher connectivity degrees. Among the constructed sub-network modules, module 1 was the best one, and DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box helicase 5 (DDX5) was a hub gene. The DEGs in module 1 were mainly enriched in GO terms related to RNA splicing. CONCLUSION:DEGs of ONJ were mainly enriched in pathways related to the immune system and RNA splicing. DEGs such as TNF, ILB1, DDX5, and XBP1 may be the potential targets of ONJ treatment.

Atacicept in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma or active Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia: a phase I study.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Advanced multiple myeloma (MM) and Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) are incurable B-cell malignancies. This is the first full clinical report of atacicept, a fusion protein that binds to and neutralises the B-cell survival factors, B-lymphocyte stimulator (BLyS) and A proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), in MM and WM. METHODS: In this open-label phase-I study, 16 patients with advanced disease (12 MM, 4 WM) received one cycle of five once-weekly subcutaneous injections of atacicept (2, 4, 7 or 10 mg kg(-1)). Patients with stable disease after cycle 1 entered an extension study (either two additional cycles (2, 4 and 7 mg kg(-1) cohorts) or 15 consecutive weekly injections of atacicept 10 mg kg(-1)). RESULTS: Atacicept was well tolerated, systemically and locally; the maximum tolerated dose was not identified. Of 11 patients with MM who completed initial treatment, five patients were progression-free after cycle 1 and four patients were progression-free after extended therapy. Of four patients with WM, three patients were progression-free after cycle 1. Consistent with atacicept's mechanism of action, polyclonal immunoglobulin isotypes and total B cells were reduced. Bone-marrow density, myeloma cell numbers and plasma concentrations of soluble CD138 also decreased. CONCLUSION: Atacicept is well tolerated in patients with MM and WM, and shows clinical and biological activity consistent with its mechanism of action.

Salivary proteomics in bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Project description:ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to identify differentially expressed salivary proteins in bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) patients that could serve as biomarkers for BRONJ diagnosis.Subjects and methodsWhole saliva obtained from 20 BRONJ patients and 20 controls were pooled within groups. The samples were analyzed using iTRAQ-labeled two-dimensional liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.ResultsOverall, 1340 proteins were identified. Of these, biomarker candidates were selected based on P-value (<0.001), changes in protein expression (≥1.5-fold increase or decrease), and unique peptides identified (≥2). Three comparisons made between BRONJ and control patients identified 200 proteins to be differentially expressed in BRONJ patients. A majority of these proteins were predicted to have a role in drug metabolism and immunological and dermatological diseases. Of all the differentially expressed proteins, we selected metalloproteinase-9 and desmoplakin for further validation. Immunoassays confirmed increased expression of metalloproteinase-9 in individual saliva (P = 0.048) and serum samples (P = 0.05) of BRONJ patients. Desmoplakin was undetectable in saliva. However, desmoplakin levels tended to be lower in BRONJ serum than controls (P = 0.157).ConclusionsMultiple pathological reactions are involved in BRONJ development. One or more proteins identified by this study may prove to be useful biomarkers for BRONJ diagnosis. The role of metalloproteinase-9 and desmoplakin in BRONJ requires further investigation.

Quality of life implications of bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Project description:PurposePotentially debilitating, osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is an emerging complication of bisphosphonates. However, its effect on quality of life (QoL) is unknown. We determined the ONJ-related QoL decline in a cancer patient cohort.Patients and methodsThirty-four cancer patients with bisphosphonate-associated ONJ completed a telephone survey (October 2007 through May 2008). The Oral Health Impact Profile 14 (OHIP) retrospectively assessed participant oral health-related QoL before and after ONJ. Standardized ONJ descriptions were developed in a multidisciplinary, iterative process and were evaluated with three frequently used preference-based QoL measurement methods on a 0 (death) to 1 (perfect health) scale: Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Time Trade-Off (TTO), and EQ-5D.ResultsONJ significantly (p < .001) increased OHIP scores (worse QoL) for additive (3.56-16.53) and weighted (7.0-17.5) methods. Seven individual OHIP items significantly increased (Bonferroni correction p < .0035): pain, eating discomfort, self-consciousness, unsatisfactory diet, interrupted meals, irritability, and decreased life satisfaction. Mean preference-based QoL values significantly decreased (p < .001) with worsening ONJ stage (VAS, TTO, and EQ-5D): no ONJ (0.76, 0.86, 0.82), ONJ stage 1 (0.69, 0.82, 0.78), ONJ stage 2 (0.51, 0.67, 0.55), and ONJ stage 3 (0.37, 0.61, 0.32). As ONJ worsened, EQ-5D domain scores significantly increased (p < .001). Pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression contributed most to declining QoL.ConclusionsONJ significantly affects QoL, a detriment that increases with worsening ONJ. QoL impairments for ONJ stages 2 and 3 are similar to other treatment side effects that influence decision-making. Bisphosphonate-associated ONJ QoL is an important consideration for patients, clinicians, and policy makers.

Clinical, radiographic, and biomarker characterization of multiple myeloma patients with osteonecrosis of the jaw.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) has been reported in patients with a history of aminobisphosphonate use. METHODS: In order to define ONJ and gain insights into its pathophysiology, clinical, radiographic, biochemical, and microarray profiling studies were conducted in 11 patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and ONJ. RESULTS: Eleven patients between the ages of 57 and 81 yrs were treated with either pamidronate (n=3), zoledronate (n=4), or both agents sequentially (n=4) for a mean of 38.7 months. Radiographic studies demonstrated radiolucency and sclerosis on plain films. Functional imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) demonstrated a visual increase in glucose metabolism and mineralization at sites of ONJ, using fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) and sodium fluoride (NaF), respectively. Quantitative regional analysis confirmed an increased standardized uptake value (SUVmax) in areas of ONJ. The target to background ratio of SUVmax was significantly greater for NaF-PET than FDG-PET scans, suggesting that NaF-PET may provide superior image quality for identifying ONJ. Transcriptional profiling of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using the Affymetrix U133Plus 2.0 gene chip in all 11 MM patients compared with 10 age matched MM controls and 5 healthy volunteers demonstrated that genes involved in osteoblast and osteoclast signaling cascades were significantly downregulated in patients with ONJ, as were proteins confirmed by ELISA. CONCLUSIONS: ONJ is seen in patients with a history of aminobisphosphonate use. Functional imaging with NaF PET confirms the diagnosis of ONJ. Gene and protein studies are consistent with altered bone remodeling, evidenced by suppression of both bone resorption and formation. Keywords: Therapy complication analysis

Diagnostics in Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia: a consensus statement of the European Consortium for Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia.

Project description:The diagnosis of Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM), an IgM-associated lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, can be challenging due to the different forms of disease presentation. Furthermore, in recent years, WM has witnessed remarkable progress on the diagnostic front, as well as a deeper understanding of the disease biology, which has affected clinical practice. This, together with the increasing variety of tools and techniques available, makes it necessary to have a practical guidance for clinicians to perform the initial evaluation of patients with WM. In this paper, we present the consensus recommendations and laboratory requirements for the diagnosis of WM developed by the European Consortium of Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (ECWM), for both clinical practice as well as the research/academical setting. We provide the procedures for multiparametric flow cytometry, fluorescence in situ hybridization and molecular tests, and with this offer guidance for a standardized diagnostic work-up and methodological workflow of patients with IgM monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance, asymptomatic and symptomatic WM.

Genomewide pharmacogenetics of bisphosphonate-induced osteonecrosis of the jaw: the role of RBMS3.

Project description:Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is a serious adverse drug reaction. We conducted a genomewide association study to search for genetic variants with a large effect size that increase the risk for BRONJ.We ascertained BRONJ cases according to the diagnostic criteria of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons. We genotyped cases and a set of treatment-matched controls using Illumina Human Omni Express 12v1 chip (733,202 markers). To maximize the power of the study, we expanded the initial control set by including population and treatment-tolerant controls from publicly available sources. Imputation at the whole-genome level was performed to increase the number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) investigated. Tests of association were carried out by logistic regression, adjusting for population structure. We also examined a list of candidate genes comprising genes potentially involved in the pathogenesis of BRONJ and genes related to drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.Based on principal component analysis, we initially analyzed 30 white cases and 17 treatment-tolerant controls. We subsequently expanded the control set to include 60 genetically matched controls per case. Association testing identified a significant marker in the RBMS3 gene, rs17024608 (p-value < 7 × 10(-8)); individuals positive for the SNP were 5.8× more likely to develop BRONJ (odds ratio, 5.8; 95% confidence interval, 3.1-11.1). Candidate gene analysis further identified SNPs in IGFBP7 and ABCC4 as potentially implicated in BRONJ risk.Our findings suggest that genetic susceptibility plays a role in the pathophysiology of BRONJ, with RBMS3 having a significant effect in the risk.

Osteonecrosis of the jaw risk factors in bisphosphonate-treated patients with metastatic cancer.

Project description:BackgroundA case-control study was performed to define clinical and genetic risk factors associated with osteonecrosis of the jaw in patients with metastatic cancer treated with bisphosphonates.MethodsClinical data and tissues were collected from patients treated with bisphosphonates for metastatic bone disease who were diagnosed with osteonecrosis of the jaw (cases) and matched controls. Clinical data included patient, behavioral, disease, and treatment information. Genetic polymorphisms in CYP2C8 (rs1934951) and other candidate genes were genotyped. Odds ratios from conditional logistic regression models were examined to identify clinical and genetic characteristics associated with case or control status.ResultsThe study population consisted of 76 cases and 126 controls. In the final multivariable clinical model, patients with osteonecrosis of the jaw were less likely to have received pamidronate than zoledronic acid (odds ratio = 0.18, 95% Confidence interval: 0.03-0.97, p = .047) and more likely to have been exposed to bevacizumab (OR = 5.15, 95% CI: 1.67-15.95, p = .005). The exploratory genetic analyses suggested a protective effect for VEGFC rs2333496 and risk effects for VEGFC rs7664413 and PPARG rs1152003.ConclusionsWe observed patients with ONJ were more likely to have been exposed to bevacizumab and zoledronic and identified potential genetic predictors that require validation prior to clinical translation.
