Chromosomal abnormalities are major prognostic factors in elderly patients with multiple myeloma: the intergroupe francophone du myelome experience.

ABSTRACT: Chromosomal abnormalities, especially t(4;14) and del(17p), are major prognostic factors in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). However, this has been especially demonstrated in patients age < 66 years treated with intensive approaches. The goal of this study was to address this issue in elderly patients treated with conventional-dose chemotherapy.To answer this important question, we retrospectively analyzed a series of 1,890 patients (median age, 72 years; range, 66 to 94 years), including 1,095 with updated data on treatment modalities and survival.This large study first showed that the incidence of t(4;14) was not uniform over age, with a marked decrease in the oldest patients. Second, it showed that both t(4;14) and del(17p) retained their prognostic value in elderly patients treated with melphalan and prednisone-based chemotherapy.t(4;14) and del(17p) are major prognostic factors in elderly patients with MM, both for progression-free and overall survival, indicating that these two abnormalities should be investigated at diagnosis of MM, regardless of age.

Genetic Abnormalities in Multiple Myeloma: Prognostic and Therapeutic Implications.

Project description:Some genetic abnormalities of multiple myeloma (MM) detected more than two decades ago remain major prognostic factors. In recent years, the introduction of cutting-edge genomic methodologies has enabled the extensive deciphering of genomic events in MM. Although none of the alterations newly discovered have significantly improved the stratification of the outcome of patients with MM, some of them, point mutations in particular, are promising targets for the development of personalized medicine. This review summarizes the main genetic abnormalities described in MM together with their prognostic impact, and the therapeutic approaches potentially aimed at abrogating the undesirable pathogenic effect of each alteration.

Immunological Prognostic Factors in Multiple Myeloma.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell neoplasm characterized by an abnormal proliferation of clonal, terminally differentiated B lymphocytes. Current approaches for the treatment of MM focus on developing new diagnostic techniques; however, the search for prognostic markers is also crucial. This enables the classification of patients into risk groups and, thus, the selection of the most optimal treatment method. Particular attention should be paid to the possible use of immune factors, as the immune system plays a key role in the formation and course of MM. In this review, we focus on characterizing the components of the immune system that are of prognostic value in MM patients, in order to facilitate the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic directions.

A compendium of myeloma associated chromosomal copy number abnormalities and their prognostic value

Project description:To obtain a comprehensive genomic profile of presenting multiple myeloma cases we performed high resolution single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mapping array analysis in 114 samples alongside 258 samples analysed by U133 Plus 2.0 expression array (Affymetrix). We examined DNA copy number alterations and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in order to define the spectrum of minimally deleted regions in which relevant genes of interest can be found. The most frequent deletions are located at 1p (30%), 6q (33%), 8q (25%), 12 (22%), 13q (59%), 14q (39%), 16q (35%), 17p (7%), 20 (12%) and 22 (18%). In addition, copy number-neutral LOH, or uniparental disomy, was also prevalent on 1q (8%), 16q (9%), and X (20%), and was associated with regions of gain and loss. Based on fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) and expression quartile analysis, genes of prognostic importance were found to be located at 1p (FAF1, CDKN2C), 1q (ANP32E), and 17p (TP53). In addition, we identified common homozygously deleted genes which have functions relevant to myeloma biology. Taken together, the dysregulated genes from the myeloma genome indicate that the crucial pathways in myeloma pathogenesis include the NF-?B pathway, apoptosis, cell-cycle regulation and Wnt signalling.

Prognostic implications of abnormalities of chromosome 13 and the presence of multiple cytogenetic high-risk abnormalities in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.

Project description:Fluorescence in situ hybridization evaluation is essential for initial risk stratification in multiple myeloma. While the presence of specific cytogenetic high-risk abnormalities (HRA) is known to confer a poor prognosis, less is known about the cumulative effect of multiple HRA. We studied 1181 patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who received novel agents as first-line therapy. High-risk abnormalities were defined as t(4;14), t(14;16), t(14;20) and del(17p). There were 884 patients (75%) without any HRA and 297 patients (25%) with HRA, including 262 (22%) with one HRA and 35 (3%) with two HRA. The presence of one HRA (versus zero, hazard ratio (HR) 1.65, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.32-2.05, p<0.001) and the presence of two HRA (versus zero, HR 3.15, 95% CI 2.00-4.96, p<0.001) were of prognostic significance after adjusting for other prognostic factors. Abnormalities of chromosome 13 were of prognostic significance independent of the established HRA: Monosomy 13 (HR 1.27, 95% CI 1.04-1.56, P=0.022) and del(13q) (HR 0.48, 95% CI 0.28-0.81, P=0.006) with opposite effects. Patients with HRA experienced worse overall survival suggesting a cumulative adverse effect of multiple HRA. Abnormalities of chromosome 13 were of prognostic significance after adjusting for other prognostic factors.

Chromosome 1 abnormalities in elderly patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma treated with novel therapies.

Project description:Multiple myeloma is a plasma cell disorder characterized by malignant plasma cell infiltration in the bone marrow, serum and/or urine monoclonal protein and organ damage. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of chromosome 1 abnormalities in a group of elderly patients (>65 years) with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma enrolled in the GIMEMA-MM-03-05 trial and treated with bortezomib, melphalan and prednisone or bortezomib, melphalan, prednisone and thalidomide followed by bortezomib and thalidomide maintenance. We also evaluated the link between chromosome 1 abnormalities and other clinical, genetic and immunophenotypic features by a multivariate logistic regression model. Interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization on immunomagnetically purified plasma cells and bone marrow multiparameter flow cytometry were employed. A multivariate Cox model showed that chromosome 1 abnormalities, age >75 years and a CD19(+)/CD117(-) immunophenotype of bone marrow plasma cells were independent risk factors for overall survival in elderly patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. Moreover, a detrimental effect of thalidomide, even when administered in association with bortezomib, was observed in patients with abnormal chromosome 1 as well as in those with 17p deletion, while the benefit of adding thalidomide to the bortezomib-melphalan-prednisone regimen was noted in patients carrying an aggressive CD19(+)/CD117(-) bone marrow plasma cell immunophenotype. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltri-als.gov as #NCT01063179.

Prognostic Impact of Cytogenetic Abnormalities in Multiple Myeloma: A Retrospective Analysis of 229 Patients.

Project description:The identification of specific cytogenetic abnormalities by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (i-FISH) has become a routine procedure for prognostic stratification of multiple myeloma (MM) patients. In this study, the prognostic significance of cytogenetic abnormalities detected by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (iFISH) in 229 newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients was retrospectively analyzed. Results showed that del (17p), t(4;14), and 1q21 gain were adverse predictors of progression-free survival (PFS). Patients who carried these cytogenetic abnormalities were more likely to have more adverse biological parameters and lower response rate. Multivariate analysis showed that del (17p), t(4;14), and 1q21 gain were statistically independent predictors of PFS, whereas del (17p) was also adverse predictor of overall survival. Multiple coexisting cytogenetic abnormalities also had a negative correlation with PFS. Bortezomib-based therapy could improve the rate and depth of response in patients with t(4;14) translocation and 1q21 gain. Autologous stem cell transplantation could improve, but not overcome the adverse prognostic effect of high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities. These results demonstrate that MM patients with iFISH abnormalities, especially del (17p), are more likely to have a poor prognosis.

Prognostic significance of bone marrow abnormalities in the appendicular skeleton of patients with multiple myeloma.

Project description:We aimed to determine the clinical and prognostic significance of medullary abnormalities detected by low-dose whole-body multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) in the appendicular skeleton (AS) of patients with newly diagnosed symptomatic multiple myeloma (MM). One hundred ninety-six patients underwent low-dose whole-body MDCT as an initial workup. Patients were categorized into 3 groups based on the medullary pattern of the AS: fatty (36.3%), focal (43.4%), and diffuse (20.4%). Medullary abnormalities were associated with Durie-Salmon and revised International Scoring System stage 3, creatinine levels >2.0 mg/dL, and the proportion of bone marrow plasma cells. The median follow-up was 35.4 months. Patients with fatty, focal, and diffuse patterns had a median survival of not reached, 56 months, and 38 months, respectively. Overall survival (OS) was associated with age, Durie-Salmon stage 3, creatinine levels >2.0 mg/dL, ineligibility for autologous stem cell transplantation, and focal and diffuse patterns on univariate analysis. Multivariate analysis showed that age and diffuse pattern (hazard ratio [HR], 1.92; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.12-3.31; P = .018) were independent predictors of progression-free survival. Age and focal (HR, 2.51; 95% CI, 1.14-5.56; P = .023) and diffuse (HR, 4.12; 95% CI, 1.74-9.77; P = .001) patterns were also independent predictors of OS. The addition of marrow pattern to preexisting risk factors was associated with a net reclassification improvement for predicting OS (to 0.37, P = .015). Medullary abnormalities in the AS (detected by low-dose whole-body MDCT) are associated with a poor prognosis, independent of other clinical variables.

Natural History and Prognostic Factors at First Relapse in Multiple Myeloma.

Project description:The prognosis of multiple myeloma has considerably improved due to the introduction of novel agents in the upfront setting. However, the great majority of patients ultimately relapse, and choosing a salvage treatment at first relapse remains challenging. The natural history of first relapsed disease in the current era is also not well described. We retrospectively studied 300 patients with first relapsed myeloma seen between 2004 and 2019 from two institutes in Singapore. The median duration from diagnosis to first relapse was 22.7 months (1.1-97.0 months). Most patients received novel agent-based induction therapy, and 41.3% underwent autologous stem cell transplant. A very good partial response (VGPR) or better was achieved in 48.6%. Regarding first relapse, 50.5% were symptomatic and 19.0% received newer agent-containing regimens. Nearly a third of patients (31.7%) had a VGPR or better response. The median progression free and overall survival from first relapse was 12.0 and 44.8 months, respectively. Based on a randomized sample splitting, we first identified non-hyperdiploid karyotype at diagnosis, clinical relapse, and treatment sequence as impacting survival independently from a testing cohort, and we then further demonstrated their significance in a validation cohort. This study provides a real-world picture of first relapsed myeloma and highlights the prognostic importance of the treatment sequence.

Clinical Utility of a Diagnostic Approach to Detect Genetic Abnormalities in Multiple Myeloma: A Single Institution Experience.

Project description:The identification of genetic abnormalities in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) has gained emphasis because genetics-based risk stratification significantly affects overall survival (OS). We investigated genetic abnormalities using conventional cytogenetics and FISH and analyzed the prognostic significance of the identified additional abnormalities in MM.In total, 267 bone marrow samples were collected from February 2006 to November 2013 from patients who were newly diagnosed as having MM in a tertiary-care hospital in Korea. The clinical and laboratory data were retrospectively obtained. Cox proportional hazard regression was used to examine the relationship between clinical/genetic factors and survival outcome, using univariate and multivariate models.Using conventional cytogenetic analysis and FISH, 45% (120/267) and 69% (183/267) patients, respectively, were identified to harbor genetic abnormalities. In the univariate analysis, the following genetic variables were identified to affect OS: abnormal karyotype (P<0.001), aneuploidy (P=0.046), -13 or del(13q) (P=0.002), 1q amplification (P<0.001), and t(4;14) (P=0.020). In the multivariate analysis, the presence of -13 or del(13q) was the only significant genetic factor affecting OS (P=0.012) with a hazard ratio (HR) of 2.131 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.185-3.832) in addition to the clinical factor of age (>65 years) (P=0.013) with an HR of 2.505 (95% CI, 1.218-5.151).Our findings highlight the importance of applying a comprehensive approach for detecting genetic abnormalities, which could be closely associated with the prognostic significance of MM.
