Project description:Immunoglobulin light-chain amyloidosis (AL) is a rare clonal plasma cell (PC) disorder that remains largely incurable. AL and multiple myeloma (MM) share the same cellular origin, but while knowledge about MM PC biology has improved significantly, the same does not apply for AL. Here, we undertook an integrative phenotypic, molecular, and genomic approach to study clonal PCs from 22 newly-diagnosed AL patients. Through principal-component-analysis, we demonstrated highly overlapping phenotypic profiles between AL and MGUS or MM patients. However, in contrast to MM, highly-purified FACSs-sorted clonal PCs in AL (n=9/22) show virtually normal transcriptomes with only 68 deregulated genes as compared to normal PCs, including a few tumor suppressor (CDH1, RCAN) and pro-apoptotic (GLIPR1, FAS) genes. Notwithstanding, clonal PCs in AL (n=11/22) were genomically unstable with a median of 9 copy-number-abnormities (CNAs) per case; many of which similar to those found in MM. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed in three AL patients and revealed a median of 10 non-recurrent mutations per case. Altogether, we showed that although clonal PCs in AL display phenotypic and CNA profiles similar to MM, their transcriptome is remarkably similar to that of normal PCs. First-ever WES revealed the lack of a unifying mutation in AL

First-ever WES revealed the lack of a unifying mutation in AL A total of 22 patients with confirmed diagnosis of AL based on the presence of amyloid-related systemic syndrome, positive amyloid tissue staining with Congo red, and evidence of PC clonality were studied. Samples were collected after informed consent was given, in accordance with local ethical committee guidelines and the Helsinki Declaration. GEP was performed in 9/22 AL cases with adequate RNA extracted from FACS-purified clonal PCs according to patient-specific aberrant phenotypes, and compared to that of normal PCs from 5 healthy individuals (FACSAriaIIb, BDB; â¥95% purity). RNA was hybridized to the Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and normalization was carried using the expression console (Affymetrix) with the RMA algorithm which includes background correction, normalization and calculation of expression values (log2). Differentially expressed genes between classes were identified using the Significant Analysis of Microarrays (SAM) algorithm (http://www-stat.standford.edu/-tibs/SAM), and significant genes were selected based on the lowest q-value (<10-5).

Samples were collected after informed consent was given, in accordance with local ethical committee guidelines and the Helsinki Declaration. Genome-wide detection of CNAs and copy-number neutral loss-of-heterozygosity (LOH) were investigated using the Cytoscan 750K platform (Affymetrix) in 11/22 cases with adequate DNA extracted from FACS-sorted clonal PCs and paired T-lymphocytes. The AGCC and ChAS software programs (Affymetrix) were used for data analysis as described elsewhere. CNAs were reported when the three following criteria were met: â¥25 consecutive imbalanced markers per segment; â¥100Kb minimum genomic size and; <50% overlap with paired control DNA and/or genomic variants of Toronto DB (DGV). Only CNN-LOH larger that 5Mb, with â¥25 consecutive imbalanced markers per segment, and <50% overlap with patient-paired CNAs were considered.

Project description:Light chain (AL) amyloidosis is caused by a usually small plasma-cell clone that is able to produce the amyloidogenic light chains. They are able to misfold and aggregate, deposit in tissues in the form of amyloid fibrils and lead to irreversible organ dysfunction and eventually death if treatment is late or ineffective. Cardiac damage is the most important prognostic determinant. The risk of dialysis is predicted by the severity of renal involvement, defined by the baseline proteinuria and glomerular filtration rate, and by the response to therapy. The specific treatment is chemotherapy targeting the underlying plasma-cell clone. It needs to be risk-adapted, according to the severity of cardiac and/or multi-organ involvement. Autologous stem cell transplant (preceded by induction and/or followed by consolidation with bortezomib-based regimens) can be considered for low-risk patients (~20%). Bortezomib combined with alkylators is used in the majority of intermediate-risk patients, and with possible dose escalation in high-risk subjects. Novel, powerful anti-plasma cell agents were investigated in the relapsed/refractory setting, and are being moved to upfront therapy in clinical trials. In addition, the use of novel approaches based on antibodies targeting the amyloid deposits or small molecules interfering with the amyloidogenic process gave promising results in preliminary studies. Some of them are under evaluation in controlled trials. These molecules will probably add powerful complements to standard chemotherapy. The understanding of the specific molecular mechanisms of cardiac damage and the characteristics of the amyloidogenic clone are unveiling novel potential treatment approaches, moving towards a cure for this dreadful disease.

Project description:Light chain (AL) amyloidosis is the most common form of amyloidosis involving the kidney. It is characterized by albuminuria, progressing to overt nephrotic syndrome and eventually end-stage renal failure if diagnosed late or ineffectively treated, and in most cases by concomitant heart involvement. Cardiac amyloidosis is the main determinant of survival, whereas the risk of dialysis is predicted by baseline proteinuria and glomerular filtration rate, and by response to therapy. The backbone of treatment is chemotherapy targeting the underlying plasma cell clone, that needs to be risk-adapted due to the frailty of patients with AL amyloidosis who have cardiac and/or multiorgan involvement. Low-risk patients (?20%) can be considered for autologous stem cell transplantation that can be preceded by induction and/or followed by consolidation with bortezomib-based regimens. Bortezomib combined with alkylators, such as melphalan, preferred in patients harboring t(11;14), or cyclophosphamide, is used in most intermediate-risk patients, and with cautious dose escalation in high-risk subjects. Novel, powerful anti-plasma cell agents, such as pomalidomide, ixazomib, and daratumumab, prove effective in the relapsed/refractory setting, and are being moved to upfront therapy in clinical trials. Novel approaches based on small molecules interfering with the amyloidogenic process and on antibodies targeting the amyloid deposits gave promising results in preliminary uncontrolled studies, are being tested in controlled trials, and will likely prove powerful complements to chemotherapy. Finally, improvements in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of organ damage are unveiling novel potential treatment targets, moving toward a cure for this dreadful disease.
