    Abstract The rapid spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has resulted in an unprecedented public health crisis worldwide. Recent studies indicate that a hyperinflammatory syndrome induced by SARS-CoV-2 contributes to disease severity and mortality in COVID-19. In this review, an overview of the pathophysiology underlying the hyperinflammatory syndrome in severe COVID-19 is provided. The current evidence suggests that the hyperinflammatory syndrome results from a dysregulated host innate immune response. The gross and microscopic pathologic findings as well as the alterations in the cytokine milieu, macrophages/monocytes, natural killer cells, T cells, and neutrophils in severe COVID-19 are summarized. The data highlighted include the potential therapeutic approaches undergoing investigation to modulate the immune response and abrogate lung injury in severe COVID-19.

    Abstract Patients with advanced cardiac immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis have a poor prognosis. Early hematologic and cardiac responses can prolong survival, but predictors of these outcomes have yet to be clarified. We report on 142 patients with newly diagnosed stage IIIb AL amyloidosis. After a median follow-up of 60 months, the median overall survival (OS) was 9 months. Independent baseline factors associated with shorter OS were symptom onset to diagnosis >6 months (hazard ratio [HR], 1.94; P = .003); bone marrow plasmacytosis ≥ 10% (HR, 1.98; P = .01); troponin I > 0.635 ng/mL (HR, 1.62; P = .04); New York Heart Association class III or IV (HR, 1.67; P = .04); and 6-minute walk test distance < 200 m (HR, 1.85; P = .01). Early hematologic (within 1 month) and cardiac (within 3 months) responses were significantly associated with longer survival. In a 1-month landmark analysis, patients with a hematologic very good partial response, partial response, and no response had a median OS of 47, 25, and 5 months, respectively (P < .0001). Patients with cardiac response at 3 months had significantly longer OS (47 vs 11 months; P < .0001). On multivariable modeling, bortezomib use was associated with early hematologic and cardiac responses and longer OS. Symptom onset to diagnosis duration of >6 months and difference between the involved and uninvolved free light chain > 350 mg/L were independently associated with lower odds of an early cardiac response. This study identified factors predictive of treatment outcomes and survival in advanced cardiac AL amyloidosis.

    Abstract High-dose melphalan and stem cell transplantation (HDM/SCT) is an effective treatment for selected patients with AL amyloidosis. We report the long-term outcomes of 648 patients with AL amyloidosis treated with HDM/SCT over 25 years. Hematologic CR was achieved by 39% of patients. The median duration of hematologic CR was 12.3 years, and 45% of patients with a hematologic CR had no evidence of a recurrent plasma cell dyscrasia at 15 years after HDM/SCT. With a median follow-up interval of 8 years, the median event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were 3.3 and 7.6 years, respectively. Patients with a hematologic CR had a median OS of 15 years, and 30% of these patients survived >20 years. On multivariable analysis, dFLC >180 mg/L and BM plasma cells >10% were independently associated with shorter EFS, whereas BNP >81 pg/mL, troponin I > 0.1 ng/mL, and serum creatinine >2.0 mg/dL were independently associated with shorter OS. We developed a prognostic score for EFS, which incorporated dFLC >180 mg/L and BMPC% >10% as adverse risk factors. Patients with low-risk (0 factors), intermediate-risk (1 factor), and high-risk (2 factors) disease had median EFS estimates of 5.3, 2.8, and 1.0 years, respectively (p < .001). The 100-day treatment-related mortality rate was 3% in the latest treatment period (2012-2021), and the 25-year risk of t-MDS/AML was 3%. We conclude that HDM/SCT induces durable hematologic responses and prolonged survival with improved safety in selected patients with AL amyloidosis.
