    Abstract While immunotherapies, such as CAR T therapy and bi-specific antibodies, have revolutionized the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM), patients with AL amyloidosis have been excluded from trials with these agents due to concerns of underlying autonomic, cardiac, and renal dysfunction, leading to potentially fatal toxicities from these therapies. In this communication, we described the outcomes of two patients with AL amyloidosis and concurrent MM with underlying cardiac and/or renal dysfunction who underwent anti-BCMA CAR T cell therapy with ide-cel or cilta-cel, received cytokine release syndrome prophylaxis, and tolerated therapy well with manageable toxicities and achieved a MRD-negative state. We described the preliminary efficacy and safety of CAR T in patients with AL amyloidosis and highlighted the importance of patient selection and medical optimization of cardiac and renal function prior to CAR T.

    Abstract Plasma cell disorders are one of the most common hematologic malignancies. Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is defined by a serum monoclonal protein <3 g/dL, bone marrow plasma cell infiltration <10%, and most importantly absence of end-organ damage. The prevalence of MGUS in general population is estimated to be 1%-4% and its frequency increases with age with 3% among people above 50 y of age. The risk of progression to clinically significant plasma cell dyscrasia is estimated to be 1% per year. With aging population and increasing use of transplantation for the management of kidney disease in older adults, MGUS is being identified during the evaluation for kidney transplant candidacy or during the postkidney transplant follow-up. MGUS in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing evaluation for kidney transplant can pose a complex management dilemma. In this article, we review the current state of knowledge about the prevalence of MGUS in ESRD population and the impact of kidney transplantation on the progression of MGUS to clinically significant plasma cell disorder. We make recommendations for the screening of ESRD patients undergoing kidney transplant evaluation and the management of MGUS after renal transplant.

  6. Article ; Online: Trends in participant race and sex reporting in lung cancer phase III clinical trials.

    Abstract Background: Clinical trials are an essential part of advancing care for cancer patients. Historically, however, racial minorities and females have been underrepresented in these trials. Efforts like the National Institute of Health Revitalization Act attempted to mitigate these disparities, but despite these efforts, they continue to exist. These disparities can subsequently lead to minorities and females receiving suboptimal care.
    Aims: The purpose of our study was to understand the changing trends in reporting of participant race and sex as a demographic variable in phase III lung cancer clinical trials published over the last 35 years given these consequences of poor representation.
    Methods and results: A total of 426 articles reporting the results of phase III lung cancer clinical trials published from 1984 to 2019 were identified in PubMed. From these articles, data on participant sex and race were collected from the demographic tables to construct the database for this study. This database was subsequently used to determine the rate of reporting of demographic factors like race and sex and the participation trends over the time of minority and female participation in lung cancer phase III clinical trials. The SciPy Stats package for Python was used to calculate descriptive statistics, 95% confidence intervals, two sample t-test, one-way analysis of variance test, and Pearson's correlation coefficients. The Matplotlib package for Python was used for figure generation. Only 137 (32.2%) of the 426 studies analyzed reported the race of participants. Among those studies, we found that the mean participation rate of White participants was significantly higher (82.65%; p < .001). We found a decrease in African American participants and an increase in Asian participants over time. When looking at sex, we found that although the rate of male participation (69.02%) was significantly higher than that of female participation (30.98%), female participation has improved with time at a rate of 0.65% per year.
    Conclusion: We found that the reporting and participation of minority races continue to lag that of other demographic factors like sex in phase III clinical trials in lung cancer. Based on our analysis, we note a decline in participation of African Americans in lung cancer phase III clinical trials despite the rising incidence of lung cancer.

    Abstract Patients with relapsed follicular lymphoma who do not respond to CAR-T have a poor outcome. We present a case of refractory follicular lymphoma who relapsed after two CAR-T infusions and achieved a complete remission after treatment with obinutuzumab and lenalidomide. This represents a promising treatment option in the post-CAR-T setting.
