    Abstract Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography attenuation correction (PET-CT) in myeloma can detect and enumerate focal lesions by the quantitative characterization of metabolic activity. The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic significance of the suppression of PET-CT activity at a number of time points post therapy initiation: day 7, post induction, post transplant, and at maintenance therapy. As part of the TT4-6 trial series, 596 patients underwent baseline PET-CT and were evaluated serially during their disease course using peak standardized uptake values above background red marrow signal. We demonstrate that the presence of more than 3 focal lesions at presentation identifies a group of patients with an adverse progression-free survival and overall survival. At day 7 of therapy, patients with complete focal lesion signal suppression revert to the same prognosis as those with no lesions at diagnosis. At later time points, the continued suppression of signal remains prognostically important. We conclude that for newly diagnosed patients with focal lesions, treatment until these lesions are suppressed is an important therapeutic goal as the prognosis of these patients is the same as those without lesions at diagnosis.

    Abstract Assiduous surveillance for genetic aberrations is necessary in patients on cytotoxic therapies to detect therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN). Current modalities include metaphase cytogenetics and FISH. Since t-MN may develop abruptly in cytogenetically normal patients, a discussion exploring additional methods such as SNP-array and targeted-deep-sequencing to detect subchromosomal abnormalities is needed.

    Abstract Background: The tumor microenvironment (TME) is increasingly appreciated as an important determinant of cancer outcome, including in multiple myeloma (MM). However, most myeloma microenvironment studies have been based on bone marrow (BM) aspirates, which often do not fully reflect the cellular content of BM tissue itself. To address this limitation in myeloma research, we systematically characterized the whole bone marrow (WBM) microenvironment during premalignant, baseline, on treatment, and post-treatment phases.
    Methods and findings: Between 2004 and 2019, 998 BM samples were taken from 436 patients with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in Little Rock, Arkansas, United States of America. These patients were 61% male and 39% female, 89% White, 8% Black, and 3% other/refused, with a mean age of 58 years. Using WBM and matched cluster of differentiation (CD)138-selected tumor gene expression to control for tumor burden, we identified a subgroup of patients with an adverse TME associated with 17 fewer months of progression-free survival (PFS) (95% confidence interval [CI] 5-29, 49-69 versus 70-82 months, χ2 p = 0.001) and 15 fewer months of overall survival (OS; 95% CI -1 to 31, 92-120 versus 113-129 months, χ2 p = 0.036). Using immunohistochemistry-validated computational tools that identify distinct cell types from bulk gene expression, we showed that the adverse outcome was correlated with elevated CD8+ T cell and reduced granulocytic cell proportions. This microenvironment develops during the progression of premalignant to malignant disease and becomes less prevalent after therapy, in which it is associated with improved outcomes. In patients with quantified International Staging System (ISS) stage and 70-gene Prognostic Risk Score (GEP-70) scores, taking the microenvironment into consideration would have identified an additional 40 out of 290 patients (14%, premutation p = 0.001) with significantly worse outcomes (PFS, 95% CI 6-36, 49-73 versus 74-90 months) who were not identified by existing clinical (ISS stage III) and tumor (GEP-70) criteria as high risk. The main limitations of this study are that it relies on computationally identified cell types and that patients were treated with thalidomide rather than current therapies.
    Conclusions: In this study, we observe that granulocyte signatures in the MM TME contribute to a more accurate prognosis. This implies that future researchers and clinicians treating patients should quantify TME components, in particular monocytes and granulocytes, which are often ignored in microenvironment studies.

    Abstract Purpose: In Total Therapy 2, after randomly assigning 323 patients with myeloma to thalidomide and 345 to a control arm, no difference was observed in overall survival, with a median follow-up of 42 months, although at 72 months, survival was superior on the thalidomide arm in the one third exhibiting cytogenetic abnormalities (CA). After further follow-up of 87 months, we examined, in reiterative analyses, the effect of increasing time intervals on clinical outcomes relevant to baseline prognostic variables and treatment randomization.
    Patients and methods: We investigated clinical trial end points as a function of increasing time intervals from protocol enrollment to determine consistencies of results by treatment and prognostic variables.
    Results: The complete congruence of serial survival plots for both study arms combined attested to stable patient characteristics over the time of accrual and the quality of follow-up management. Presence of CA was associated with consistently inferior survival curves from year 3 onward. Although 80% of patients randomly assigned to thalidomide discontinued study drug after 2 years because of toxicity, its clinical benefit did not reach statistical significance until year 10. The relative ranking order in multivariate models of prognostic factors remained stable over time. Decline in initially high hazard ratio values of gene array-defined high risk is consistent with an initial crisis phase that is time limited.
    Conclusion: Reporting potentially time-sensitive features as a part of clinical trial results will enable the critical reader to judge the robustness of prognostic factors and the time sensitivity of outcome predictors, with important implications for future trial designs.

    Abstract Relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma represents a major challenge in multiple myeloma therapy. For patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, we developed a treatment schema of metronomically scheduled drug therapy. We identified 186 patients who had been treated with metronomic therapy between March 2004 and January 2012 with a median follow up of 24.2 months. Median age was 61 years (range 36-83). Median number of prior therapies was 14 (range 1-51). Median number of completed metronomic therapy cycles was 1 (range 1-5), while 45 of 186 (25%) received 2 or more cycles. Responses included complete remission in 11 of 186 patients (6%), very good partial remission in 12 of 186 (7%), partial remission in 65 of 179 (36%), and minimal response in 29 of 186 (16%), for an overall response rate of 63% (117 of 186). Median overall survival and progression-free survival were 11.2 and 3.6 months, respectively. Hematologic toxicity grading was problematic as 146 of 186 (78%) of patients presented with at least grade 2 thrombocytopenia within 90 days prior to starting metronomic therapy. Grade 4 leukopenia, anemia, and/or thrombocytopenia following metronomic therapy occurred in 108 of 186 (58%), 12 of 186 (6%), and 147 of 186 (79%) patients, respectively. Incidence of grade 3-4 neutropenic fever was 4 of 186 (2%). Most patients (177 of 186, 95%) were treated in an outpatient unit and secondary admissions due to regimen-related toxicity occurred in 37 of 186 (20%). Treatment-related mortality was evident in 2 of 186 (1%). In conclusion, metronomic therapy is an effective late salvage treatment in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, with a high overall response rate and a favorable toxicity profile.

    Abstract Multiple myeloma is preceded by an asymptomatic phase, comprising monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance and smoldering myeloma. Compared to the former, smoldering myeloma has a higher and non-uniform rate of progression to clinical myeloma, reflecting a subset of patients with higher risk. We evaluated the gene expression profile of smoldering myeloma plasma cells among 105 patients enrolled in a prospective observational trial at our institution, with a view to identifying a high-risk signature. Baseline clinical, bone marrow, cytogenetic and radiologic data were evaluated for their potential to predict time to therapy for symptomatic myeloma. A gene signature derived from four genes, at an optimal binary cut-point of 9.28, identified 14 patients (13%) with a 2-year therapy risk of 85.7%. Conversely, a low four-gene score (< 9.28) combined with baseline monoclonal protein < 3 g/dL and albumin ≥ 3.5 g/dL identified 61 patients with low-risk smoldering myeloma with a 5.0% chance of progression at 2 years. The top 40 probe sets showed concordance with indices of chromosome instability. These data demonstrate high discriminatory power of a gene-based assay and suggest a role for dysregulation of mitotic checkpoints in the context of genomic instability as a hallmark of high-risk smoldering myeloma.

    Abstract Prognostic implications of 3 imaging tools, metastatic bone survey, magnetic resonance imaging, and positron emission tomography (PET), were evaluated in 2 consecutive Total Therapy 3 trials for newly diagnosed myeloma. Data including PET at baseline and on day 7 of induction as well as standard prognostic factors were available in 302 patients of whom 277 also had gene expression profiling (GEP)-derived risk information. According to multivariate analysis, more than 3 focal lesions on day 7 imparted inferior overall survival and progression-free survival, overall and in the subset with GEP-risk data. GEP high-risk designation retained independent significance for all 3 end points examined. Thus, the presence of > 3 focal lesions on day 7 PET follow-up may be exploited toward early therapy change, especially for the 15% of patients with GEP-defined high-risk disease with a median overall survival expectation of 2 years. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT00081939 and # NCT00572169.

    Abstract All cases of clinical myeloma (CMM) are preceded by an asymptomatic monoclonal gammopathy (AMG), classified as either monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) or asymptomatic multiple myeloma (AMM). We analyzed data from AMG patients (n = 331) enrolled in a prospective, observational clinical trial (S0120). Baseline data from clinical variables, gene expression profiles (GEP) of purified tumor cells, and findings of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were correlated with the risk of progression to CMM requiring therapy. GEP of purified tumor cells revealed that all molecular subtypes of CMM are also represented in the AMG phase. An increased risk score (>-0.26) (based on a 70-gene signature, GEP70) was an independent predictor of the risk of progression to CMM. Combination of elevated serum free light chain, M-spike, and GEP70 risk score identified a subset with high risk (67% at 2 years) of progression to CMM requiring therapy. Importantly, absence of these factors in AMM patients predicted low risk similar to MGUS. Detection of multiple (>1) focal lesions by MRI also conferred an increased risk of progression. These data demonstrate that signatures associated with high-risk CMM impact disease risk and support inclusion of genomic analysis in the clinical management of AMGs.
