ABSTRACT

Systemic light chain amyloidosis is a rare and severe disorder characterized by amyloid fibril deposition in various tissues, often leading to organ failure. Early diagnosis is crucial but challenging due to diverse clinical manifestations. Our case report presents a complex case of systemic light chain amyloidosis in a 62-year-old patient with cardiac, renal, neurological, and gastrointestinal involvement. The patient's treatment with cyclophosphamide, bortezomib, dexamethasone, and intravenous daratumumab yielded significant improvement, aligning with recent studies. Following treatment, the patient improved from stage IV to stage II systemic light chain amyloidosis per the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines, indicating a more favorable prognosis. Hence, the successful integration of daratumumab in our case underscores its potential as a valuable addition to the treatment regimen for advanced systemic light chain amyloidosis, showcasing significant improvements across multiple organ systems.
