RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Estimating progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival superiority during clinical trials of multiple myeloma (MM) has become increasingly challenging as novel therapeutics have improved patient outcomes. Thus, it is imperative to identify earlier end point surrogates that are predictive of long-term clinical benefit. Minimal residual disease (MRD)-negativity is a common intermediate end point that has shown prognostic value for clinical benefit in MM. This meta-analysis was based on the US Food and Drug Administration guidance for considerations for a meta-analysis of MRD as a clinical end point and evaluates MRD-negativity as an early end point reasonably likely to predict long-term clinical benefit. Eligible studies were phase 2 or 3 randomized controlled clinical trials measuring MRD-negativity as an end point in patients with MM, with follow-up of ≥6 months following an a priori-defined time point of 12 ± 3 months after randomization. Eight newly diagnosed MM studies evaluating 4907 patients were included. Trial-level associations between MRD-negativity and PFS were R2WLSiv, 0.67 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.43-0.91) and R2copula 0.84 (0.64 to >0.99) at the 12-month time point. The individual-level association between 12-month MRD-negativity and PFS resulted in a global odds ratio (OR) of 4.02 (95% CI, 2.57-5.46). For relapse/refractory MM, there were 4 studies included, and the individual-level association between 12-month MRD-negativity and PFS resulted in a global OR of 7.67 (4.24-11.10). A clinical trial demonstrating a treatment effect on MRD is reasonably likely to eventually demonstrate a treatment effect on PFS, suggesting that MRD may be an early clinical end point reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit in MM, that may be used to support accelerated approval and thereby, expedite the availability of new drugs to patients with MM.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Acquisition of a hyperdiploid (HY) karyotype or immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) translocations are considered key initiating events in multiple myeloma (MM). To explore if other genomic events can precede these events, we analyzed whole-genome sequencing data from 1173 MM samples. By integrating molecular time and structural variants within early chromosomal duplications, we indeed identified pregain deletions in 9.4% of patients with an HY karyotype without IgH translocations, challenging acquisition of an HY karyotype as the earliest somatic event. Remarkably, these deletions affected tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) and/or oncogenes in 2.4% of patients with an HY karyotype without IgH translocations, supporting their role in MM pathogenesis. Furthermore, our study points to postgain deletions as novel driver mechanisms in MM. Using multiomics approaches to investigate their biologic impact, we found associations with poor clinical outcome in newly diagnosed patients and profound effects on both the oncogene and TSG activity despite the diploid gene status. Overall, this study provides novel insights into the temporal dynamics of genomic alterations in MM.

RESUMO

Multiple myeloma remains an incurable disease, despite the development of numerous drug classes and combinations that have contributed to improved overall survival. Immunotherapies directed against cancer cell-surface antigens, such as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy and T-cell-redirecting bispecific antibodies, have recently received regulatory approvals and shown unprecedented efficacy. However, these immunotherapies have unique mechanisms of action and toxicities that are different to previous treatments for myeloma, so experiences from clinical trials and early access programmes are essential for providing specific recommendations for management of patients, especially as these agents become available across many parts of the world. Here, we provide expert consensus clinical practice guidelines for the use of bispecific antibodies for the treatment of myeloma. The International Myeloma Working Group is also involved in the collection of prospective real-time data of patients treated with such immunotherapies, with the aim of learning continuously and adapting clinical practices to optimise the management of patients receiving immunotherapies.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Radiomics models trained on data from one center typically show a decline of performance when applied to data from external centers, hindering their introduction into large-scale clinical practice. Current expert recommendations suggest to use only reproducible radiomics features isolated by multiscanner test-retest experiments, which might help to overcome the problem of limited generalizability to external data. PURPOSE: To evaluate the influence of using only a subset of robust radiomics features, defined in a prior in vivo multi-MRI-scanner test-retest-study, on the performance and generalizability of radiomics models. STUDY TYPE: Retrospective. POPULATION: Patients with monoclonal plasma cell disorders. Training set (117 MRIs from center 1); internal test set (42 MRIs from center 1); external test set (143 MRIs from center 2-8). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE: 1.5T and 3.0T; T1-weighted turbo spin echo. ASSESSMENT: The task for the radiomics models was to predict plasma cell infiltration, determined by bone marrow biopsy, noninvasively from MRI. Radiomics machine learning models, including linear regressor, support vector regressor (SVR), and random forest regressor (RFR), were trained on data from center 1, using either all radiomics features, or using only reproducible radiomics features. Models were tested on an internal (center 1) and a multicentric external data set (center 2-8). STATISTICAL TESTS: Pearson correlation coefficient r and mean absolute error (MAE) between predicted and actual plasma cell infiltration. Fisher's z-transformation, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, Wilcoxon rank-sum test; significance level P < 0.05. RESULTS: When using only reproducible features compared with all features, the performance of the SVR on the external test set significantly improved (r = 0.43 vs. r = 0.18 and MAE = 22.6 vs. MAE = 28.2). For the RFR, the performance on the external test set deteriorated when using only reproducible instead of all radiomics features (r = 0.33 vs. r = 0.44, P = 0.29 and MAE = 21.9 vs. MAE = 20.5, P = 0.10). CONCLUSION: Using only reproducible radiomics features improves the external performance of some, but not all machine learning models, and did not automatically lead to an improvement of the external performance of the overall best radiomics model. TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 2.

RESUMO

Based on the lack of differences in progression-free and overall survival after a median follow-up of 93 months in our HOVON-65/GMMG-HD4 trial (German part; n = 395) randomizing VAD induction (vincristin/adriamycin/dexamthasone)/tandem-transplantation/thalidomide-maintenance vs. PAD induction (bortezomib/adriamycin/dexamethasone)/tandem transplantation/bortezomib maintenance, we discern how chromosomal aberrations determine long-term prognosis by different patterns of association with proliferation and treatment-dependent response, whether responses achieved by different regimens are equal regarding prognosis, and whether subpopulations of patients could be defined as treatable without upfront "novel agents" in cases of limited resources, e.g., in low- or middle-income countries. Serum parameters and risk factors were assessed in 395 patients. CD138-purified plasma cells were subjected to fluorescence in situ hybridization (n = 354) and gene expression profiling (n = 204). We found chromosomal aberrations to be associated in four patterns with survival, proliferation, and response: deletion (del) del17p13, del8p21, del13q14, (gain) 1q21+, and translocation t(4;14) (all adverse) associate with higher proliferation. Of these, del17p is associated with an adverse response (pattern 1), and 1q21+, t(4;14), and del13q14 with a treatment-dependent better response (pattern 2). Hyperdiploidy associates with lower proliferation without impacting response or survival (pattern 3). Translocation t(11;14) has no association with survival but a treatment-dependent adverse response (pattern 4). Significantly fewer patients reach a near-complete response or better with "conventional" (VAD) vs. bortezomib-based treatment after induction or high-dose melphalan. These patients, however, show significantly better median progression-free and overall survival. Molecularly, patients responding to the two regimens differ in gene expression, indicating distinct biological properties of the responding myeloma cells. Patients with normal renal function (89.4%), low cytogenetic risk (72.5%), or low proliferation rate (37.9%) neither benefit in progression-free nor overall survival from bortezomib-based upfront treatment. We conclude that response level, the treatment by which it is achieved, and molecular background determine long-term prognosis. Chromosomal aberrations are associated in four patterns with proliferation and treatment-dependent responses. Associations with faster and deeper responses can be deceptive in the case of prognostically adverse aberrations 1q21+ and t(4;14). Far from advocating a return to "outdated" treatments, if resources do not permit state-of-the-art-treatment, normal renal function and/or molecular profiling identifies patient subpopulations doing well without upfront "novel agents".

RESUMO

Early intervention trials have been initiated for the precursor disease smoldering myeloma (SMM). A recent study showed that genomic complexity varies widely among treated high-risk SMM patients and is associated with response to triplet therapy, suggesting that established clinical risk scores often fail to discriminate between stable and aggressive disease.

RESUMO

Multiple myeloma is characterized by a highly heterogeneous disease distribution within the bone marrow-containing skeletal system. In this review, we introduce the molecular mechanisms underlying clonal heterogeneity and the spatio-temporal evolution of myeloma. We discuss the clinical impact of clonal heterogeneity, which is thought to be one of the biggest obstacles to overcome therapy resistance and to achieve cure.

RESUMO

Current treatment strategies for multiple myeloma (MM) are highly effective, but most patients develop relapsed/refractory disease (RRMM). The anti-CD38/CD3xCD28 trispecific antibody SAR442257 targets CD38 and CD28 on MM cells and co-stimulates CD3 and CD28 on T cells (TCs). We evaluated different key aspects such as MM cells and T cells avidity interaction, tumor killing, and biomarkers for drug potency in three distinct cohorts of RRMM patients. We found that a significantly higher proportion of RRMM patients (86%) exhibited aberrant co-expression of CD28 compared to newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) patients (19%). Furthermore, SAR442257 mediated significantly higher TC activation, resulting in enhanced MM killing compared to bispecific functional knockout controls for all relapse cohorts (Pearson's r = 0.7). Finally, patients refractory to anti-CD38 therapy had higher levels of TGF-ß (up to 20-fold) compared to other cohorts. This can limit the activity of SAR442257. Vactoserib, a TGF-ß inhibitor, was able to mitigate this effect and restore sensitivity to SAR442257 in these experiments. In conclusion, SAR442257 has high potential for enhancing TC cytotoxicity by co-targeting CD38 and CD28 on MM and CD3/CD28 on T cells.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: AL amyloidosis (AL) results from the misfolding of immunoglobulin light chains (IG LCs). Aim of this study was to comprehensively analyse kappa LC sequences from AL patients in comparison with multiple myeloma (MM). OBJECTIVE: We analysed IGKV/IGKJ usage and associated organ tropism and IGKV1/D-33 in terms of mutational analysis and theoretical biochemical properties. MATERIAL AND METHODS: cDNA and bulk RNA sequencing of the LCs of AL and MM patients. RESULTS: We studied 41 AL and 83 MM patients showing that IGKV1 was most expressed among kappa AL and MM, with higher frequency in AL (80% vs. 53%, p = .002). IGKV3 was underrepresented in AL (10% vs. 30%, p = .014). IGKJ2 was more commonly used in AL than in MM (39% vs. 29%). Patients with IGKV1/D-33 were associated with heart involvement (75%, p = .024). IGKV1/D-33-segments of AL had a higher mutation count (AL = 12.0 vs. MM = 10.0). FR3 and CDR3 were most frequently mutated in both, with a median mutation count in FR3 being the highest (AL = 4.0; MM = 3.5) and one mutation hotspot (FR3 (83I)) for IGKV1/D-33/IGKJ2 was associated with cardiac involvement. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed that germline usage has an influence on AL amyloidosis risk and organ involvement.

RESUMO

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) based on common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have identified several loci associated with the risk of monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS), a precursor condition for multiple myeloma (MM). We hypothesized that analyzing haplotypes might be more useful than analyzing individual SNPs, as it could identify functional chromosomal units that collectively contribute to MGUS risk. To test this hypothesis, we used data from our previous GWAS on 992 MGUS cases and 2910 controls from three European populations. We identified 23 haplotypes that were associated with the risk of MGUS at the genome-wide significance level (p < 5 × 10-8) and showed consistent results among all three populations. In 10 genomic regions, strong promoter, enhancer and regulatory element-related histone marks and their connections to target genes as well as genome segmentation data supported the importance of these regions in MGUS susceptibility. Several associated haplotypes affected pathways important for MM cell survival such as ubiquitin-proteasome system (RNF186, OTUD3), PI3K/AKT/mTOR (HINT3), innate immunity (SEC14L1, ZBP1), cell death regulation (BID) and NOTCH signaling (RBPJ). These pathways are important current therapeutic targets for MM, which may highlight the advantage of the haplotype approach homing to functional units.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The seroprevalence of antibodies against Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is an established poor prognostic factor for patients receiving an allogeneic stem cell transplantation. However, the impact of CMV serology on outcome after autologous stem cell transplantation remains unknown. METHODS: Here, we analyzed the CMV immunoglobulin (Ig) serology of 446 newly-diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) patients of the GMMG-MM5 phase III trial with a median follow-up of 58 months. RESULTS: CMV IgG and IgM positivity was seen in 51% and 6% of the patients, respectively. In multivariate analysis CMV IgG and CMV IgM serology show an age-depending effect for PFS. We identified positive CMV IgG/positive CMV IgM serology as an age-depending beneficial factor on PFS. DISCUSSION: Younger patients with a positive CMV IgG/positive CMV IgM serology experienced a favorable effect on PFS, whereas a positive CMV IgG/positive CMV IgM serology at older age has a disadvantageous effect on PFS.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The aim of this trial was to investigate the addition of the anti-SLAMF7 monoclonal antibody elotuzumab to lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (RVd) in induction and consolidation therapy as well as to lenalidomide maintenance treatment in transplant-eligible patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. METHODS: GMMG-HD6 was a phase 3, randomised trial conducted at 43 main trial sites and 26 associated trial sites throughout Germany. Adult patients (aged 18-70 years) with previously untreated, symptomatic multiple myeloma, and a WHO performance status of 0-3, with 3 being allowed only if caused by myeloma disease and not by comorbid conditions, were randomly assigned 1:1:1:1 to four treatment groups. Induction therapy consisted of four 21-day cycles of RVd (lenalidomide 25 mg orally on days 1-14; bortezomib 1·3 mg/m2 subcutaneously on days 1, 4, 8, and 11]; and dexamethasone 20 mg orally on days 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12, and 15 for cycles 1-2) or, RVd induction plus elotuzumab (10 mg/kg intravenously on days 1, 8, and 15 for cycles 1-2, and on days 1 and 11 for cycles 3-4; E-RVd). Autologous haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation was followed by two 21-day cycles of either RVd consolidation (lenalidomide 25 mg orally on days 1-14; bortezomib 1·3 mg/m2 subcutaneously on days 1, 8, and 15; and dexamethasone 20 mg orally on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16) or elotuzumab plus RVd consolidation (with elotuzumab 10 mg/kg intravenously on days 1, 8, and 15) followed by maintenance with either lenalidomide (10 mg orally on days 1-28 for cycles 1-3; thereafter, up to 15 mg orally on days 1-28; RVd/R or E-RVd/R group) or lenalidomide plus elotuzumab (10 mg/kg intravenously on days 1 and 15 for cycles 1-6, and on day 1 for cycles 7-26; RVd/E-R or E-RVd/E-R group) for 2 years. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival analysed in a modified intention-to-treat (ITT) population. Safety was analysed in all patients who received at least one dose of trial medication. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02495922, and is completed. FINDINGS: Between June 29, 2015, and on Sept 11, 2017, 564 patients were included in the trial. The modified ITT population comprised 559 (243 [43%] females and 316 [57%] males) patients and the safety population 555 patients. After a median follow-up of 49·8 months (IQR 43·7-55·5), there was no difference in progression-free survival between the four treatment groups (adjusted log-rank p value, p=0·86), and 3-year progression-free survival rates were 69% (95% CI 61-77), 69% (61-76), 66% (58-74), and 67% (59-75) for patients treated with RVd/R, RVd/E-R, E-RVd/R, and E-RVd/E-R, respectively. Infections (grade 3 or worse) were the most frequently observed adverse event in all treatment groups (28 [20%] of 137 for RVd/R; 32 [23%] of 138 for RVd/E-R; 35 [25%] of 138 for E-RVd/R; and 48 [34%] of 142 for E-RVd/E-R). Serious adverse events (grade 3 or worse) were observed in 68 (48%) of 142 participants in the E-RVd/E-R group, 53 (39%) of 137 in the RVd/R, 53 (38%) of 138 in the RVd/E-R, and 50 (36%) of 138 in the E-RVd/R (36%) group. There were nine treatment-related deaths during the study. Two deaths (one sepsis and one toxic colitis) in the RVd/R group were considered lenalidomide-related. One death in the RVd/E-R group due to meningoencephalitis was considered lenalidomide and elotuzumab-related. Four deaths (one pulmonary embolism, one septic shock, one atypical pneumonia, and one cardiovascular failure) in the E-RVd/R group and two deaths (one sepsis and one pneumonia and pulmonary fibrosis) in the E-RVd/E-R group were considered related to lenalidomide or elotuzumab, or both. INTERPRETATION: Addition of elotuzumab to RVd induction or consolidation and lenalidomide maintenance in patients with transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma did not provide clinical benefit. Elotuzumab-containing therapies might be reserved for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. FUNDING: Bristol Myers Squibb/Celgene and Chugai.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Outcomes for patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) are heterogenous, with overall survival (OS) ranging from months to over 10 years. METHODS: To decipher and predict the molecular and clinical heterogeneity of NDMM, we assembled a series of 1,933 patients with available clinical, genomic, and therapeutic data. RESULTS: Leveraging a comprehensive catalog of genomic drivers, we identified 12 groups, expanding on previous gene expression-based molecular classifications. To build a model predicting individualized risk in NDMM (IRMMa), we integrated clinical, genomic, and treatment variables. To correct for time-dependent variables, including high-dose melphalan followed by autologous stem-cell transplantation (HDM-ASCT), and maintenance therapy, a multi-state model was designed. The IRMMa model accuracy was significantly higher than all comparator prognostic models, with a c-index for OS of 0.726, compared with International Staging System (ISS; 0.61), revised-ISS (0.572), and R2-ISS (0.625). Integral to model accuracy was 20 genomic features, including 1q21 gain/amp, del 1p, TP53 loss, NSD2 translocations, APOBEC mutational signatures, and copy-number signatures (reflecting the complex structural variant chromothripsis). IRMMa accuracy and superiority compared with other prognostic models were validated on 256 patients enrolled in the GMMG-HD6 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02495922) clinical trial. Individualized patient risks were significantly affected across the 12 genomic groups by different treatment strategies (ie, treatment variance), which was used to identify patients for whom HDM-ASCT is particularly effective versus patients for whom the impact is limited. CONCLUSION: Integrating clinical, demographic, genomic, and therapeutic data, to our knowledge, we have developed the first individualized risk-prediction model enabling personally tailored therapeutic decisions for patients with NDMM.

RESUMO

Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable malignancy of plasma cells. Epidemiological studies indicate a substantial heritable component, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, in a genome-wide association study totaling 10,906 cases and 366,221 controls, we identify 35 MM risk loci, 12 of which are novel. Through functional fine-mapping and Mendelian randomization, we uncover two causal mechanisms for inherited MM risk: longer telomeres; and elevated levels of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) and interleukin-5 receptor alpha (IL5RA) in plasma. The largest increase in BCMA and IL5RA levels is mediated by the risk variant rs34562254-A at TNFRSF13B. While individuals with loss-of-function variants in TNFRSF13B develop B-cell immunodeficiency, rs34562254-A exerts a gain-of-function effect, increasing MM risk through amplified B-cell responses. Our results represent an analysis of genetic MM predisposition, highlighting causal mechanisms contributing to MM development.
