RESUMEN
A remarkably high rate of post-transplant relapse in patients with TP53-mutated myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia (MDS/AML) calls to question the utility of allogeneic stem cell transplant (HSCT). We, therefore, performed a retrospective analysis to compare the outcomes between HSCT (N = 38) versus non-HSCT (N = 45) approaches. Patients in the HSCT cohort were younger (median age 63 vs. 72) while patients in the non-HSCT cohort more commonly had complex karyotype with chromosome 17 aberrancy and 5q deletion (p < .01). A total of 69 TP53 variants including 64 pathogenic variants, and 5 variants of undetermined significance were detected. Nine patients (4 in HSCT and 5 in non-HSCT) had multi-hit TP53 variants. After induction: 57.9% versus 56.6% in the HSCT versus non-HSCT cohort achieved morphologic complete remission. Median time to HSCT was 6 months and median follow-up was 15.1 months for HSCT and 5.7 months for non-HSCT. Median disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were 11.7 and 15.9 months for HSCT, and 4.1 and 5.7 months for non-HSCT cohorts, respectively. Non-relapse mortality at 12 months was 22% versus 44% for HSCT versus non-HSCT. In the HSCT cohort, the rate of grade II-IV acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was 55% and 18%, respectively. None of the patients from the non-HSCT cohort were alive while four patients from the HSCT cohort were alive, in remission, and without GVHD (GRFS) at the time of abstraction. Better treatment strategies for patients with TP53-mutated MDS/AML remain an area of unmet clinical need.

Methotrexate (MTX) doses on days +1, +3, +6, and +11 after match unrelated donor allogeneic stem cell transplant (MUD HSCT) is a common graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen. However, the overlapping toxicity of MTX with conditioning chemotherapy sometimes warrants the omission of the fourth dose of MTX. Prior single-institution studies showed conflicting results comparing the outcomes of patients who received three versus four doses of MTX, but to our knowledge, the effect of concomitant antithymocyte globulin (ATG) has not been reported. Charts of patients who underwent MUD HSCT between 2009 and 2023 were reviewed. Patients received rabbit ATG (Thymoglobulin), given at 0.5 mg/kg on day -3, 2 mg/kg on day -2, and 2.5 mg/kg on day -1. MTX is given at 15 mg/m2 on day +1 and 10 mg/m2 on days +3, +6, and +11. Severe mucositis was the most common indication for day +11 MTX omission (82%). We identified 292 patients (116 in 3 dose cohort and 176 in 4 dose cohort). Median follow-up was 23 months (range 1-151). Patients in the 4 doses cohort were more frequently male (68% vs. 50%, p < 0.01), received a reduced intensity conditioning regimen (38.0% vs. 22%, p < 0.01), were older (median 58 vs. 54 years, p = 0.02), and received a transplant in the earlier era (median HSCT year 2014 vs. 2018, p < 0.01). A statistically significant difference was not evidenced between the cohorts for the following outcomes: acute GVHD (aGVHD) (HR 1.1, 95% CI 0.9-1.5), chronic GVHD (cGVHD) (HR 1.3, 95% CI 0.8-1.6), relapse-free survival (RFS) (HR 1.0, 95% CI 0.6-1.5), non-relapse mortality (NRM) (HR 1.4, 95% CI 0.9-2.2), and overall survival (OS) (HR 1.2, 95% CI 0.9-1.7). Both cohorts had similar median time to neutrophil engraftment at 14 days. When ATG is incorporated, omission of day +11 MTX does not significantly impact the rate of engraftment or cumulative incidence of aGVHD, cGVHD, RFS, NRM, and OS.
RESUMEN
Teclistamab is a B cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-directed bispecific antibody approved for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) on the basis of the phase I/II MajesTEC-1 trial. Here we report clinical outcomes with standard-of-care teclistamab in a real-world RRMM population. A total of 106 patients from 5 academic centers who received teclistamab from August 2022 to August 2023 were included in this retrospective analysis, 83% of whom would have been considered ineligible for the MajesTEC-1 trial. All patients were triple-class exposed, 64% were penta-class refractory, and 53% had received prior BCMA-directed therapy. Cytokine release syndrome was observed in 64% of patients, and only 1 event was grade ≥3, whereas immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome was observed in 14% of patients (3 events were grade 3 or 4). One-third (31%) of patients experienced at least 1 infection, with nearly half of these infections graded as severe (grade ≥3). The overall response rate (ORR) was 66%, and the complete or better response rate was 29%. The ORR was 47% for patients with extramedullary disease (EMD), 59% for patients with prior BCMA-directed therapy exposure, and 68% for patients with penta-refractory disease. At a median follow-up of 3.8 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.4 months (95% CI, 3.4 months to not reached), while median overall survival was not reached. Patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status ≥2, EMD, and age ≤70 years had inferior PFS on multivariable analysis. Our study demonstrates reasonable safety and good efficacy of teclistamab in patients with RRMM treated in a real-world setting.

Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has been a mainstay in myeloma treatment for over three decades, but patient prognosis post-ASCT varies significantly. In a retrospective study of 5259 patients with multiple myeloma (MM) at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences undergoing ASCT with a median 57-month follow-up, we divided the dataset into training (70%) and validation (30%) subsets. Employing univariable and multivariable Cox analyses, we systematically assessed 29 clinical variables, identifying crucial adverse prognostic factors, such as extended duration between MM diagnosis and ASCT, elevated serum ferritin, and reduced transferrin levels. These factors could enhance existing prognostic models. Additionally, we pinpointed significant poor prognosis markers like high serum calcium and low platelet counts, though they are applicable to a smaller patient population. Utilizing seven easily accessible high-risk variables, we devised a four-stage system (ATM4S) with primary stage borders determined through K-adaptive partitioning. This staging system underwent validation in both the training dataset and an independent cohort of 514 ASCT-treated MM patients from the University of Iowa. We also explored cytogenetic risk factors within this staging system, emphasizing its potential clinical utility for refining prognostic assessments and guiding personalized treatment approaches.
