RESUMO

First-line therapy for younger patients with peripheral T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (T-NHL) consists of 6 courses of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) with or without etoposide (CHOEP), consolidated by high-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT). We hypothesized that allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) could improve outcomes. 104 patients with peripheral T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, except ALK+ anaplastic large cell lymphoma, 18 to 60 years, all stages, and all age adjusted International Prognostic Index scores, except 0 and stage I, were randomized to 4 cycles of CHOEP and 1 cycle of dexamethasone, cytosine-arabinoside, and platinum (DHAP) followed by high-dose therapy and auto-SCT or myeloablative conditioning and allo-SCT. The primary end point was event-free survival (EFS) at 3 years. After a median follow-up of 42 months, the 3-year EFS after allo-SCT was 43%, as compared with 38% after auto-SCT. Overall survival at 3 years was 57% vs 70% after allo- or auto-SCT, without significant differences between treatment arms. None of the 21 responding patients proceeding to allo-SCT relapsed, as opposed to 13 of 36 patients (36%) proceeding to auto-SCT. Eight of 26 patients (31%) and none of 41 patients died of transplant-related toxicity after allo- and auto-SCT, respectively. The strong graft-versus-lymphoma effect after allo-SCT was counterbalanced by transplant-related mortality. This trial is registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT00984412.

RESUMO

POEMS syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by polyneuropathy, monoclonal gammopathy, multiorgan involvement, and elevated vascular endothelial growth factor levels. Localized bone lesions require irradiation, whereas young patients with disseminated disease receive intensive treatment with stem cell support. Treatment of older and non responding patients is not yet standardized. We report the use of a combination of lenalidomide and dexamethasone in 20 patients with POEMS syndrome. Four patients were newly diagnosed, and 16 had relapsed or progressed after treatment. All but one of the patients responded: clinical improvements were noted in neuropathies (16/20) organomegaly (13/13), peripheral edema (14/15), and pulmonary hypertension (5/5). At least a very good partial response was noted in 68% of patients, with partial responses in 26%. Serum VEGF levels fell markedly in all 17 patients with available values. Twelve patients had 18-FDG-PET/CT at diagnosis (11 with positive findings), and nine patients during follow-up. The number of lesions fell markedly in five cases and remained stable in two cases, while two patients became negative. During a median follow-up of 22 months, four patients relapsed. Toxicity, predominantly hematological, was mild and manageable. Lenalidomide thus appears to be effective in POEMS syndrome, inducing high rate of clinical and biological responses.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of high-dose chemotherapy (HDT) followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) on bone turnover and bone mineral density in a cohort of 39 consecutive patients with multiple myeloma (MM). METHODS: Phosphorus and calcium parameters, bone turnover markers, and bone mineral density were studied. Timepoints were diagnosis (T1), just before ASCT (T2), 6 months (T3) after ASCT, and 1 yr (T4) after ASCT. RESULTS: No bone mineral loss was shown on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at T1 (lumbar Z-score -0.02, femoral neck Z-score 0.77) or during follow-up. Chronic vitamin D deficiency (25OHD3 11.7 ± 7.7 ng/mL at T1) and relative hyperparathyroidism from T2 to T4 were observed. In spite of this moderate hyperparathyroidism, serum C-telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX) decreased significantly between T1 and T4. Bone alkaline phosphatase levels were low at diagnosis and showed no significant change after ASCT, unlike DKK1 levels that were high at diagnosis and decreased 6 months after ASCT in patients not previously treated with bisphosphonates. CONCLUSION: Bone demineralization is moderate in multiple myeloma. ASCT induces a decrease in bone resorption but no changes in bone formation, remaining low despite the decrease in DKK1. Bone mineral loss, evaluated by DXA, is moderate in multiple myeloma. High-dose chemotherapy followed by ASCT leads to decreased bone resorption but osteoblastic bone formation remains low, in spite of reduced circulating DKK1.
