ABSTRACT
This nationwide multicentre retrospective study was performed to analyze clinical features that predict the prognosis of central nervous system invasion in multiple myeloma (CNS-MM, approximately 1% of MM). Overall, of the 77 adult patients with CNS-MM identified between 2005 and 2016, those diagnosed at MM diagnosis (n = 3) had longer overall survival (OS) than those diagnosed at relapse (n = 74; median 48·5 vs 2·7 months). Therefore, we compared the relapsed MM with CNS-MM in patients with any treatment (n = 60). Multivariate analyses revealed that lenalidomide treatment [hazard ratio (HR) 0·27, P = 0·003], intrathecal chemotherapy (IT; HR 0·54, P = 0·05), and radiation therapy (RTx; HR 0·33, P < 0·001) for CNS-MM had a positive effect on longer OS. These factors were used to develop a scoring system combining the number of treatments with lenalidomide, IT, and RTx (0, 1, 2, 3). The OS of CNS-MM patients was stratified based on these factors, with a median OS of 1·1, 4·5, and 7·5 months for patients with zero, one, two to three favourable features, respectively (0 vs 1, P = 0·0002; 1 vs 2-3, P = 0·08). Multimodal treatment including lenalidomide in addition to conventional IT and RTx can improve OS.
