RESUMEN

ABSTRACT: Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) grading systems that use only clinical symptoms at treatment initiation such as the Minnesota risk identify standard and high-risk categories but lack a low-risk category suitable to minimize immunosuppressive strategies. We developed a new grading system that includes a low-risk stratum based on clinical symptoms alone and determined whether the incorporation of biomarkers would improve the model's prognostic accuracy. We randomly divided 1863 patients in the Mount Sinai Acute GVHD International Consortium (MAGIC) who were treated for GVHD into training and validation cohorts. Patients in the training cohort were divided into 14 groups based on similarity of clinical symptoms and similar nonrelapse mortality (NRM); we used a classification and regression tree (CART) algorithm to create three Manhattan risk groups that produced a significantly higher area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for 6-month NRM than the Minnesota risk classification (0.69 vs 0.64, P = .009) in the validation cohort. We integrated serum GVHD biomarker scores with Manhattan risk using patients with available serum samples and again used a CART algorithm to establish 3 MAGIC composite scores that significantly improved prediction of NRM compared to Manhattan risk (AUC, 0.76 vs 0.70, P = .010). Each increase in MAGIC composite score also corresponded to a significant decrease in day 28 treatment response (80% vs 63% vs 30%, P < .001). We conclude that the MAGIC composite score more accurately predicts response to therapy and long-term outcomes than systems based on clinical symptoms alone and may help guide clinical decisions and trial design.

RESUMEN

The standard primary treatment for acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) requires prolonged, high-dose systemic corticosteroids (SCSs) that delay reconstitution of the immune system. We used validated clinical and biomarker staging criteria to identify a group of patients with low-risk (LR) GVHD that is very likely to respond to SCS. We hypothesized that itacitinib, a selective JAK1 inhibitor, would effectively treat LR GVHD without SCS. We treated 70 patients with LR GVHD in a multicenter, phase 2 trial (NCT03846479) with 28 days of itacitinib 200 mg/d (responders could receive a second 28-day cycle), and we compared their outcomes to those of 140 contemporaneous, matched control patients treated with SCSs. More patients responded to itacitinib within 7 days (81% vs 66%, P = .02), and response rates at day 28 were very high for both groups (89% vs 86%, P = .67), with few symptomatic flares (11% vs 12%, P = .88). Fewer itacitinib-treated patients developed a serious infection within 90 days (27% vs 42%, P = .04) due to fewer viral and fungal infections. Grade ≥3 cytopenias were similar between groups except for less severe leukopenia with itacitinib (16% vs 31%, P = .02). No other grade ≥3 adverse events occurred in >10% of itacitinib-treated patients. There were no significant differences between groups at 1 year for nonrelapse mortality (4% vs 11%, P = .21), relapse (18% vs 21%, P = .64), chronic GVHD (28% vs 33%, P = .33), or survival (88% vs 80%, P = .11). Itacitinib monotherapy seems to be a safe and effective alternative to SCS treatment for LR GVHD and deserves further investigation.

RESUMEN

Rationale: Pulmonary complications contribute significantly to nonrelapse mortality following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT). Identifying patients at high risk can help enroll such patients into clinical studies to better understand, prevent, and treat posttransplantation respiratory failure syndromes. Objectives: To develop and validate a prediction model to identify those at increased risk of acute respiratory failure after HCT. Methods: Patients underwent HCT between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2021, at one of three institutions. Those treated in Rochester, MN, formed the derivation cohort, and those treated in Scottsdale, AZ, or Jacksonville, FL, formed the validation cohort. The primary outcome was the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), with secondary outcomes including the need for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) and/or noninvasive ventilation (NIV). Predictors were based on prior case-control studies. Measurements and Main Results: Of 2,450 patients undergoing stem cell transplantation, there were 1,718 hospitalizations (888 patients) in the training cohort and 1,005 hospitalizations (470 patients) in the test cohort. A 22-point model was developed, with 11 points from prehospital predictors and 11 points from posttransplantation or early (<24-h) in-hospital predictors. The model performed well in predicting ARDS (C-statistic, 0.905; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.870-0.941) and the need for IMV and/or NIV (C-statistic, 0.863; 95% CI, 0.828-0.898). The test cohort differed markedly in demographic, medical, and hematologic characteristics. The model also performed well in this setting in predicting ARDS (C-statistic, 0.841; 95% CI, 0.782-0.900) and the need for IMV and/or NIV (C-statistic, 0.872; 95% CI, 0.831-0.914). Conclusions: A novel prediction model incorporating data elements from the pretransplantation, posttransplantation, and early in-hospital domains can reliably predict the development of post-HCT acute respiratory failure.

RESUMEN

Venetoclax (VEN) is an FDA-approved selective inhibitor of B-cell leukaemia/lymphoma-2 (BCL-2), used for treating elderly or unfit acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients unable to undergo intensive chemotherapy. Combining VEN with hypomethylating agents (HMAs) has shown impressive response rates in high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and relapsed/refractory AML. However, the efficacy of VEN and HMAs in treating DDX41-mutated (mDDX41) MDS/AML patients remains uncertain. Despite the favourable prognostic nature of mDDX41 MDS/AML patients, there is a lack of clinical experience regarding their response to different treatment regimens, leading to an unknown optimal therapeutic approach.

RESUMEN

Among 301 newly diagnosed patients with acute myeloid leukaemia receiving venetoclax and a hypomethylating agent, 23 (7.6%) experienced major cardiac complications: 15 cardiomyopathy, 5 non-ST elevation myocardial infarction and/or 7 pericarditis/effusions. Four patients had more than one cardiac complication. Baseline characteristics included median age ± interquartile range; 73 ± 5 years; 87% males; 96% with cardiovascular risk factors; and 90% with preserved baseline ejection fraction. In multivariate analysis, males were more likely (p = 0.02) and DNMT3A-mutated cases less likely (p < 0.01) to be affected. Treatment-emergent cardiac events were associated with a trend towards lower composite remission rates (43% vs. 62%; p = 0.09) and shorter survival (median 7.7 vs. 13.2 months; p < 0.01). These observations were retrospectively retrieved and warrant further prospective examination.

RESUMEN

The revised 4th edition of the World Health Organization (WHO4R) classification lists myelodysplastic syndromes with ring sideroblasts (MDS-RS) as a separate entity with single lineage (MDS-RS-SLD) or multilineage (MDS-RS-MLD) dysplasia. The more recent International Consensus Classification (ICC) distinguishes between MDS with SF3B1 mutation (MDS-SF3B1) and MDS-RS without SF3B1 mutation; the latter is instead included under the category of MDS not otherwise specified. The current study includes 170 Mayo Clinic patients with WHO4R-defined MDS-RS, including MDS-RS-SLD (N=83) and MDS-RSMLD (N=87); a subset of 145 patients were also evaluable for the presence of SF3B1 and other mutations, including 126 with (87%) and 19 (13%) without SF3B1 mutation. Median overall survival for all 170 patients was 6.6 years with 5- and 10-year survival rates of 59% and 25%, respectively. A significant difference in overall survival was apparent between MDS-RS-MLD and MDS-RS-SLD (P<0.01) but not between MDS-RS with and without SF3B1 mutation (P=0.36). Multivariable analysis confirmed the independent prognostic contribution of MLD (hazard ratio=1.8, 95% confidence interval: 1.1-2.8; P=0.01) and also identified age (P<0.01), transfusion need at diagnosis (P<0.01), and abnormal karyotype (P<0.01), as additional risk factors; the impact from SF3B1 or other mutations was not significant. Leukemia-free survival was independently affected by abnormal karyotype (P<0.01), RUNX1 (P=0.02) and IDH1 (P=0.01) mutations, but not by MLD or SF3B1 mutation. Exclusion of patients not meeting ICC-criteria for MDS-SF3B1 did not change the observations on overall survival. MLD-based, as opposed to SF3B1 mutation-based, disease classification for MDS-RS might be prognostically more relevant.

RESUMEN

The BCL6-corepressor (BCOR) is a tumor-suppressor gene located on the short arm of chromosome X. Data are limited regarding factors predicting survival in BCOR-mutated (mBCOR) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). We evaluated 138 patients with mBCOR myeloid disorders, of which 36 (26.1%) had AML and 63 (45.6%) had MDS. Sixty-six (47.8%) patients had a normal karyotype while 18 (13%) patients had complex karyotype. BCOR-mutated MDS/AML were highly associated with RUNX1 and U2AF1 co-mutations. In contrast, TP53 mutation was infrequently seen with mBCOR MDS. Patients with an isolated BCOR mutation had similar survival compared to those with high-risk co-mutations by European LeukemiaNet (ELN) 2022 criteria (median OS 1.16 vs. 1.27 years, P=0.46). Complex karyotype adversely impacted survival among mBCOR AML/MDS (HR 4.12, P<0.001), while allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloSCT) improved survival (HR 0.38, P=0.04). However, RUNX1 co-mutation was associated with an increased risk of post-alloSCT relapse (HR 88.0, P=0.02), whereas melphalan-based conditioning was associated with a decreased relapse risk (HR 0.02, P=0.01). We conclude that mBCOR is a high-risk feature across MDS/AML, and that alloSCT improves survival in this population.

RESUMEN

The World Health Organization (WHO) classification system categorizes advanced systemic mastocytosis (SM-Adv) into aggressive SM (ASM), mast cell leukemia (MCL), and SM with associated hematological neoplasm (SM-AHN). By contrast, the International Consensus Classification (ICC) requires "immature" MC cytomorphology for the diagnosis of MCL and limits SM-AHN to myeloid neoplasms (SM-AMN). The current study includes 329 patients with SM-Adv (median age 65 years, range 18-88; males 58%): WHO subcategories SM-AHN (N = 212; 64%), ASM (N = 99; 30%), and MCL (N = 18; 6%); ICC subcategories SM-AMN (N = 190; 64%), ASM (N = 99; 33%), and MCL (N = 9; 3%); WHO-defined MCL with "mature" MC cytomorphology and SM-AHN associated with lymphoid neoplasms were operationally labeled as "MCL-mature" (N = 9) and SM-ALN (N = 22), respectively, and distinguished from ICC-defined MCL and SM-AMN. Multivariable analysis that included the Mayo alliance risk factors for survival in SM (age >60 years, anemia, thrombocytopenia, increased alkaline phosphatase) revealed more accurate survival prediction with the ICC versus WHO classification order: (i) survival was significantly worse with MCL-immature versus MCL-mature (hazard ratio [HR] 15; p < .01), (ii) prognostic distinction between MCL and SM-AHN/AMN was confirmed in the context of ICC (HR 9.3; p < .01) but not WHO classification order (p = .99), (iii) survival was similar between MCL-mature and SM-AMN (p = .18), and (iv) SM-AMN (HR 1.7; p < .01) but not SM-ALN (p = .37) was prognostically distinct from ASM. The current study provides evidence for the independent prognostic contribution of both the ICC system for SM-Adv and the Mayo alliance risk factors for survival in SM.

RESUMEN

We report a comparative analysis of patients with therapy-related acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (tr-ALL) vs de novo ALL. We identified 331 patients with B-ALL; 69 (21%) were classified as tr-ALL. The most common prior malignancies were breast (23·2%) and plasma cell disorders (20·3%). Patients with tr-ALL were older (median 63·2 vs. 46·2 years, P < 0.001), more often female (66·7% vs. 43·5%, P < 0·001), and more likely to have hypodiploid cytogenetics (18·8% vs. 5·0%, P < 0·001). In multivariable analysis, patients with tr-ALL were less likely to achieve complete remission [odds ratio (OR) = 0·16, P < 0·001] and more likely to be minimal residual disease-positive (OR = 4·86, P = 0·01) but had similar OS after diagnosis and allo-haematopoietic cell transplantation.

RESUMEN

The current study was approached with the assumption that response to induction chemotherapy, in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), overshadows pre-treatment risk variables in predicting survival and therefore be used as an anchor for a simplified risk model. We considered 759 intensively-treated patients with AML, not promyelocytic: median age 60 years; primary 66%, secondary 25%, and therapy-related 9%; European LeukemiaNet cytogenetic risk category favorable 8%, intermediate 61%, and adverse 31%. Complete remission with (CR) or without (CRi) count recovery was achieved in 608 (80%) patients. After a median follow-up of 22 months, 503 deaths, 272 relapses, and 257 allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplants (AHSCTs) were recorded. Multivariable analysis identified failure to achieve CR/CRi (HR 3.8, 95% CI 3.1-4.8), adverse karyotype (2.2, 1.8-2.8), and age >55 years (2.1, 1.6-2.7) as main risk factors for survival. HR-weighted scoring resulted in four-tiered risk stratification: low (0 points; N = 183), intermediate-1 (1 point; N = 331), intermediate-2 (2 points; N = 117), and high (≥3 points; N = 128), with respective median survival (5-year rate) not reached (68%), 34 (37%), 13 (20%), and 5 (5%) months (p < .001). FLT3-ITD mutation was associated with inferior survival in intermediate-1 (p = .004) and TP53 in intermediate-2 (p = .06) and high (p = .02) risk disease; the latter was fully accounted for by the close association between TP53 mutation and complex/monosomal karyotype while the observations regarding FLT3-ITD were not affected by treatment with midostaurin. AHSCT had a favorable impact on survival, most apparent in intermediate-1 (p < .001), intermediate-2 (p = .03), and high (p = .01) risk disease. The proposed 3-factor survival model offers a novel prototype that is amenable to further enhancement by molecular information and was validated in an external cohort of 1032 intensively-treated AML patients.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Orally administered tacrolimus is widely used in hematopoietic cell transplant patients, but multiple clinical situations may arise rendering oral administration infeasible. The undesirable sequelae of intravenous administration, including toxicity, challenges with administration and cost call for innovative solutions to conserve existing supply and optimize safety and efficacy of medication delivery. We sought to demonstrate feasibility of sublingual tacrolimus use and estimate a sublingual-to-oral (SL:PO) conversion ratio in the hematopoietic cell transplant setting. METHODS: Ten adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant received tacrolimus 0.04 mg/kg/dose twice daily. Initial doses were given via sublingual route and a steady state trough level was collected after 4 consecutive doses. Participants were then switched to oral tacrolimus, the dose adjusted for a goal trough 8-12ng/mL, and another steady state trough was drawn. Total daily dose was divided by trough concentration for each route to determine the dosing ratio of SL:PO. RESULTS: Median trough level following sublingual administration was 11.3 ng/mL. Three of these were within goal, 3 were low (4.7-6.4 ng/mL) and 4 were elevated (15.9-18.6 ng/mL). Median SL:PO ratio was 1.02. In 5 participants the SL:PO ratio was <1 (range 0.57-0.94) and in 5 the ratio was ≥1 (range 1.10-1.92). No significant barriers or intolerance to sublingual tacrolimus use were noted. CONCLUSIONS: Results demonstrate reliable absorption with sublingual tacrolimus use in patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplant. Sublingual administration may allow for avoidance of the undesirable complications of IV tacrolimus, such as increased toxicities, required hospitalization for continuous infusion, risk of dose conversion and dilution errors and increased cost.Trial Registry name: Use of Sublingual Tacrolimus in Adult Blood and Marrow Transplant Patients, NCT04041219https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04041219?term=NCT04041219&draw=2&rank=1.

RESUMEN

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a common complication after peripheral blood stem cell or bone marrow transplantation, rarely occurs in kidney and pancreas transplant recipients. The true incidence may be confounded by the rarity of the disorder, with a resultant lack of appreciation of the diagnosis as a potential cause of common clinical manifestations such as cytopenias and immune dysfunction. Reports of GVHD in kidney and pancreas transplant recipients almost uniformly describe patients in the early posttransplant period (days to months) with the typical manifestations of acute GVHD involving the skin, liver, and intestines. In contrast, reports of solid organ transplant recipients with clinical features more consistent with chronic GVHD (cGVHD) are lacking, raising concern of underrecognition of this severe complication. Occurrence later after transplant may be even more likely to result in lack of recognition. We report 2 cases of possible cGVHD occurring in recipients of pancreas after kidney transplantation, which were diagnosed at 5.5 and 42 months after pancreas transplant. Both patients presented with severe pancytopenia, multiple opportunistic infections, and features suggestive of cGVHD. Transplant professionals should be aware of the possibility of acute and cGVHD in pancreas after kidney transplant recipients and be able to recognize the clinical manifestations.

RESUMEN

Institutional database search (1999-2020) for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) identified 109 cases of myeloid sarcoma (MS), of which 19 were isolated and presented de novo. The latter displayed longer survival (median 78 months), compared to MS with synchronous intramedullary AML (n = 32; median 16 months) and de novo AML without MS (n = 729; median 22 months; P = 0·13). However, the difference in survival was no longer apparent after accounting for bone marrow cytogenetic risk status (P = 0·67). Treatment-induced MS tumour resolution was not affected by the presence of intramedullary disease (P = 0·61). The current study clarifies the prognosis of de novo isolated MS, in the context of AML.

RESUMEN

We have used a non-myeloablative conditioning regimen for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation for the past twenty years. During that period, changes in clinical practice have been aimed at reducing morbidity and mortality from infections, organ toxicity, and graft-versus-host disease. We hypothesized that improvements in clinical practice led to better transplantation outcomes over time. From 1997-2017, 1,720 patients with hematologic malignancies received low-dose total body irradiation +/- fludarabine or clofarabine before transplantation from HLA-matched sibling or unrelated donors, followed by mycophenolate mofetil and a calcineurin inhibitor ± sirolimus. We compared outcomes in three cohorts by year of transplantation: 1997 +/- 2003 (n=562), 2004 +/- 2009 (n=594), and 2010 +/- 2017 (n=564). The proportion of patients ≥60 years old increased from 27% in 1997 +/- 2003 to 56% in 2010-2017, and with scores from the Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Comborbidity Index of ≥3 increased from 25% in 1997 +/- 2003 to 45% in 2010 +/- 2017. Use of unrelated donors increased from 34% in 1997 +/- 2003 to 65% in 2010-2017. When outcomes from 2004 +/- 2009 and 2010-2017 were compared to 1997 +/- 2003, improvements were noted in overall survival (P=.0001 for 2004-2009 and P <.0001 for 2010-2017), profression-free survival (P=.002 for 2004-2009 and P <.0001 for 2010 +/- 2017), non-relapse mortality (P<.0001 for 2004 +/- 2009 and P <.0001 for 2010 +/- 2017), and in rates of grades 2 +/- 4 acute and chronic graft-vs.-host disease. For patients with hematologic malignancies who underwent transplantation with non-myeloablative conditioning, outcomes have improved during the past two decades.

RESUMEN

Germline predisposition syndromes (GPS) result from constitutional aberrations in tumor suppressive and homeostatic genes, increasing risk for neoplasia in affected kindred. In this study, we present clinical and genomic data on 144 Mayo Clinic patients with GPS; 59 evaluated prospectively using an algorithm-based diagnostic approach in the setting of a dedicated GPS/ inherited bone marrow failure syndrome (IBMFS) clinic. Seventy-two (50%) patients had IBMFS (telomere biology disorders-32,Fanconi anemia-18, Diamond Blackfan Anemia - 11, congenital neutropenia-5, Schwachman-Diamond Syndrome-5 and Bloom Syndrome-1), 27 (19%) had GPS with antecedent thrombocytopenia (RUNX1-FPD-15, ANKRD26-6, ETV6-2, GATA1-1, MPL-3), 28 (19%) had GPS without antecedent thrombocytopenia (GATA2 haploinsufficiency-16, DDX41-10, CBL-1 and CEBPA-1) and 17 (12%) had general cancer predisposition syndromes (ataxia telangiectasia-7, heterozygous ATM variants-3, CHEK2-2, TP53-2, CDK2NA-1, NF1-1 and Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome-1). Homozygous and heterozygous ATM pathogenic variants were exclusively associated with lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD), while DDX41 GPS was associated with LPD and myeloid neoplasms. The use of somatic NGS-testing identified clonal evolution in GPS patients, with ASXL1, RAS pathway genes, SRSF2 and TET2 being most frequently mutated. Fifty-two (91%) of 59 prospectively identified GPS patients had a change in their management approach, including additional GPS-related screening in 42 (71%), referral for allogenic HSCT workup and screening of related donors in 16 (27%), medication initiation and selection of specific conditioning regimens in 14 (24%), and genetic counseling with specific intent of fertility preservation and preconceptual counseling in 10 (17%) patients; highlighting the importance of dedicated GPS screening, detection and management programs for patients with hematological neoplasms.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Neutropenia is a risk factor for development of infections; however, the direct effect of neutropenia on development of bloodstream infection (BSI) is not known. D-index, which is area between the neutrophil time curve and a neutrophil count of 0.5 × 109 /L, incorporates the combined effect of severity and duration of neutropenia. We aimed to evaluate whether D-index can be used as a marker for BSI in patients with allogeneic stem cell transplantation. METHOD: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation between January 1, 2005, and September 30, 2015. The primary outcome measure was the development of BSI within 30 days of transplantation. RESULTS: A total of 714 patients were included in the study of whom 101 developed BSI. Patients with BSI had a significantly higher median D-index value compared with patients who did not have BSI (4990 vs. 3570, P < .001). As a marker, the performance of the D-index was similar to that of the duration of profound neutropenia (P = .18) and significantly better than the total duration of neutropenia (P = .001). CONCLUSION: The D-index performed better than the total duration of neutropenia as a marker for BSI in patients with allogeneic stem cell transplantation. There was no difference between D-index and, a more easily calculable indicator, duration of profound neutropenia.

RESUMEN

The prognostic impact of increased beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) in patients with light chain (AL) amyloidosis undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is unknown. The Mayo 2012 stage and increased bone marrow plasma cell (BMPC) percentage are known predictors for survival. Increased B2M is predictive of survival in patients with multiple myeloma. We evaluated the prognostic role of B2M in patients with newly diagnosed AL undergoing ASCT. We retrospectively reviewed patients with a diagnosis of AL amyloidosis who were treated with ASCT between July 1996 and September 2017. Patients with a creatinine level >1.2 mg/dL were excluded, because that affects B2M levels. The receiver operator characteristic curve was used to determine the best cutoff for B2M before ASCT in predicting survival, which was 2.5 µg/mL, which was also the upper limit of normal in our laboratory. Baseline characteristics were compared between patients with B2M >2.5 µg/mL and ≤2.5 µg/mL. Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from ASCT to relapse or death, whichever occurred first. Overall survival (OS) was calculated from the time of ASCT to death of any cause. Univariate and multivariate analyses were done for OS. Five hundred and ten patients were identified, 222 of whom (44%) had a B2M >2.5 µg/mL. These patients were more likely to be older (median age, 61 versus 57 years; P = .0002), to have Mayo 2012 stage III/IV disease (33% versus 8%; P < .0001), to have more than 2 organs involved (25% versus 14%; P = .001), and to have ≥10% BMPCs (56% versus 40%; P = .0002) compared with patients with B2M ≤2.5 µg/mL. The median PFS and OS were shorter in patients with B2M >2.5 µg/mL (median PFS, 64 months versus 80 months [P = .03]; median OS, 104.9 months versus 175.5 months [P < .0001]). On univariate analysis, predictors for OS included age >60 years (hazard ratio [HR], 1.61; P = .001), Mayo 2012 stage III/IV (HR, 3.36; P < .0001), more than 2 organs involved (HR, 1.36; P = .07), ≥10% BMPCs (HR, 1.5; P = .005), melphalan conditioning with 200 mg/m2 (HR, .29; P < .0001), B2M >2.5 µg/mL (HR, 1.82; P < .0001), and transplantation during or after 2010 (HR, .4; P = .0006). On multivariate analysis, only Mayo 2012 stage III/IV (HR, 1.89; P = .005), melphalan conditioning with 200 mg/m2 (HR, .39; P < .0001), B2M >2.5 µg/mL (HR, 1.84; P = .003), and transplantation performed during or after 2010 (HR, .58; P = .03) remained independent predictors of OS. Our findings identify B2M >2.5 µg/dL before ASCT as an independent predictor for OS in patients with AL amyloidosis and normal kidney function and should be routinely measured.

RESUMEN

Tumour lysis syndrome (TLS) is a significant complication of haematologic malignancies and their management. The syndrome consists of laboratory abnormalities either alone (laboratory TLS) or with clinical sequelae including renal failure, seizures, and arrhythmias (clinical TLS). Clinical TLS is a predictor for worse overall morbidity and mortality in cancer patients, but can be prevented. Thus, accurate prognostication is critical to appropriate management of patients at risk for TLS, and incorporates both disease factors (tumour type and burden) and patient factors (baseline renal insufficiency or hyperuricaemia). Strategies to prevent TLS include hydration and allopurinol in low- and intermediate-risk patients and rasburicase in high-risk patients.
