Elevated Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte ratio at Day+100 is Associated With Decreased Progression-Free Survival After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Multiple Myeloma

Abstract Introduction: The role of frontline autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is still controversial. We investigated the role of upfront ASCT as consolidation for high-risk DLBCL treated with rituximab containing chemotherapy according to molecular classification. Methods: A total of 195 newly diagnosed DLBCL patients with advanced stage and elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase from three centers were retrospectively analyzed. All patients achieved more than partial response (PR) after completing conventional chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone) with rituximab (R-CHOP). Molecular classification was performed according to Han's algorithm. Results: One hundred fifty (76.9%) patients achieved complete response (CR) and 45 (23.1%) patients PR after frontline R-CHOP chemotherapy. Among these patients, sixty six (33.8%) patients were received ASCT. The 2-year overall survival (OS) was 82.9% and the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 72.1%. Seven (10.6%) patients were relapsed after ASCT while 29 (22.5%) patients were relapsed in non-transplant patients. Patients who treated with ASCT showed superior OS and PFS (P=0.036, P=0.005). According to final response, ASCT showed superior OS and PFS in PR patients (P = 0.024, P = 0.009) while it did not in CR patients. Among the 128 patients that underwent immunohistochemistry for molecular classification, 36 patients (28.1%) were classified to GCB type, 92 (72.9%) patients were non-GCB type. Twenty five (27.1%) non-GCB patients received ASCT showed significant survival benefit for OS and PFS (P=0.032, P=0.011) while GCB patients did not show the survival difference according to ASCT (Figure 1). In non-GCB DLBCL, ASCT was related with superior PFS both interim and final PR status (P = 0.006, P=0.028). There was no difference for OS and PFS between GCB and non-GCB type in ASCT patients while GCB patients showed superior OS and PFS in non-transplant patients (P = 0.048, P=0.009). Conclusions: ASCT as consolidation improved OS and PFS in high risk DLBCL patients following R-CHOP chemotherapy. Especially, it could overcome the poor prognosis of non-GCB type DLBCL. Upfront ASCT could be considered effective treatment options for non-GCB type high risk DLBCL. Figure 1.

Day 100 prognostic factors of postautologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (APBHSCT) to predict clinical outcome in classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) patients have not been evaluated. Thus, we studied if the day 100 peripheral blood absolute lymphocyte/monocyte ratio (Day 100 ALC/AMC) affects clinical outcomes by landmark analysis from day 100 post-APBHSCT. Only cHL patients achieving a complete remission at day 100 post-APBHSCT were studied. From 2000 to 2010, 131 cHL consecutive patients qualified for the study. The median followup from day 100 was 4.1 years (range: 0.2–12.3 years). Patients with a Day 100 ALC/AMC ≥ 1.3 experienced superior overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) compared with Day 100 ALC/AMC < 1.3 (from day 100: OS, median not reached versus 2.8 years; 5 years OS rates of 93% (95% CI, 83%–97%) versus 35% (95% CI, 19%–51%), resp., P<0.0001; from day 100: PFS, median not reached versus 1.2 years; 5 years PFS rates of 79% (95% CI, 69%–86%) versus 27% (95% CI, 14%–45%), resp., P<0.0001). Day ALC/AMC ratio was an independent predictor for OS and PFS. Thus, Day 100 ALC/AMC ratio is a simple biomarker that can help to assess clinical outcomes from day 100 post-APBHSCT in cHL patients.

Abstract Introduction Multiple myeloma (MM) in very young patients is uncommon, and no treatment guidelines exist for these patients. Patients and Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of five very young myeloma patients who underwent tandem autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Results The median age was 37 years (range = 34–40 years). A median of two leukapheresis was performed (range = 1–4). The median number of hematopoietic stem cells collected was 5.4 × 106/kg (4.4–8.2 × 106/kg). During first transplant, four patients received melphalan of 200 mg/m2 and one patient received melphalan of 140 mg/m2 (due to renal failure) as conditioning regimen. Second transplant conditioning was melphalan of 200 mg/m2 for one patient and melphalan of 140 mg/m2 for remaining four patients. Two patients were in complete remission, and two were in very good partial remission and one patient progressed to active disease at the time of tandem autologous bone marrow transplant. All patients developed significant mucositis. Neutrophil and platelet recovery was longer in tandem autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant. More viral infections were seen in tandem transplant. Day 30 and day 100 mortality was nil. Conclusion We present data on tandem autologous HSCTs in very young patients with MM in India. Responses continued to improve in this small series.
