Abstract Abstract 4554 High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is currently standard treatment for younger patients with multiple myeloma, resulting in improved survival and response rate compared to conventional chemotherapy. Disease relapse, however, remains almost inevitable and thus the role of two successive (tandem) autologous stem cell transplants has been evaluated in chemorefractory patients as a means of prolonging duration of disease response. We retrospectively analysed the results of nine patients with chemorefractory disease treated at a single UK institution who received tandem ASCT between January 1998 and February 2009. There were six men and three women. Median age at diagnosis was 56 years (range, 42–65 years). Paraprotein isotype was IgG in eight patients and IgA in one patient. Median serum paraprotein level was 41g/L (range 12–73g/L) at presentation. At time of 1st transplant six patients were in stable disease (SD) and three had evidence of progressive disease. Conditioning melphalan dose was 140mg/m2 in all but two patients who received 110mg/m2 and 200mg/m2. Median time between transplants was 3.7 months (range 2.3–6.4 months) with PR and SD being observed in 2/9 and 7/9 patients at time of 2nd transplant. None of the patients reached complete response (CR). One patient received melphalan 140mg/m2 prior to 2nd transplant. The remaining patients received melphalan 200mg/m2. Median follow up after tandem transplant was 54.3 months (range 15.6 –143.6 months). No treatment related mortality was reported. At the time of analysis, six patients were still alive and under follow up with an overall survival (OS) figure for the group of 52% at 10 years from diagnosis (Figure 1). Median progression free survival (PFS) was 20 months from 2nd transplant (range 6.7–62.6 months) (Figure 2). Tandem autologous stem cell transplant in chemorefractory patients has resulted in overall survival similar to autologous stem cell transplant in chemosensitive patients and should be considered in patients with chemorefractory disease.

Abstract Background: Autologous stem cell transplantation (SCT) improves survival in patients (pts) with multiple myeloma (MM). We have previously demonstrated that the degree of response at transplant does not impact on the outcome of transplant. However, newer induction regimens such as thalidomide and dexamethasone (Thal-Dex) result in higher response rates compared to previously used regimens such as single agent dexamethasone or vincristine, doxorubicin, and dexamethasone (VAD). We examined the outcome of SCT following three different induction therapies for newly diagnosed MM, namely VAD, single agent Dex, and Thal-Dex. Patients and Methods: 340 patients with MM who received their SCT within 12 mos of diagnosis (median 5.8, range 3–12) were studied. Patients receiving more than one induction therapy as well as those in whom thalidomide was added to dexamethasone for lack of response were excluded from the analysis. There were 105 pts in the VAD group, 140 in the Dex group and 95 in the Thal-Dex group. Responses were defined using standard criteria. Results: The study cohort consisted of 209 males (59%), with a median age of 57 years (range 30–76) at transplant. Baseline characteristics were similar in the 3 groups, except for lower age in the VAD group (median 55.8) compared to Dex (59.6) and Thal Dex (57.4) and shorter time to transplant in the Dex group (5.4 m) compared to VAD (6.4) and Thal Dex (5.9). Markers of disease activity pre-transplant, including B2M and marrow plasma cell percentage were higher in the Dex group compared to either VAD or Thal Dex. The proportion of patients with any response to induction therapy was lower in the Dex group compared to the other two. All pts in the Dex and the Thal-Dex groups received melphalan only conditioning compared to 70% in the VAD group, the rest receiving Melphalan/TBI. An objective response was achieved after SCT in 96%, 97%, and 98% of pts in the VAD, Dex and Thal-Dex groups respectively (P=0.8). A complete response to SCT was seen in 49% of patients in VAD group, 45% among those in the Dex group and 38% among those in the Thal Dex group (P=0.38). There was no difference in the median progression free survival after transplant (P=0.21) or overall survival from diagnosis (P=.34) between the three groups. The proportion free from progression at 2 years post transplant was 54%, 55% and 46% for Dex, VAD and Thal-Dex respectively. The proportion surviving at 4 years from diagnosis was 64%, 65.4% and 72% respectively for the three groups. Conclusion: We did not observe any difference in the response rates including complete responses to SCT in the three groups with nearly all pts in each group achieving a response. The progression free survival and overall survival appear to be comparable between the three groups. The results from initial therapy cannot be compared between the three regimens since the study population is restricted to patients reaching stem cell transplant. Within the limits of the study, there does not appear to be any long term impact of the initial therapy for the patients going onto an early stem cell transplant. Figure Figure

Abstract Background: Therapeutic options for patients with Multiple myeloma (MM) whose disease has relapsed after a prior autologous stem cell transplant (SCT) include an expanding armamentarium of novel agents, often combined with traditional chemotherapy, or a second SCT, with no clear standard of care. Upfront tandem transplantation has been shown to improve both progression free survival and overall survival. But currently, there is little data regarding the application of tandem SCT in relapsed multiple myeloma patients. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the outcomes of patients who underwent salvage melphalan-based tandem SCT for relapsed MM at University of Iowa Hospitals and clinics. Progression free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from date of the first salvage SCT to disease progression or death, whereas overall survival (OS) was defined from the date of the first salvage SCT to the date of death from any cause. Results: Between 2012 and 2015, 12 patients with MM received tandem autograft (total 24 transplants) for relapsed disease at our center. Conditioning was with VDT-melphalan 200mg/m2 (21/24), VDT-MEL 140mg/m2 (2/24) and Velcade, gemcitabine, BCNU, melphalan and dexamethasone (1/24). The median age at the salvage SCT was 48 years (range 37-58); 7 patients were female. 17% had high risk cytogenetics (including t(4;14), +1q, p53 loss) at the time of salvage SCT. Median time between previous transplant and progression of disease was 34 months (range 8-108). Of the 7 patients, who received re-induction therapy, 71% had chemotherapy refractory disease prior to salvage SCT. Response was assessed at 2-3 months post-SCT. Overall response rate was 92%. 7/12 (58%) patients achieved stringent complete remission, one patient achieved CR, one patient achieved near CR, 2/12 patients achieved VGPR and 1/12 had stable disease (SD). Following salvage tandem SCT, all patients received consolidation therapy with three drug combination, intended to be given for two years. Three patients have shown progressive disease at the time of analysis. The median PFS was 390 days (range 265- 1085) (Table-1); the median OS was 517 days (range 338-1085) (Table-2). Rate of progression free survival in the 10 evaluable patients at one year was 80%. There was no transplant related mortality. One patient died of progressive disease. Conclusions: Salvage tandem SCT is an effective strategy for relapsed MM and is especially effective in patients who had received less intensive therapy initially (single transplant and no maintenance therapy). Incorporation of novel agents (monoclonal antibodies and high doses of carfilzomib) into maintenance strategies may further improve outcomes. Figure 1.

Abstract Abstract 1878 Poster Board I-900 Autologous stem cell transplant as a platform for multiple myeloma treatment is the standard of care for patients who can safely withstand the procedure. Before novel agents were introduced, one-third to one-half of patients did not achieve partial response at transplant. Previously published medical literature has showed that in this past era, absence of initial response to induction therapy had no impact on progression-free survival and overall survival after high-dose therapy. Lack of response to initial induction did not preclude a good response after stem cell transplant. With the introduction of novel agents—immunomodulatory drugs and proteasome inhibitors—response rates with initial therapy are now between 70% and 100%. This retrospective study analyzes progression-free survival and overall survival in patients who do not have a partial response after induction therapy with a regimen that contains a novel agent. Unlike patients in reports published previously—before novel agents—patients who do not achieve partial remission have a significantly shorter overall survival from transplant (74.0 vs 43.5 months) and a shorter progression-free survival (22.6 vs 13.1 months; P<.001). Absence of a response to induction therapy with a novel agent predicts a poorer outcome after high-dose therapy.{abstabft}.b CR+VGPR for plateau, P<.001 compared with other 3 categories.

Abstract 4323 Introduction Allogeneic stem cell transplant has been considered the only potentially curative treatment for patients with myeloma. Due to the high treatment related mortality associated with myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation, non-myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantion is being investigated. Methods Between May 2003 and June 2008, 23 patients received a non-myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplant (NMT) using a fully matched sibling as the donor. All had received a previous autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). 17 received the NMT as a part of a planned tandem transplant post ASCT. Six received the NMT after relapse post ASCT. Conditioning chemotherapy was a combination of cyclophosphamide 1000 mg/m2 daily x 2 days and Fludarabine 25mg/m2 daily for 5 days. Survival was measured from the date of allogeneic stem cell infusion. Results Median age at NMT was 52 years. Eight were female. Immunoglobulin isotype was 13 IgG; 5 IgA; 1 IgD; 4 light chain. ISS stage was 10 – stage 1; 8 – stage 2; 3- stage 3; 2 – insufficient information. 9/21 had del 13q; 3/9 t (4;14); 1/7 del 17p. Disease status at the time of NMT were 5 CR/nCR, 11 PR, 1 SD, 3 relapse chemo-sensitive, 3 relapse chemo-resistant. Median follow-up is 29 months (7 – 65 months). Median event free survival (EFS) for all patients is 17 months (95 % CI 8-26 months). Median EFS for the 17 patients who received NMT as a part of a planned tandem procedure was 18 months. Median overall survival (OS) for all patients is 29 months (95% CI unable to calculate). At the time of analysis 17 patients remain alive. Five patients are alive in continuous remission at a median of 40.9 months from NMT (13.5-47.6 months). Twelve patients have active disease requiring treatment. Three patients have died of myeloma, one of graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) and two of other causes. Nineteen patients (83%) developed GVHD at some time post-transplant. Of 14 patients who have relapsed, eleven patients had GVHD at the time of relapse. Of the 6 patient who received the NMT after relapse post ASCT, 5 have relapsed post NMT and one died of GVHD within 9 months. Conclusion Non-myeloablative sibling allogeneic stem cell transplantation for myeloma produces short progression free survival in-spite of the presence of graft-versus-host-disease and only a limited number of patients benefit. Patient who receive this treatment after relapse from prior autologous stem cell transplant do particularly poorly. Improved overall survival is primary due to improvements in post-relapse myeloma therapy.

Abstract Abstract 595 Multiple myeloma is a malignancy of terminally differentiated plasma cells in which the malignant plasma cell clone usually produces a single abnormal unique monoclonal antibody with a constant isotype and light chain-restricted paraprotein. Recently, the occurrence of oligoclonal and monoclonal bands (OB/MB) not related to the original clone has been reported in patients with multiple myeloma who undergo autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) and/or receive treatment with novel agents. Based on this data, the aim of our study was to assess the impact of monoclonal (MB) and oligoclonal bands (OB) occurrence on overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) for MM patients undergoing single ASCT at Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH). Patient and Methods: All consecutive patients with documented MM undergoing single ASCT at PMH from 01/00 to 12/07 were evaluated. Oligoclonal banding (OB) was defined as the development of two or more concurrent monoclonal-type bands on the serum electrophoretic pattern, with either a different heavy or light chain component from the original M-protein band at day+100 post-ASCT. A new monoclonal band (MB) was defined as a heavy and/or light chain immunoglobulin distinct from the initially diagnosed MM. All cases with OB/MB in our series fulfilled the criteria of secondary monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). Multivariate analysis was performed with the Cox proportional hazard model. All analyses were performed using the SPSS 13.0 software. Results: Between January 2000 and December 2007, 788 patients were identified. Clinical and laboratory characteristics are listed in Table 1 Ninety-six patients (12.1%) developed OB/MB at 3 months from ASCT: 32 patients (33.3%) had OB, and 64 patients (66.7%) had a new MB. The median duration of the OB/MB was 12 months (range 4–52 months). OB and MB emerged after ASCT in 14% (60/409) of patients receiving VAD, 7.0% of patients receiving bortezomib (6/86) and 8.6% of patients receiving thalidomide (6/69) containing regimens as induction therapy. Thirty-seven (38%) patients with subsequent development of an OB/MB had achieved ≥VGPR after induction and this rate improved to 79% (76/96) at day +100 post-ASCT. Patients who did not develop OB/MB had a ≥VGPR rate of 28% and 58% after induction and day+100 post-ASCT, representing a lower rate than patients with OB/MB (p=0.07 and 0.002, respectively). At the time of this analysis, 65 (67.7%) of the cohort patients who developed OB/MB are alive and 68 have already progressed (70.8%). Median overall survival for patients who did not develop OB/MB at day+100 post ASCT was 74.5 months compared to 115.5 months for those who developed OB/MB (p=0.0098). Multivariate analysis shows developing of OB/MB as an independent prognostic factor for OS and PFS (p=0.006 and 0.021, respectively). (Fig1a-b) The duration of the OB/MB did not affect OS and PFS. In conclusion, OB/MB occurrence is an important prognostic factor in MM patients who undergo ASCT, the biological significance and its impact on clinical outcomes should be prospectively validated.

Background: Salvage autologous stem cell transplant (SAT)is an alternative treatment option for relapsed multiple myeloma patients that offers additional progression-free survival (PFS2) and overall survival (OS2) advantage over salvage chemotherapy. We conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the outcomes of salvage transplant in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma after initial transplant. Methods: This meta-analysis was performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A comprehensive literature search on PubMed, Embase, Cochrane and Web of Science was conducted up to December 31st, 2018. Two independent reviewers screened the literature and extracted data. All studies including randomized, retrospective or prospective studies in multiple myeloma patients who underwent salvage autologous transplant were included. Abstracts, posters, review articles, case reports and studies with syngeneic and tandem transplant were excluded. Articles were excluded if they did not provide transplant related outcomes data. The search terms included "Salvage autologous stem cell transplantation", "Second autologous stem cell transplantation", "multiple myeloma". 'Meta' and "Metafor' libraries in R software (CRAN Project) were used for the analysis. Pooled estimates and 95% confidence intervals were calculated using DerSimonian-Laird (DL) random effects model. Heterogeneity between studies was evaluated using Q test and sensitivity analysis. Results: The search strategy identified over 3260 articles; 16 studies (n = 1113 patients; 1 randomized trial; 15 retrospective studies) were selected for this meta-analysis. The sample size of the studies varied between 25 and 200 patients. All studies used melphalan conditioning for salvage transplant. A significant number of patients in about 10 studies received maintenance after initial transplant. Only one study included patients who received maintenance therapy after salvage transplant. Pooled rate of patients achieving partial response or more(≥PR) after salvage transplant was 76% (95%CI: 68-83; I2=84%). Pooled rate of transplant related mortality (TRM2) was 5.5% (95%CI: 2.6-9.3; I2=78%). The pooled estimates showed a median progression free survival (PFS2) 13.5 months (95%CI: 11.3 - 15.6; I2=100%), overall survival (OS2) 34.3 months (95%CI: 27.9 - 40.7; I2=100%). The results are shown in figures 1&2. Conclusion: SAT approach had favorable outcomes of achieving durable PFS and OS in relapsed myeloma patients. A Higher TRM was observed with salvage transplant than in upfront transplant. Prospective randomized trials are needed to define benefits of SAT in comparison with "best non-ASCT" therapy in patients with MM who relapse after primary therapy.
