Impact of Cytogenetic Abnormalities, Induction and Maintenance Regimens on Outcomes After High-Dose Chemotherapy and Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma: A Decade-Long Real-World Experience.

ABSTRACT:

Background

High-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant (HDT-ASCT) has become a standard of care for transplant eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients. While cytogenetic abnormalities have been shown to affect outcomes after HDT-ASCT in clinical trials, these trials often exclude or underrepresent elderly patients with comorbidities and those belonging to ethnic minorities. We describe our institutional experience highlighting the impact of high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities (HRCAs) on outcomes after HDT-ASCT for NDMM patients.

Methods

A total of 449 patients with NDMM who underwent HDT-ASCT between February 2012 and August 2022 were included in this retrospective analysis. HRCAs included the presence of one or more of: deletion 17p, t(14;16
