Minimal residual disease after transplantation or lenalidomide-based consolidation in myeloma patients: a prospective analysis.

ABSTRACT: We analyzed 50 patients who achieved at least a very good partial response in the RV-MM-EMN-441 study. Patients received consolidation with autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT) or cyclophosphamide-lenalidomide-dexamethasone (CRD), followed by Lenalidomide-based maintenance. We assessed minimal residual disease (MRD) by multi-parameter flow cytometry (MFC) and allelic-specific oligonucleotide real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (ASO-RQ-PCR) after consolidation, after 3 and 6 courses of maintenance, and thereafter every 6 months until progression. By MFC analysis, 19/50 patients achieved complete response (CR) after consolidation, and 7 additional patients during maintenance. A molecular marker was identified in 25/50 patients, 4/25 achieved molecular-CR after consolidation, and 3 additional patients during maintenance. A lower MRD value by MFC was found in ASCT patients compared with CRD patients (p=0.0134). Tumor burden reduction was different in patients with high-risk vs standard-risk cytogenetics (3.4 vs 5.2, ln-MFC; 3 vs 6 ln-PCR, respectively) and in patients who relapsed vs those who did not (4 vs 5, ln-MFC; 4.4 vs 7.8 ln-PCR). MRD progression anticipated clinical relapse by a median of 9 months while biochemical relapse by a median of 4 months. MRD allows the identification of a low-risk group, independently of response, and a better characterization of the activity of treatments.

Project description:BackgroundThe majority of patients in need of a hematopoietic-cell transplant do not have a matched related donor. Data are needed to inform the choice among various alternative donor-cell sources.MethodsIn this retrospective analysis, we compared outcomes in 582 consecutive patients with acute leukemia or the myelodysplastic syndrome who received a first myeloablative hematopoietic-cell transplant from an unrelated cord-blood donor (140 patients), an HLA-matched unrelated donor (344), or an HLA-mismatched unrelated donor (98).ResultsThe relative risks of death and relapse between the cord-blood group and the two other unrelated-donor groups appeared to vary according to the presence of minimal residual disease status before transplantation. Among patients with minimal residual disease, the risk of death was higher in the HLA-mismatched group than in the cord-blood group (hazard ratio, 2.92; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.52 to 5.63; P=0.001); the risk was also higher in the HLA-matched group than in the cord-blood group but not significantly so (hazard ratio, 1.69; 95% CI, 0.94 to 3.02; P=0.08). Among patients without minimal residual disease, the hazard ratios were lower (hazard ratio in the HLA-mismatched group, 1.36; 95% CI, 0.76 to 2.46; P=0.30; hazard ratio in the HLA-matched group, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.48 to 1.28; P=0.33). The risk of relapse among patients with minimal residual disease was significantly higher in the two unrelated-donor groups than in the cord-blood group (hazard ratio in the HLA-mismatched group, 3.01; 95% CI, 1.22 to 7.38; P=0.02; hazard ratio in the HLA-matched group, 2.92; 95% CI, 1.34 to 6.35; P=0.007). Among patients without minimal residual disease, the magnitude of these associations was lower (hazard ratio in the HLA-mismatched group, 1.28; 95% CI, 0.51 to 3.25; P=0.60; hazard ratio in the HLA-matched group, 1.30; 95% CI, 0.65 to 2.58; P=0.46).ConclusionsOur data suggest that among patients with pretransplantation minimal residual disease, the probability of overall survival after receipt of a transplant from a cord-blood donor was at least as favorable as that after receipt of a transplant from an HLA-matched unrelated donor and was significantly higher than the probability after receipt of a transplant from an HLA-mismatched unrelated donor. Furthermore, the probability of relapse was lower in the cord-blood group than in either of the other groups.

Project description:Attaining undetectable minimal residual disease (MRD) is the current therapeutic goal for multiple myeloma. But there is a current lack of data regarding the clinical benefit of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for patients with myeloma achieving early MRD-negative status after induction treatment, in addition to the interaction of longitudinal MRD status with ASCT. The current study included 407 patients with transplant-eligible multiple myeloma with available MRD status from the National Longitudinal Cohort of Hematological Diseases in China (NCT04645199), of whom 147 (34.4%) achieved early undetectable MRD and 182 (44.7%) received ASCT. Early MRD-negative status was associated with a lower risk of disease progression [HR = 0.447; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.333-0.600; P < 0.001] and death (HR = 0.473; 95% CI, 0.320-0.700; P < 0.001). Of note, patients who achieved undetectable MRD early still benefitted from ASCT, with a remarkable improvement in the median MRD-negative duration (33.5-58.0 months, P < 0.001), progression-free survival (PFS; 46.0-88.3 months, P < 0.001), and overall survival (OS; 76.4 months to not reached, P = 0.003). These clinical benefits were more pronounced in patients with aggressive features (high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities or high tumor burden) compared with standard-risk patients. Similar results were observed in patients with detectable MRD after induction treatment. In addition, we identified four MRD-status transformation patterns following ASCT, which were strongly correlated with diverse survival outcomes (P < 0.001). Our study revealed the enhanced clinical significance of ASCT in patients with transplant-eligible myeloma, regardless of early MRD status, particularly for high-risk patients. Subsequent prospective trials are essential to validate these observations.SignificanceAchieving and maintaining undetectable MRD is the current treatment goal for multiple myeloma. Our results emphasized the remarkable clinical benefit of ASCT on MRD-negative duration, PFS, and OS in patients with multiple myeloma regardless of early MRD status. These favorable impacts were more evident in patients with aggressive features. Importantly, dynamic MRD monitoring among ASCT could facilitate personalized stratification of therapeutic approaches.
