Successful Treatment of Relapsed/Refractory Extramedullary Multiple Myeloma With Anti-BCMA CAR-T Cell Therapy Followed by Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: A Case Report and a Review of the Contemporary Literature.

ABSTRACT: Extramedullary multiple myeloma (EMM) is an aggressive sub-entity of multiple myeloma (MM). Despite an excellent improvement in survival for most patients with MM over recent decades, the overall survival (OS) of patients with EMM was usually not longer than 3 years. Standard treatment for patients with EMM has not been established, and their management is particularly challenging. We presented a heavily pretreated young patient with relapsed EMM and refractoriness to a proteasome inhibitor (PI; bortezomib), a next-generation PI (ixazomib), immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs; lenalidomide), autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT), and monoclonal antibody (directed against CD38: daratumumab) and indicated that myeloablative haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
