In Multiple Myeloma, High-Risk Secondary Genetic Events Observed at Relapse Are Present From Diagnosis in Tiny, Undetectable Subclonal Populations

Romain Lannes et al.

Summary: Using single-cell genomics, it was found that high-risk events in multiple myeloma (MM) patients are often missed at diagnosis and only selected at relapse. This suggests the need for more aggressive treatment at diagnosis to prevent these aggressive cells from becoming dominant clones.

Ciltacabtagene Autoleucel, an Anti-B-cell Maturation Antigen Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy, for Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma: CARTITUDE-1 2-Year Follow-Up

Thomas Martin et al.

Summary: PURPOSECARTITUDE-1, a phase Ib/II study, evaluated the safety and efficacy of Ciltacabtagene Autoleucel in heavily treated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. The study showed early, deep, and durable responses at 12 months, with updated results at 2 years. Patients received a single infusion of Ciltacabtagene Autoleucel and responses were assessed.

Prognostic significance of acquired 1q22 gain in multiple myeloma

Hadiyah Y. Audil et al.

Summary: Acquisition of 1q22 gain in multiple myeloma patients is associated with reduced overall survival. Presence of high-risk FISH abnormalities at baseline increases the risk of acquiring 1q22 gain.

Extramedullary disease in multiple myeloma: a systematic literature review

Joan Blade et al.

Summary: Extramedullary involvement is an aggressive form of multiple myeloma, with varied typical sites and incidence rates. Patients with EMD have poor prognosis and lower treatment efficacy. The lack of prospective studies limits strong recommendations for treatment approaches.

Plasma cell dynamics in the bone marrow niche

Zachary Benet et al.

Summary: Intravital imaging revealed that bone marrow plasma cells (PCs) exhibit a unique migration pattern characterized by intermittent high motility periods and longer stretches of confined migration or arrest. The study showed that APRIL promotes cluster formation and overall PC motility in the bone marrow.

Primary plasma cell leukemia: consensus definition by the International Myeloma Working Group according to peripheral blood plasma cell percentage

Carlos Fernandez de Larrea et al.

Summary: Prompt identification and effective treatment of primary plasma cell leukemia (PCL) are crucial due to its consistently poor prognosis. Revisiting the diagnosis of PCL based on the presence of circulating plasma cells in peripheral blood is essential for defining this high-risk disease.

Expert review on soft-tissue plasmacytomas in multiple myeloma: definition, disease assessment and treatment considerations

Laura Rosinol et al.

Summary: This review identifies two types of soft-tissue involvement in multiple myeloma: EMD and PS. EMD disease is associated with high-risk cytogenetics, therapy resistance, and worse prognosis. For patients with PS involvement, a proteasome inhibitor-based regimen may be the best option.

Anti-BCMA CAR-T Cell Therapy in Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma Patients With Extramedullary Disease: A Single Center Analysis of Two Clinical Trials

Yimei Que et al.

Summary: Based on the analysis of clinical trial results of anti-BCMA CAR-T cell therapy, it was found that patients with extramedullary multiple myeloma could benefit from this treatment in terms of safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics, although they had shorter overall survival and progression-free survival compared to non-extramedullary multiple myeloma patients.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of cilta-cel in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, and the results showed that cilta-cel treatment achieved good efficacy and safety with short treatment duration, deep response, and long duration of response.
