Multiple myeloma is the second most common hematologic malignancy. Current treatment strategies are mainly based on immunomodulatory drugs, proteasome inhibitors or combination of both. Novel agents added to these backbone treatments represent a promising strategy in treatment of newly diagnosed as well as relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma patients. In this respect, the incorporation of monoclonal antibodies into standard-of-care regimens markedly improved prognosis of myeloma patients during the last years. More specifically, monoclonal anti-CD38 antibodies, daratumumab and isatuximab, have been implemented into treatment strategies from first-line treatment to refractory disease. In addition, the monoclonal anti-SLAM-F7 antibody elotuzumab in combination with immunomodulatory drugs has improved the clinical outcomes of patients with relapsed/refractory disease. Belantamab mafodotin is the first approved antibody drug conjugate directed against B cell maturation antigen and is currently used as a monotherapy for patients with advanced disease. This review focuses on clinical efficacy and safety of monoclonal antibodies as well as antibody drug conjugates in multiple myeloma.

Viridans group streptococci bloodstream infections (VGS BSI) remain a significant cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with severe neutropenia. The goal of our study was to evaluate clinical course and microbiological susceptibility of VGS BSI at our center. Retrospective analysis of all microbiologically documented bloodstream infections caused by VGS during the 9-year time period (from January 2006 until December 2014) was carried out. Only patients with severe neutropenia (< 500/μL) were included in the study. Clinical outcome and microbiological susceptibility pattern of isolates were recorded. Fifty-one individual patients with episode of VGS BSI were identified. The most frequent agent was Streptococcus mitis (23/51 cases, 45.1%). 88.2% (45/51) of patients were on recommended ciprofloxacin prophylaxis. 20/51 (39.2%) of patients suffered from mucositis at the time of diagnosis (10 patients had oral mucositis, 2 patients had bowel mucositis, and 8 patients both). Twenty-six patients (51.0%) had clinically relevant lung damage caused by VGS BSI (i.e., acute lung injury or acute respiratory distress syndrome). Twenty-four (47.0%) patients presented with bilateral lung infiltrated upon chest imaging, and two (4.0%) patients had unilateral lung infiltrates. Three patients (5.9%) died due to VGS BSI until day 28 of observation. No difference in signs of shock syndrome was observed in the patients during transplantation procedures compared to patients without transplantation as well as in a group received previous high-dose chemotherapy with cytosinarabinoside or in patients with mucositis. Only 3/51 of isolates (5.9%) were resistant to penicillin. All isolates were susceptible to empirical treatment. While the penicillin resistance of VGS remains low in middle Europe, initial antibiotic therapy of febrile neutropenia are still effective in most cases. The mortality and complication rates of VGS BSI were comparable to other studies, and no specific risk factor of shock presence could be identified.

This study used data from the Czech Myeloma Group Registry of Monoclonal Gammopathies to validate the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) and revised International Staging System (R-ISS) indices for risk stratification in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) in clinical practice. Patients were included if they had symptomatic MM, complete data allowing R-ISS and IMWG staging (including cytogenetic information regarding t(4;14), t(14;16), and del(17p)), and key parameters for treatment evaluation. Median overall survival (OS) in included patients (n = 550) was 47.7 (95% CI: 39.5-55.9) and 46.2 (95% CI: 38.9-53.5) months from diagnosis and initiation of first-line therapy, respectively. Patients categorized as higher vs lower risk had reduced survival; median OS from diagnosis was 35.4 (95% CI: 30.5-40.3) vs 58.3 (95% CI: 53.8-62.9) months in high-risk vs other patients (IMWG; P = .001) and 34.1 (95% CI: 30.2-38.0) vs 47.2 (95% CI: 43.4-51.0) months in Stage III vs Stage II patients (R-ISS; P < .001). In conclusion, IMWG and R-ISS risk stratification indices are applicable to patients with MM in a real-world setting.

INTRODUCTION: The normalization of free light chain ratio (FLCr) has been introduced as a marker of stringent complete remission (CR) of multiple myeloma (MM). There is currently a lack of literature assessing the role of FLCr on MM disease progression and remission status. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A multicentered retrospective review of 125 patients with MM in CR and various FLCr values was completed. Parameters of interest included patient demographics, FLCr values, complete remission (CR)/relapse status, and time to progression (TTP). The FLCr values were recorded to provide time-dependent findings on the role of FLCr on progression-free survival and overall survival (OS). RESULTS: The mean follow-up time of 125 patients from five hospitals in the Czech Republic was 31 months. A total of 47.2% of patients relapsed (54 of 125) during the follow-up period. The median TTP of patients with normal FLCr (n = 66) was 54.4 and 40.2 months for patients with abnormal FLCr (n = 59) (P = 0.217). None of the patients reached median overall survival regardless of FLCr values (P = 0.821). In the subgroup of newly diagnosed patients after upfront autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), there were 55.6% of patients (35 of 63) with normal FLCr and 44.4% (28 of 64) with abnormal FLCr. A total of 34.9% of patients (22 of 63) relapsed in this subgroup. Within the abnormal FLCr patients, a median TTP was 56.3 months, but no median TTP was reached among the normal FLCr patients (P = 0.746). Median OS in patients with normal (nFLCr) and abnormal FLCr (aFLCr) was not reached (P = 0.787). CONCLUSION: We did not observe any benefit from FLCr normalization in CR in myeloma patients in terms of progression-free survival or overall survival.

INTRODUCTION: Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) became standard of care for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) under the age of 65 years. We routinely perform ASCT for newly diagnosed MM since 1996 in our department. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed all 285 transplants in 185 patients done for MM from January 1996 till December 2010. We analyzed overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) regarding conditioning, stage, complete or very good partial remission (CR, VGPR) achievement, renal impairment, single vs. double transplant. RESULTS: Estimated 10-years survival of the whole set of patients is 39% (median survival 95 months). Patients with renal impairment show same OS as those without (p = 0.22). Patients show similar overall survival and event free survival regardless of type of transplant. We observed better outcome in terms of overall survival in patients treated with new drugs (p = 0.0014). Reaching CR or VGPR was not translated into better OS (p = 0.30) and EFS (p = 0.10). Also stage of the disease and whether single or double transplant was used did not make any significant difference in the outcome. CONCLUSION: Stem cell transplantation greatly improved outcome of patients with MM. Poor outcome of allogeneic transplantation in our group of patients is related to high transplant related mortality (20% vs. 0%) and unexpected high relapse rate. There is a trend towards better survival, when new drugs are incorporated at any time in the course of the disease. This fact supports hypothesis that use of these drugs with ASCT should translate into better long-term outcome.
