Description: Introduction:SMM is an asymptomatic and heterogeneous plasma cell disorder. The Spanish Myeloma Group demonstrated that patients at high risk of progression benefit from early treatment with Rd. In addition, our preliminary results of the curative approach (GEM-CESAR) showed encouraging results (Mateos ASH 2017). Aim: The primary end-point was to evaluate the Minimal Residual Disease negative (MRD-ve) rate by next generation flow (NGF) after induction and ASCT and the sustained MRD-ve rate at 3 and 5 yrs after ASCT as secondary end-points. Our aim was to increase the MRD -ve rate from 34% (reported in NDMM patients after VTD and ASCT) to 50%. As all patients have completed induction and ASCT, we report the results of the primary end point, efficacy and safety after induction and ASCT. Methods: In this phase II single arm trial, 90 SMM patients at high-risk of progression (〉50% at 2 yrs), younger than 70 yrs and transplant candidates were included. The high risk was defined by the presence of both ≥PC 10% and MC ≥3g/dL (Mayo criteria) or ifonly one criterion was present, patients must have a proportionof aberrant PCs within the total PCsBM compartment by immunophenotypingof 95% plus immunoparesis (Spanish criteria). Asymptomatic MM patients with any of the three biomarkers recently included into the definition of active MM were allowed to be included. Induction therapy consisted on six 4-weeks cycles of KRd in which K was given at dose of 36 mg/m2twice per week plus R at dose of 25 mg on days 1-21 and dexamethasone at dose of 40 mg weekly. Melphalan at dose of 200 mg/m2followed by ASCT was given as intensification therapy and three months later, patients received two KRd consolidation cycles followed by maintenance with R at dose of 10 mg on days 1-21 plus dex at dose of 20 mg weekly for up to 2 yrs Results: Between June 2015 and June 2017, the 90 SMM patients at high risk of progression were recruited. Twenty-eight pts (32%) shared at least one of the new biomarkers predicting imminent risk of progression to MM. The primary end point of the trial was met, since 55% of the patients who completed induction and ASCT achieved MRD -ve by NGF (sensitivity 3 x 10-6). Upon analyzing the results after induction, 88 patients completed the 6 induction cycles and were evaluable for response (two patients early discontinued): the ORR was 98% including 41% of ≥CR (32% sCR and 9% CR) and 41% of VGPR rate. Two patients were mobilization failures and one patient rejected ASCT. Two additional patients experienced biological progression before ASCT and went off the study. Eighty-three patients, therefore, proceeded to HDT-ASCT and were evaluable at day +100: the ORR was 100% including ≥CR in 63% of the patients (51% sCR and 12% CR) and VGPR rate in 23%. The MRD-ve rate increased from 31% after induction to 55% with the ASCT. No differences in outcome have been observed according neither to the definition of high risk (Mayo or Spanish model) nor ultra high risk SMM. Concerning toxicity, during induction, G3-4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia were reported in 5 (6%) and 10 pts (11%), respectively. G3-4 infections were the most frequent non-hematological AE observed in 16 pts (18%), followed by skin rash in 8 pts (9%). One patient reported G1 atrial fibrillation and another cardiac failure secondary to respiratory infection. Three patients reported hypertension (G2 in two and G3 in one). Thirteen patients required lenalidomide dose reduction whilst carfilzomib was not reduced in any patient. In four patients, dexamethasone was reduced. In all but two of the pts, PBSC collection was successful with a median of 4.10 x 106/Kg CD34 cells collected. All patients engrafted. Consolidation and maintenance phases are ongoing. After a median follow-up of 17 months (5-36), 94% of patients remain alive and free of progression and 97% of them alive. Three patients experienced biological progression and discontinued the study: one of them was refractory to the rescue therapies and died and the other two are receiving rescue therapies. One additional patient died early during induction due to a massive ischemic stroke unrelated to the treatment. Conclusions: Although longer follow-up is required, this "curative strategy for high risk SMM" continues being encouraging with an acceptable toxicity profile. The study has met its primary endpoint. The depth of response improved over the treatment: 63% of patients who completed induction and ASCT achieved ≥CR with a MRD-ve rate of 55%.

Description: Background: Eltrombopag is an oral thrombopoietin receptor agonist (TPO-RA) drug approved in primary chronic ITP. Lack of clinical trials in secondary ITP avoids a clear demonstration of its potential in terms of safety and efficacy on secondary ITP. Aims: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of eltrombopag in secondary ITP patients in daily clinical practice in Spain. Methods: Ninety-eight secondary ITP patients (aged 18 years or more) from 30 Spanish centers, treated with eltrombopag and included in the Spanish Eltrombopag Registry were retrospectively evaluated. Our study was performed in accordance with the standards of the Helsinki declaration and approved by the Hospital Universitario de Burgos Ethics Committee. Results: Our case series included 98 patients we allocated to four categories: immune disorders (n=47), infections (n=23), lymphoproliferative disorders (n=20), and neoplasms (n=8). The median age of the cohort was 62 (IQR, 40-71) years with 38 men and 60 women. At diagnosis, 34 patients had a Charlson Comorbidity Index score of 2 or more. Median time from ITP diagnosis to eltrombopag initiation was 13 (IQR, 2-66) months. Median number of therapies against thrombocytopenia before eltrombopag was 2 (IQR, 1-3), including rituximab (24), splenectomy (18) and romiplostim (13). Median platelet count when treatment started was 15 x 109/L (IQR, 5-43 x 109/L). Meanwhile, 44 patients had bleeding symptoms. Concomitant therapy was administered to 55 ITP (corticoids in 33) (Table I). Whole cohort eltrombopag response rate was 59% of responses (R; platelet count ≥30 x109/L and at least 2-fold increase the baseline count and absence of bleeding) with 52% of complete responses (CR; platelet count 〉100 x 109/L). Regarding the disease associated to ITP we observed high response rates in immune disorders and infection groups (67% of R, 76 % of R, respectively). Nevertheless, in lymphoproliferative disorders and neoplastic groups efficacy rates were much lower (36 % of R, 37 % of R respectively). The proportion of patients achieving platelet response was quite similar regardless the other studied parameters: age, sex, concomitant treatment, bleeding and platelet count at start of eltrombopag treatment. 30 adverse events were reported with eltrombopag, being 18 of them grade 3-4. 14 deaths were observed but only two were caused by bleeding. The remaining causes of death were: 4 because of bacterial sepsis and another 4 due to progression of basal disease. 2 secondary neoplasms, 1 aspergillosis and one death due to a non-treated severe anemia were also reported (Table II). Conclusion: The use of eltrombopag for treating secondary ITP is effective and safe. To point out, its efficacy in lymphoproliferative disorders and in neoplasm-associated ITP is lower than in benign diseases. Certainly, more studies are needed to confirm usefulness of TPO-RAs in secondary ITP cases. Table 1.

Description: Background: Eltrombopag is a thrombopoietin receptor agonist approved for primary chronic ITP patients. Due to the non-existence of clinical trials using eltrombopag in persistent and newly diagnosed ITP, there are no clear data about its usefulness in this setting. Aims: To evaluate efficacy and safety of eltrombopag in persistent, newly diagnosed and chronic ITP in routine clinical practice in Spain. Methods: Two hundred and twenty adult ITP patients from thirty Spanish centers who had been treated with eltrombopag and included in the Spanish Eltrombopag Registry were retrospectively evaluated. This study was performed in accordance with the standards of the Helsinki declaration and approved by the Hospital Universitario de Burgos Ethics Committee. Results: Here we report efficacy and safety results of primary ITP Spanish Eltrombopag Registry cohort. According to the standard definition, patients were allocated to newly diagnosed (n=30), persistent (n=30) and chronic (n=160) ITP groups. Each group is described separately in Table I. There are no statistical significant differences regarding response and duration of response among ITP groups. There is a trend towards a greater efficacy in newly diagnosed ITP with 93.3% of responses (platelet count ≥30 x109/L and at least two-fold increase the baseline count and absence of bleeding) and 86.7% of complete responses (CR; platelet count 〉100 x 109/L). Persistent ITP achieved 83.3% of responses and 80.0% of CR. Similarly 79.4% of responses with 73.1 of CR were observed in chronic ITP. Response rates were similar in all groups regardless all other studied parameters. Another trend towards a longer response duration in persistent ITP was found, with a median of 424 (IQR, 288-664) days. Response durations were similar in chronic ITP (median, 370 days; IQR, 174-624) and in newly diagnosed ITP (median, 378 days; IQR, 154-485). In newly diagnosed ITP, eight adverse events (AEs) with only three grade 3-4 AEs were observed. We reported three deaths; Two of them were due to upper respiratory tract infections in previously diagnosed pulmonary patients. A cerebral hemorrhage was the only death directly related to thrombocytopenia. In persistent ITP, four grade 1-2 AEs and two grade 3-4 AEs (one stroke, one cerebral bleeding) were reported. The only observed death was secondary to the mentioned cerebral hemorrhage. Twenty-one grade 1-2 AEs, ten grade 3-4 AEs and eight deaths (only two caused by bleeding) occurred in chronic ITP. Conclusion: Use of eltrombopag for treating persistent and newly diagnosed ITP is effective and safe. However, more studies are needed to confirm usefulness of TPO-RAs in this setting. Table 1.

Description: Introduction and Objective: Extranodal natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTL-NT) is associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and is much more common in Asia and Latin America than in western countries. Data on disease presentation and outcome from European series are very limited. The objective of the study is to analyze the clinical characteristics at diagnosis, treatment received and outcome of a series of patients from Spain. Patients and Methods: Eigthy-seven patients with ENKTL-NT diagnosed from 2000 to 2017 were identified in 24 academic centers in Spain. Clinical data were collected retrospectively. Survival curves were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Variables included in the univariate analysis were: race, gender, age, previous sinusitis, nasal localization, Ann Arbor stage, ECOG performance status (PS), B symptoms, LDH, beta2-microglobulin, albumin and C-reactive protein. Multivariate analyses were performed by Cox proportional hazard regression model. Results: Clinical characteristics at diagnosis are shown in Table 1. Seventy-seven patients received active treatment, 31 (40%) with chemotherapy (CT) alone, 39 (51%) with CT and radiotherapy (RT), 7 (9%) with RT alone (median dose 50 Gy). First line therapies were: CHOP/CHOP-like in 30 (42%) patients, high-dose L-Asparaginase-containing regimens in 27 (38%), and other regimens in 14 (20%); 12 patients proceeded to stem-cell transplant in first line (10 auto / 2 allo). Response rate was evaluable in 70 patients (by PET/TC in 55%): CR 35 (50%), PR 9 (13%), SD/progression 26 (37%). Median number of CT lines was 2 (1-6). With a median follow-up of 38 months, 3 yr OS was 38% (95% CI 27-49), and 3 yr PFS 25% (95% CI 14-35). Causes of death were: progression 35 (67%), toxicity 12 (23%), second neoplasms 5 (10%). The variables at diagnosis significantly associated with poor OS were: age ≥ 60 yr, extranasal disease, Ann Arbor III-IV, ECOG PS 2-4, increased LDH, and decreased albumin. In the multivariate analysis including all the previous variables, ECOG 2-4 PS (HR 3.3, 95% CI 1.4-7.0) and low albumin (HR 3.6, 95% CI 1.4-9.3) maintained the negative influence in OS. Patients treated with regimens that included high dose L-Asparaginase had 3 yr OS of 61% (95%CI 40-82), compared with patients treated with CHOP/CHOP-like 3 yr OS of 19% (95%CI 5-32) (p=0.009). These differences were statistically significant both in patients with nasal involvement (3 yr OS 82% with L-Asparaginase vs 21% with CHOP, p=0.01) or with localized disease (3 yr OS 71% with L-Asparaginase vs 24% with CHOP, p=0.03). Differences were not statistically significant in patients with extranasal involvement (3 yr OS 48% with L-Asparaginase vs 14% with RCHOP, p=0.2), or advance disease (3 yr OS 48% with L-Asparaginase vs 14% with CHOP, p=0.2), probably because the low number of patients. Conclusion: This is the largest series reported of Caucasian patients with ENKTL-NT. Patients are young at diagnosis and one fourth had a previous history of chronic sinusitis. This population has a poor outcome, being progression the main cause of death. Poor clinical condition at diagnosis (high ECOG PS and low albumin level) is the main factor related with poor survival. Therapies with high dose L-Asparaginase improve the survival in this western population compared with the classical CHOP regimen.

Description: Introduction: The GEM-CESAR trial is a potentially curative strategy for high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (HRsMM) patients in which the primary endpoint is the assessment of bone marrow minimal residual disease negativity by next generation flow (NGF). However, alternative methods of tumor burden evaluation in serum, like Quantitative Immunoprecipitation Mass Spectrometry (QIP-MS), a polyclonal antibody-based technology to identify intact immunoglobulins, have been also evaluated. Patients and Methods: Ninety HRsMM patients included in the GEM-CESAR trial received six 4-weeks cycles of carfilzomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone followed by high dose melphalan and ASCT and 2 further cycles of consolidation with the same regimen. All patients received maintenance with lenalidomide up to 2 years. SPEP and IFE were performed using standard procedures and MRD was analyzed by flow cytometry following EuroFlow recommendations. QIP-MS assessment has been previously described (1) and allowed us the characterization of the isotype of each Ig trough immunoprecipitation with paramagnetic beads as well as the measurement of the molecular mass of each Ig for each specific patient, with enough precision and accuracy to establish clonality. Standard response assignment was carried out as per the IMWG guidelines. Results: First, we confirmed the higher sensitivity of QIP-MS to identify the presence of a serum M-spike as compared to conventional protein immunofixation electrophoresis methods. Amongst patients in CR, QIP-MS identified the M-spike in 18/30 (60%) post-induction, 18/47(38%) post-ASCT and 25/58(43%) post-consolidation. Interestingly, similar results were obtained with MRD-NGF post-induction [17/30(57%)] and post-ASCT [15/47(32%)] although the positive rate post-consolidation [15/58(26%)] was higher with QIP-MS. Then, we analyzed the overall concordance between the results obtained with QIP-MS and MRD-NGF at the three timepoints of disease evaluation, finding an overall concordance of 81% post-induction (n=76), 70% post-transplant (n=76) and 68% post-consolidation (n=77). Thus, when compared to the results of MRD-NGF, QIP-MS demonstrated sensitivities of 100%, 79% and 77% post-induction, post-ASCT and post-consolidation, and negative predictive values (NPV) of 100%, 79% and 82% at each respective time-point. (P 〈 0,0001; P = 0,0004; P = =,0012) Evaluation of discrepant cases showed 14 out of 22 MRD-NGF-negative patients post-induction for whom QIP-MS identified a M-spike; in some cases (i.e. IgG MM isotype) this may be related to a longer immunoglobulin half-life. There were no cases with detectable disease by NGF but QIP-MS negative. By contrast, post-ASCT, QIP-MS was negative in seven MRD-positive patients, two of whom became MRD-NGF-negative after consolidation; at last follow-up, none of them have progressed. On the other hand, sixteen patients with negative MRD-NGF after ASCT had a detectable M-spike by mass spectrometry. Of note, the M-spike became undetectable after consolidation in six out of these 16 patients. Post-consolidation, there were 7 patients in which MRD-NGF was positive but QIP-MS negative: MRD evaluation during maintenance is pending but none of them have so far progressed. By contrast, there were 18 patients with the M-spike detectable by QIP-MS but MRD-NGF negative: follow-up of these patients will address their outcome but, the only patient that has progressed so far had MRD-NGF negative post-induction, becoming positive post-transplant and consolidation, but the M-spike was detectable by QIP-MS throughout. Conclusions: M-spike monitoring by QIP-MS shows a moderate concordance with the MRD assessment by NGF in this group of HRsMM homogeneously treated. Longer follow-up will allow us to unravel the outcome of discordant cases and to define the specificity of QIP-MS and its complementary value to NGF.

Description: Introduction: SMM is an asymptomatic and heterogeneous plasma cell disorder. Both Spanish Myeloma and ECOG Groups have demonstrated that pts at high risk of progression to active MM benefit from early treatment with R-based regimens. Our next step was to design this phase 2, single arm trial, focusing on the same population, but with the potential goal of cure, defined by sustained minimal residual disease negativity (MRD-ve) at 5 years after HDT-ASCT. Patients and methods: Ninety SMM pts at high-risk of progression (〉50% at 2 yrs), younger than 70 years and transplant candidates were included. The high risk was defined by the presence of both ≥PC 10% and MC ≥3g/dL (Mayo) or ifonly one criterion was present, pts must 〉95%of aberrant PCs within the total PCsBM compartment by immunophenotyping plus immunoparesis (Spanish). Induction therapy consisted on six 4-weeks cycles of KRd in which K was given at dose of 36 mg/m2 twice per week plus R at dose of 25 mg on days 1-21 and dexamethasone at dose of 40 mg weekly. Melphalan at dose of 200 mg/m2 followed by ASCT was given as intensification therapy followed by two KRd consolidation cycles and maintenance with R at dose of 10 mg plus dexamethasone at dose of 20 mg weekly for up to 2 yrs. The primary end-point was to evaluate the MRD-ve rate by next generation flow (NGF) after induction and ASCT and our aim was to increase the MRD -ve rate from 34% (reported in NDMM pts after VTD and ASCT) to at least 50%. Results: Between June 2015 and June 2017, 90 high-risk SMM pts were recruited. Twenty-eight pts (32%) shared at least one of the new biomarkers predicting imminent risk of progression to MM. On February 4th, 2019, 71 pts were already receiving maintenance treatment; 7 pts had finalized the treatment and there were 11 early discontinuations (4 biochemical relapses during maintenance, 2 Informed Consent refusal, 3 adverse events and two deaths). After a median follow-up of 32 months (8-128), 93% of pts remain alive and free of progression and 98% of them alive. In the intent-to-treat pts' population, after induction, the ≥CR rate was 41% and increased to 59% after HDT-ASCT and to 70% after consolidation. In the same analysis, MRD-ve rate was observed in 30% of pts after induction, 52% after HDT-ASCT and 57% after consolidation. If we focus on the 83 pts who completed induction, HDT-ASCT and consolidation, the ≥CR/undetectable MRD rates were 42%/31%, 64%/56% and 76%/63% after each step, respectively. Concerning toxicity, during induction, G3-4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia were reported in 5 (6%) and 10 pts (11%), respectively. G3-4 infections were reported in 16 pts (18%), followed by skin rash in 8 pts (9%). One patient reported G1 atrial fibrillation and another cardiac failure secondary to respiratory infection. Three pts reported hypertension (G2 in two and G3 in one). In all but two of the pts, PBSC collection was successful with a median of 4.10 x 106/Kg CD34 cells collected. All pts engrafted but one patient developed late graft failure. During consolidation, 2 pts developed G3-4 neutropenia, 3 pts G3-4 infections and 1 pt skin rash. Maintenance treatment is ongoing and one patient had to discontinue due to a second primary malignancy (lung cancer) and other due to sustained thrombocytopenia. Conclusions: The primary end point of the trial was met, and 56% of the pts who completed induction and HDT-ASCT achieved MRD-ve. This "curative strategy for high risk SMM" continues being encouraging and 93% of pts remain alive and progression-free at 30 months and 98% of pts alive.

Description: Introduction: The GEM-CESAR trial is a potentially curative strategy for high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma (HRsMM) patients (pts) in which the primary endpoint is the achievement of bone marrow minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity. However, other methods of disease evaluation in serum such as heavy+light chain (HLC) assessment, with a potential complementary value to the IMWG response criteria, have also been tested. Aim: To evaluate the performance of HLC assay in HRsMM pts at diagnosis and after consolidation, comparing the results with standard serological methods and Next Generation Flow (NGF) for the assessment of bone marrow MRD. Patients and Methods: Ninety HRsMM pts included in the GEM-CESAR trial received six 4-weeks cycles of carfilzomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone followed by high dose melphalan and 2 further cycles of consolidation with the same regimen. All pts received maintenance treatment with lenalidomide for up to 2 years. SPEP and IFE were performed using standard procedures. Serum IgGk, IgGl, IgAk and IgAl HLC concentrations were measured using Hevylite (The Binding Site Group Ltd, Birmingham, UK) on a SPA PLUS turbidimeter. HLC concentrations and ratios were considered abnormal if they were outside the 95% reference ranges provided by the manufacturer. MRD was analyzed by flow cytometry following EuroFlow recommendations (sensitivity, 2x10-6). Standard response assignment was carried out as per the IMWG guidelines. Hevylite responses were assigned and HLC-pair suppression was defined as in Michalet et al (Leukemia 2018). Results: Out of 90 HRsMM pts, 75 had monoclonal intact immunoglobulin and samples available at diagnosis (50 IgG and 25 IgA). HLC ratio was abnormal in 98% of IgG pts and in 100% of IgA pts. Response assessment by Hevylite and standard IMWG criteria were available in 62 pts post-consolidation (Table 1). A good agreement was found between the two methods (kappa quadratic weighting = 0,6327 (0,4016 - 0,8638)). Among 46 pts with assigned CR as per the IMWG response criteria, there were 3 and 8 pts in PR and VGPR according to the Hevylite method, respectively. In 62 cases, paired Hevylite and MRD assessment data were available. Concordant results were found in 72.5% of cases (45/62; HLC+/NGF+ in 15 and HLC-/NGF- in 30 cases) while in the remaining 27.4% of cases results were discordant (17/62; HLC-/NGF+ in 6 and HLC+/NGF- in 11 cases). Post-consolidation, 24, 25.8 and 42.3% of the 62 samples were positive by SPEP, NGF and Hevylite, respectively. HLC-pair suppression was identified in 13/62 pts; 10 had severe HLC-pair suppression at the end of consolidation. After a median follow-up of 32 months (8-128), 93% of pts remain alive and progression-free. Three patients that have already progressed had their responses assessed post-consolidation. The first pt was assigned VGPR by the standard IMWG criteria and PR by Hevylite and was MRD positive by NGF; the second pt was assigned CR by IMWG criteria and Hevylite but had severe HLC-pair immunosuppression and was MRD positive by NGF; the third pt was in CR by IMWG and HLC criteria and was MRD positive by MFC. Conclusions: Moderate agreement was found between response assessment by Hevylite and the standard IMWG methods as well as between Hevylite and MRD assessment by NGF. Most discordances were a result of Hevylite detecting disease in samples negative by the standard methods, but longer follow-up is needed to ascertain its clinical value. HLC assessment could have anticipated the progression noted in 2 (out of 3) patients.

Description: Introduction: In recent years, the multiple myeloma (MM) treatment (Tx) landscape has evolved considerably, with the approval of effective novel agents, such as immunomodulatory drugs (thalidomide, lenalidomide, and most recently, pomalidomide) and proteasome inhibitors (bortezomib and carfilzomib; Chng et al, Leukemia, 2014). However, most patients relapse and patterns of relapse in MM can be heterogeneous (Alegre et al, Haematologica, 2002). Tx rescue for MM relapse should begin at symptomatic clinical relapse (clinR) and probably earlier at asymptomatic biological relapse (BR; specifically when significant paraprotein relapse), according to the International Myeloma Workshop Consensus Panel (Rajkumar et al, Blood, 2011). In the case of asymptomatic BR/progression, rescue Tx could be delayed in a subset of pts (Fernández de Larrea et al, Bone Marrow Transplant, 2014), particularly when M-component and hemoglobin levels are stable. Progressive increases of M-spike blood and/or urine could lead to rescue Tx, even in the absence of clinical symptoms, to avoid complications (ie, renal failure, plasmacytomas, bone lesions; Castelli et al, Clin Med Insights Oncol, 2013). This Spanish registry (EPA-MMBR) is an observational prospective study to describe MM relapse patterns, comparing the impact of Tx decisions (starting Tx at BR vs delaying Tx until clinR). We present the updated preliminary results of this study. Methods: MM pts in (or prior to) first or second BR who had achieved ≥ PR since their last Tx were included. Bi-monthly evaluations were performed. Forty-one Spanish sites are participating after approval from their independent ethics committees, with 410 pts expected to be included. The main objective was to assess time to progression (TTP) from BR in both groups (pts who started Tx at the onset of asymptomatic BR vs pts who started Tx at clinR). Secondary objectives included demographic, clinical, and Tx characteristics; median time from BR to clinR; and response rates. Here we present the results of 138 pts with baseline data (48.4%) of a total of 285 registered. Results: In the cohort evaluated (n = 138), mean age was 67.9 years, and 50.7% were male. MM types were IgG Κ (43.5%), IgG λ (22.1%), IgA Κ (16%), and IgA λ (7.6%). Prognostic stage at diagnosis according to the International Staging System (ISS) was II (32.6%) followed by I and III (22.7% each) and data not available (22%). Pts' cytogenetic risk included standard risk (20.8%), high risk (8.5%), and no cytogenetic alterations (32.3%). More than half of pts (51.5%) had received autologous stem cell transplant, 13.2% consolidation and 21.1% maintenance. After first-line Tx, pts had achieved sCR (16.0%), CR (33.6%), VGPR (28.8%), or PR (21.6%). Pts with BR had a median time from diagnosis to BR of 2.66 years. Tx was delayed until clinR in 51.2% of pts, and 48.8% had started Tx at BR (73.3% of whom had significant paraprotein relapse; Figure); there were no relevant differences in demographic and clinical characteristics between the 2 groups. Median time to BR was 31.97 months. Median time from BR to clinR was 105.0 days. Among pts who started Tx at BR, most pts received lenalidomide-based Tx (75% at first relapse and 70.6% at second relapse). At the time of the analysis, only 3 pts had disease progression (1 in each group). In pts who started Tx at BR, first-line Tx after diagnosis was mainly bortezomib-based (73.3%). sCR was achieved in 20.0% of pts, CR in 33.3%, PR in 26.7%, and VGPR in 20.0%. Since the beginning of the study, Tx was prescribed in 54 pts (39.1%). Since only 3 pts had progressed, further follow-up data, particularly in terms of TTP and survival, are needed to identify differences between these 2 strategies. Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first prospective study in MM that evaluates the effects of starting Tx at BR vs starting Tx at clinR. In this updated cohort, we find that almost half of pts started Tx at BR (48.8%). We also found that a higher percentage of pts started Tx at BR with significant paraprotein relapse (73.3%), which seems to be a clear factor guiding Tx decision for the physician. Further follow-up and a complete study are needed to identify the differences between these 2 strategies and to define patients who could benefit from early Tx. Figure 1.

Description: Continuous treatment with lenalidomide (R) and dexamethasone (d) is a standard of care for multiple myeloma (MM) patients (pts) not candidates for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). As previously reported, the addition of Clarithromycin (C) to Rd has proven to be safe and effective, and case-control analyses suggested a significant additive value with the combination. C optimizes the therapeutic effect of glucocorticoids by increasing the area under the curve, has immunomodulatory effects and may have direct antineoplastic properties. However, there are not randomized phase III trials confirming these results. GEM-Claridex in an open, randomized, phase III trial for untreated newly diagnosed MM pts ineligible for ASCT. Enrolled pts were randomly assigned 1:1 to receive 28-day cycles of R (25mg po qd days 1-21), d (40mg po [20mg in pts 〉75 years], days 1, 8, 15 and 22) plus or minus C (500mg po bid) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints included overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS) and minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate and safety. MRD was evaluated in 99 pts using Euroflow NGF (limit of detection, 2x10-6). As expected, most pts in CR were tested for MRD whereas the majority of pts with missing MRD data achieved VGPR or less and were thus considered as MRD-positive for intent to treat analyses. Two hundred and eighty-eight pts were included (144 to C-Rd and 144 to Rd). Median age was 76 (range: 65-93), 36.8% of pts had ISS 3 and 15.6% presented with high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities. Key baseline characteristics were well balanced between the two arms. The addition of C to Rd resulted in deeper responses with a ≥ complete response (CR) rate of 20.1% in the C-Rd arm compared to 11.2% in the Rd arm (p = 0.037). Also, the ≥ very good partial response (VGPR) rate was 52.8% in the C-Rd arm as compared to the 37.1% in the Rd arm (p = 0.007). MRD analysis was performed at suspected CR and yearly afterwards. On intent-to-treat, 5/144 (3,5%) and 9/143 (6,2%) of pts achieved undetectable MRD with C-Rd and Rd, respectively (p = 0,7). With a median follow-up of 16 months (range, 1-47), no significant differences were observed in PFS: in the C-Rd arm the median was 23 months and has not been reached in the Rd arm (p = 0.09); furthermore, although disease progression and/or death rate was comparable in both arms (C-Rd: 57/144 [39.6%] vs Rd: 45/144 [31.2%]), a trend towards shorter PFS was observed in the C-Rd group (Figure 1). This effect was less evident in younger ( 75 years and being early deaths. Overexposure to steroids due to the delayed clearance induced by C in this elderly population could explain our results.
