[Prognostic factors in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients with 1q21 amplification/gain treated with bortezomib-based regimens followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation].
Objective: To explore the prognostic factors in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients with 1q21 amplification/gain treated with bortezomib-based regimens followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Methods: We retrospectively assayed 35 NDMM patients with 1q21 amplification/gain who received bortezomib-based chemotherapy followed by ASCT and maintenance therapy between January 2008 and August 2015. Results: ①The median age of 35 patients were 49(33-63)years old. ⋯ The presence of additional other high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities resulted in significantly shortened PFS (χ(2)=5.404, P=0.020) and OS (χ(2)=7.596, P=0.006) compared with no high-risk cytogenetic patients. Conclusion: NDMM patients with isolated1q21 amplification/gain were rarely and usually had additional other cytogenetic abnormalities. The outcomes in this group treated with bortezomib-based chemotherapy followed by ASCT and maintenance therapy were satisfied, additional other high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities made PFS and OS further shortened.
