RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the clinical features of IgD multiple myeloma (MM) and the effect and prognosis of daratumumab-based combination therapy.Methods:The clinicopathological data of a IgD MM patient with disease progression and extramedullary infiltration treated with daratumumab in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University in December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The 74-year-old woman was diagnosed as IgD MM by bone marrow aspiration and immunofixation electrophoresis. The patient was given VD (bortezomib, dexamethasone), RD (lenalidomide, dexamethasone) and ID (ixazomib, dexamethasone) regimens. In June 2020, the patient developed multiple subcutaneous nodules, and she was assessed as progressive disease with extensive extramedullary infiltration. After treated with daratumumab-PAD (liposomal doxorubicin, bortezomib, dexamethasone) regimen, the patient's subcutaneous nodules were significantly reduced and partially disappeared, and the general condition was significantly improved. But the patient was in a cachexia state and finally died of the irregular treatment and disease progression.Conclusions:IgD MM has a low incidence and a short survival period, and there is no uniform standard treatment. The early application of daratumumab combined with proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulators, cytotoxic drugs and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation may improve the overall survival of patients.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the clinical significances of additional chromosome abnormalities and t(15;17) in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Methods A total of 90 newly diagnosed APL patients in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2007 to June 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. Patients with different chromosome karyotypes were divided into four groups: additional chromosome number abnormalities group (16 cases), additional chromosome structural abnormalities group (14 cases), additional chromosome number and structural abnormalities group (4 cases) and typical chromosome group (56 cases). According to whether the patient contained t(15;17), the patients were divided into group with t (15;17) and group without t (15;17). The short-term efficacy and survival of each group were analyzed and compared. Results The rate of complete remission in additional chromosome number abnormalities group, additional chromosome structural abnormalities group, additional chromosome number and structural abnormalities group and typical t(15;17) chromosome changes group were 56.3％(9/16), 100.0％(14/14), 25.0％(1/4) and 82.1％(46/56), the early mortality rates were 25.0％(4/16), 0 (0/14), 75.0％(3/4) and 8.9％ (5/56) respectively. Among them, the additional number and structural abnormalities group had lower complete remission rate and higher early mortality rate, and compared with other groups, the differences were statistically significant (all P< 0.05). The complete remission rates of the group with t (15;17) and the group without t (15;17) were 80.5％ (66/82) and 50.0％ (4/8), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P= 0.070). Conclusions APL patients with karyotypes with additional number and structural changes have low complete remission rate, high early mortality rate and poor prognosis. Patients with t(15;17)have a high rate of complete remission.
