Multiple myeloma-associated amyloidosis is an independent high-risk prognostic factor

Several prognostic factors have been recognized in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Among the most important are: the serum levels of β2-microglobulin, albumin, and LDH; the labeling index; and an abnormal karyotype. Patients with amyloidosis (AL) have poor prognosis; however, little is known co...

description Several prognostic factors have been recognized in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Among the most important are: the serum levels of β2-microglobulin, albumin, and LDH; the labeling index; and an abnormal karyotype. Patients with amyloidosis (AL) have poor prognosis; however, little is known concerning the prognostic significance of AL associated to MM. In 201 consecutive patients with de novo MM, we performed a fat-pad biopsy needle aspiration (FPBNA) that was stained with Congo red. Sixty eight (34%) patients had AL and a poorer prognosis disease: lower performance status, presence of B symptoms, higher LDH and calcium values, and worse response to chemotherapy. Cox regression model for overall survival detected three variables having independent prognostic significance: the presence of AL (RR = 3.4, P
