Abstract
Precursor diseases of multiple myeloma (MM) are monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance and smoldering MM. While it is well known that a percentage of those affected by these conditions will progress to MM, it is difficult to predict who will progress and when, and guidelines for screening for these conditions are lacking. Moreover, there are various models for risk stratification, though there are ongoing efforts to improve these models in order to predict who may benefit from treatment. Finally, there are various clinical trials, both past and ongoing, expanding the scope of possible treatment options for precursor diseases.

Abstract
MDM2 genes amplification or altered expression is commonly observed in various cancers bearing wild-type TP53. Directly targeting the p53-binding pocket of MDM2 to activate the p53 pathway represents a promising therapeutic approach. Despite the development of numerous potent MDM2 inhibitors that have advanced into clinical trials, their utility is frequently hampered by drug resistance and hematologic toxicity such as neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. The emergence of PROTAC technology has revolutionized drug discovery and development, with applications in both preclinical and clinical research. Harnessing the power of PROTAC molecules to achieve MDM2 targeted degradation and p53 reactivation holds significant promise for cancer therapy. In this review, we summarize representative MDM2 PROTAC degraders and provide insights for researchers investigating MDM2 proteins and the p53 pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sebaceous carcinoma (SC) is a rare skin cancer with significant associated morbidity and mortality. A known association exists between immunosuppression, in particular solid organ transplant patients (SOTR), and SC. However, the comparative reporting odds ratios (ROR) of different immunosuppressive medications and SC are incompletely defined. OBJECTIVES To examine the relationship between SC and medication exposure in the FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS). METHODS Case-control analyses were performed in FAERS from 1968 to 2021 to examine the reporting odds ratios (ROR) for SC. RESULTS A total of 58 medication-associated SC cases were identified. Immunosuppressant medication exposure was noted in 81% cases, with 20% total cases occurring in SOTR. Medications affecting the TNF- α -IL-1-IL-2-IL-6 inflammatory axis were associated with elevated ROR for SC, including thalidomide (ROR 22.63, 95% CI 5.52-92.72), lenalidomide (ROR 10.86, 95% CI 4.93-23.94), cyclosporine, tacrolimus, tocilizumab, tofacitinib and ruxolitinib. Thirty per cent of cases of SC occurred with an associated haematologic malignancy or dyscrasia, including chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and multiple myeloma. CONCLUSIONS SC is associated with exposure to immunosuppressive medications, especially in SOTR patients. A significant portion of cases with SC had an associated haematology malignancy, in particular multiple myeloma with exposure to lenalidomide.

Abstract
In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), p53 tumor suppressor activity can be reduced due to enhanced expression of MDM2 which promotes the degradation of p53. In TP53 wild-type malignancies, therapy with small molecule antagonists of MDM2 results in antileukemic activity. Current treatment strategies, however, have been limited by poor tolerability and incomplete clinical activity. We have developed a proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) MS3227 that targets MDM2 by recruiting the E3 ligase Von Hippel-Lindau, resulting in proteasome-dependent degradation of MDM2. In WT TP53 leukemia cell lines, MS3227 led to activation of p53 targets p21, PUMA, and MDM2 and resulted in cell-cycle arrest, apoptosis, and decreased viability. The catalytic PROTAC MS3227 led to more potent activation when compared to a stoichiometric inhibitor, in part by dampening the negative feedback mechanism in the p53 - MDM2 circuit. The effectiveness of MS3227 was also observed in primary patient specimens with selectivity towards leukemic blasts. The addition of MS3227 enhanced the activity of other anti-leukemic agents including azacytidine, cytarabine, and venetoclax. In particular, MS3227 treatment was shown to downregulate MCL-1, a known mediator of resistance to venetoclax. A PROTAC-based approach may provide a means of improving MDM2 inhibition to gain greater therapeutic potential in AML.

Abstract
Background Several chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR T) targeting CD19 have induced profound and prolonged remission for refractory/relapsed (R/R) B-cell lymphoma. The risk of secondary malignancies, especially myeloid neoplasms, is of particular concern in the CAR T community, which still remains unclear. Methods Four patients with R/R B-cell lymphoma after CD19 CAR T therapy diagnosed with secondary myeloid neoplasms (SMN) from 2 hospitals in eastern China were presented, including 3 with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and 1 with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), we compared the cellular components of bone marrow (BM) samples obtained from one of these MDS patients and a health donor. We also provided a review of recently published literature concerning SMN risk of CAR T therapy. Results Relevant demographic, clinical, laboratory, therapeutic and outcome data were collected and presented by chart review. In our case series, the male-female ratio was 3.0 and the median age at MDS onset was 61.25 years old (range, 50-78). Median number of previous systemic therapies was 4.5 (range, 4-5), including autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) in one patient. BM assessments prior to CAR T therapy confirmed normal hematopoiesis without myeloid neoplasms. Moreover, for 3 patients with SMN in our series, cytogenetic analysis predicted a relatively adverse outcome. In our experience and in the literature, treatment choices for the patients with SMN included allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), hypomethylating agent (HMA), period filgrastim, transfusions and other supportive care. Finally, treatment responses of lymphoma, together with SMN, directly correlated with the overall survival of this community. Of note, it appeared that pathogenesis of MDS wasn't associated with the CAR T toxicities, since all 4 patients experienced a pretty mild CRS of grade 1-2. Additionally, scRNA-seq analysis described the transcriptional alteration of CD34+ cells, identified 13 T/NK clusters, and also indicated increased cytotoxic T cells in MDS BM. Conclusion Our study illustrated the onset and progression of SMN after CD19 CAR T therapy in patients with R/R B-cell lymphoma, which provides useful information of this uncommon later event.

Abstract
Introduction Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common hematological malignancy, accounting for 1% of all cancers, with median age of diagnosis between 66–70 years. MM remains incurable despite advances in treatment over time. Lenalidomide is an important medication used in induction therapy for MM and is also used for maintenance therapy for standard risk patients. With its increasing use, data is emerging about its use being associated with increased risk of secondary primary malignancies (SPM), especially when used as maintenance therapy. Case series: In this case series, we describe three patients with refractory MM treated with lenalidomide maintenance who later developed sALL. All had a common presentation of pancytopenia. They developed cytopenias while being on lenalidomide which was refractory to lenalidomide cessation, prompting bone marrow biopsy. Management and outcome: Lenalidomide was subsequently stopped, and patients were treated for secondary B-ALL. However, all passed away either due to relapse of disease or complications arising from treatment. Discussion: The mechanism of lenalidomide associated SPMs is not well understood however its incidence is well documented. At least 13 cases of ALL (predominantly B-cell ALL) following Immunomodulator imide drugs (IMiDs) have been reported in literature. An analysis of a larger cohort of patients is required to determine causality of lenalidomide with sALL. However, benefits of maintenance lenalidomide in patients with MM outweighs the risk of developing SPMs. Albeit persistent pancytopenia on lenalidomide therapy should be evaluated with bone marrow biopsy since it could be caused by secondary B -cell ALL.

Abstract
Simple Summary Multiple myeloma (MM) patients with relapsing and/or refractory (RR) disease are exposed for a prolonged time to multiple drugs, which increase the risk of toxicity. In addition to tumor response, preserving the quality of life represents an important goal for this patient population. Therefore, supportive therapy plays a pivotal role in their treatment by limiting disease- and drug-related complications. The aim of this review is to outline current standards and future strategies to prevent and treat renal insufficiency, anemia, bone disease, and infection, including COVID-19, in RRMM patients. In addition, the incidence and treatment of side effects of novel anti-MM agents will be discussed. Abstract Relapsed/refractory (RR) multiple myeloma (MM) patients are a fragile population because of prolonged drug exposure and advanced age. Preserving a good quality of life is of high priority for these patients and the treatment of disease- and treatment-related complications plays a key role in their management. By preventing and limiting MM-induced complications, supportive care improves patients’ outcome. Erythropoietin-stimulating agents and bisphosphonates are well-established supportive strategies, yet novel agents are under investigation, such as anabolic bone agents and activin receptor-like kinase (ALK) inhibitors. The recent dramatic changes in the treatment landscape of MM pose an additional challenge for the routine care of RRMM patients. Multidrug combinations in first and later lines increase the risk for long-lasting toxicities, including adverse cardiovascular and neurological events. Moreover, recently approved first-in-class drugs have unique side-effect profiles, such as ocular toxicity of belantamab mafodotin or gastrointestinal toxicity of selinexor. This review discusses current standards in supportive treatment of RRMM patients, including recommendations in light of the recent SARS-CoV-19 pandemic, and critically looks at the incidence and management of side effects of standard as well as next generation anti-MM agents.

Abstract
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is rare in young patients - especially before 40 years at diagnosis, representing less than 2% of all patients with MM. Little is known about the disease characteristics and prognosis of these patients. In this study we examined 214 patients diagnosed with MM ≤ 40 years old over 15 years, in the era of modern treatments. Among them, 189 patients had symptomatic MM. Disease characteristics were similar to older patients: 35% had anemia, 17% had renal impairment, and 13% hypercalcemia. The staging was ISS-1 in 52.4%, ISS-2 in 27.5% and ISS-3 in 20.1%. Overall, 18% of patients had high risk cytogenetics (del 17p and/or t(4;14)). Ninety percent of patients received intensive chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant, and 25% of patients had allogeneic stem cell transplantation predominantly at time of relapse. The median follow-up was 76 months, the estimated median overall survival was 14.5 years and the median PFS was 41 months. In multivariate analysis, bone lesions (HR=3.95; p=0.01), high ISS score (HR=2.14; p=0.03) and high-risk cytogenetics (HR=4.54; p<0.0001) were significant risk factors for poor outcomes. Among predefined time-dependent covariables, onset of progression (HR=13.2; p<0.0001) significantly shortened OS. At 5 years, Relative Survival compared to same age and sex matched individuals was 83.5%, and estimated Standardized Mortality Ratio was 69.9 (95%CI 52.7-91.1), confirming that MM dramatically shortens the survival of young patients despite an extended survival after diagnosis.

Abstract
As survival times of multiple myeloma (MM) patients continue to improve, second primary malignancies (SPM) have become an increasingly relevant long-term risk among MM survivors. Population studies since the 1950s have consistently observed an increased incidence of hematologic SPMs, specifically acute leukemia, among MM survivors. Prolonged treatment with alkylators, especially melphalan, was associated with an increased hematologic SPM risk; likewise, autologous stem cell transplantation appeared to minimally increase SPM risk. Immunomodulatory drugs, specifically lenalidomide, was associated with an increased SPM incidence, although most studies concluded that the benefits of therapy outweighed any risks of SPM. Newer anti-myeloma therapy such as proteasome inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies did not appear to increase SPM risk although robust long-term follow-up is lacking. This review discusses current understanding regarding SPMs among survivors of MM, how different host-, disease- and treatment-related factors contribute to SPM incidence and highlights emerging screening guidelines and prognosis for SPMs.

Abstract
Leukemic infiltration of the myocardium is an extremely rare complication and requires high clinical suspicion, as <5% pf patients are symptomatic. Commonly encountered cardiovascular complications are secondary to anemia, infections, and chemotherapy. We present an unusual case of biopsy-proven myocardial B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in an elderly male on chronic maintenance therapy with lenalidomide, with a previous history of multiple myeloma (MM) and subsequent ALL. Lenalidomide is a Category 1 recommendation for primary and maintenance therapy of MM, but there is growing evidence of secondary primary malignancies (SPMs). Despite this increase in SPM, the overall survival (OS) benefit associated with the use of maintenance immunomodulatory (IMID) therapy in multiple myeloma outweighs the risk of SPMs. Only age-appropriate screening methods are recommended. This case report serves as an important reminder of a rare manifestation of leukemia and presents as anecdotal evidence of response to the monoclonal antibody inotuzumab for visceral involvement of ALL, which has not been reported to our knowledge and requires further exploration.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) is a curative therapy for patients with secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML), though the impact of conditioning regimens on HCT outcomes for patients with antecedent lymphoid malignancy is largely unknown. This multicenter, retrospective registry study of the ALWP of the EBMT assessed HCT outcomes in this population. In all, 549 patients ≥18 years with sAML following an antecedent lymphoid malignancy treated with first allograft between 2000-2016 were included. Myeloablative (MAC) and reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) was given in 258 (47%) and 291 (53%), respectively. At 2 years, leukemia-free survival (LFS) was 31.7% (95% CI, 27.5-35.9), overall survival (OS) was 37.4% (95% CI, 33-41.8), nonrelapse mortality (NRM) was 28.9% (95% CI, 25-33), and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) was 22.8% (95% CI, 19-26.6). In multivariate analysis, patients receiving RIC regimens had lower risk of NRM (HR: 0.58, CI: 0.40-0.83, p = 0.003), and improved LFS (HR: 0.67, CI: 0.52-0.85, p = 0.001). Patients with prior autologous HCT had inferior LFS (HR: 1.30, CI: 1.01-1.67, p = 0.01). This study demonstrates that sAML patients following prior lymphoid malignancy treated with RIC regimens have a lower risk of NRM and improved LFS, OS, and GFRS. Other variables associated with inferior outcomes include older age, active disease, adverse cytogenetics, and prior auto-HCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the longer survival achieved in multiple myeloma (MM) patients due to new therapy strategies, a concern is emerging regarding an increased risk of secondary primary malignancies (SPMs) and how to characterize those patients at risk. We performed a retrospective study covering a 28-year follow-up period (1991-2018) in a tertiary single institution. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data of 403 MM patients were recorded and compared with the epidemiologic register of the population area covered by our centre, calculating the standardize incidence ratio (SIR) for the different types of SPMs diagnosed in the MM cohort. Fine and Gray regression models were used to identify risk factors for SPMs. RESULTS Out of the 403 MM patients, 23 (5.7%) developed SPMs: 13 therapy-related myeloid (TRM) malignancies (10 of them (77%) myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), 1 acute lymphoid leukaemia and 9 solid neoplasms. In the MM cohort, the relative risk of MDS was significantly higher than in the general population. Survival of patients with TRM malignancies was poor with a median of 4 months from the diagnosis, and most of them showed complex karyotype. Within the MM subset, multivariable analysis showed a higher risk of TRM malignancies in patients that previously received prolonged treatment with lenalidomide (>18 months). CONCLUSIONS Though the improvement in MM outcome during the last decades is an unprecedented achievement, it has been accompanied by the rise in TRM malignancies with complex cytogenetic profile and poor prognosis that are in the need of an improved biologic and therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Outcomes for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) have improved through use of novel treatments, especially lenalidomide combined with autologous stem cell transplantation. However, because of their increased life expectancy, an increased risk of secondary primary malignancies (SPMs) has been observed in MM patients, particularly after lenalidomide maintenance in both transplant-eligible (TE) and transplant-ineligible (TI) patients. To evaluate the incidence and risk factors of developing SPMs, we identified 17 TE-MM and 12 TI-MM patients with SPMs among 211 TE-MM and 280 TI-MM patients, including seven TE-MM and four TI-MM patients with hematological malignancies and ten TE-MM and eight TI-MM patients with non-hematological cancers, respectively. The median follow-up time from diagnosis was > 4 years. Multivariate analysis identified a history of high-dose cyclophosphamide use for peripheral blood stem cell harvest in TE-MM patients and > 65 years of age at diagnosis, or a history of adriamycin, lenalidomide, or thalidomide use in TI-MM patients as independent risk factors for SPMs (P < 0.001). Patients with a history of lenalidomide use had a lower risk of death among both TE-MM (P = 0.0326) and TI-MM (P < 0.001) patients. The survival benefit of receiving lenalidomide outweighed the increased risk of SPMs in both TE-and TI-MM patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 7 regimens of pentostatin based chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) for progressive previously untreated CLL primarily with long term follow-up to update both efficacy and toxicity. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Prognostic markers including assessment of IGVH and FISH status were done on all. Response rates and 95% binomial confidence intervals were calculated for each regimen and in the combined cohort. Overall survival and treatment-free survival were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier methods. RESULTS The initial CIT trial was pentostatin (2 mgs/m2), cyclophosphamide (600 mg/m2) and rituximab (PCR) but subsequent P based CIT trials with modifications in subsequent trials. The cohort (n = 288) included 52% with unmutated IGVH status and del17p (4.5%) and del11q (14.9%). Toxicity profiles were primarily hematologic and no patient has developed MDS or AML after a median follow-up of 6.4 years. The overall response rate across all trials was found to be over 90% with a 41% complete response rate. We validated that the CLL IPI model segregates progressive CLL patients into 4 risk groups associated with OS and TFS. CONCLUSIONS The high overall and complete response levels in favorable genetic risk CLL along with favorable toxicity profiles provide rationale for consideration of a PC based strategy for previously untreated progressive CLL.

Abstract
Lenalidomide in combination with dexamethasone (Len‐dex) represents a highly effective treatment in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients. However, an increased risk of secondary primary malignancies (SPMs), including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) has been described in patients receiving lenalidomide. In order to assess the incidence and features of this complication, we reviewed 195 patients with RRMM treated with Len‐dex at our institution. The median follow‐up time from diagnosis of MM was 73 months (10–234 months) and from initiation of Len‐dex was 19 months (1–104 months). The median duration of Len‐dex for all patients was 7.8 months (range 1–90 months). The incidence rate (IR) for all SPMs from start of Len‐dex was 2.37 per 100 patient‐years, which reflected an IR of 1.29 for MDS/AML and 1.08 for nonhematologic malignancies (NHM). MDS was the most common SPM noted. The cumulative IR of SPM at 5 years was 1.54% from the time of MM diagnosis and 5.24% from starting Len‐dex. Multivariable cumulative incidence of SPM analysis identified older age (P = 0.005) and prior number of regimens (P = 0.026) as adverse risk factors. We found more concomitant G‐CSF use (P = 0.029) in patients with MDS/AML, however, causal association is not clear. The progression‐free survival after Len‐dex was the longest for patients in MDS/AML group, and the 5‐year overall survival did not differ among groups. Although the rate of SPM was relatively low with Len‐dex, concomitant G‐CSF should be used judiciously and patients receiving this regimen should be observed for the development of this complication.
