Abstract
In the modern era of multiple myeloma therapeutics, proteasome inhibitor (PI) and immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) have replaced chemotherapy regimens for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients. Treatment combinations that comprise both first- and next-generation PIs, including bortezomib, carfilzomib, and ixazomib and IMiDs, including thalidomide and lenalidomide, have been evaluated in phases II and III clinical trials and have shown significant efficacy with manageable toxicity profiles. Bortezomib or carfilzomib with lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRD and KRD) are the most promising regimens resulting in significant survival improvement. Disease and patient characteristics should lead the individualization of treatment, with the eligibility for autologous transplant being of principal importance. The addition of a monoclonal antibody to PI with IMiD combinations is currently under clinical investigation and may lead to further treatment optimization.

Abstract
Intracerebral plasmacytoma is an extremely rare disease for which no treatment protocol has been established. The authors present a case of metastatic intracerebral plasmacytoma that was partially resected and treated with radiation therapy. For tumor recurrence, a combination chemotherapy regimen was initiated. A 48-year-old male patient presented with dizziness and memory loss. Conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain revealed a multilobulated mass with enhancing cystic and solid components measuring 7 × 7 × 6 cm in the left frontal lobe. The patient had undergone subtotal gastrectomy and transverse colectomy 8 years before admission and had been diagnosed with extraosseous plasmacytoma. At the time of the current presentation, the patient underwent craniotomy for the parenchymal lesion. Partial tumor resection was performed. Histologic and immunohistochemical examinations confirmed the diagnosis of plasmacytoma. Fractionated radiotherapy was administered, and no enhancing mass was observed on follow-up MRI. One year after radiotherapy, tumor recurrence was observed in a different area of the cerebral parenchyma. Combination thalidomide, dexamethasone, and cyclophosphamide chemotherapy was administered. After three cycles of chemotherapy, the tumor was well controlled on MRI. Hereafter, two more times of tumor recurrence occurred in the other sites of the cerebral parenchyma, but with chemoradiation therapy, the tumor was well suppressed. The findings of this case suggest that the cerebral parenchyma can be one of the metastatic sites for extraosseous plasmacytoma. In addition, combination chemotherapy with thalidomide, dexamethasone, and cyclophosphamide may be a useful treatment option for intracerebral plasmacytoma.

Single Dose Preemptive Plerixafor for Stem Cell Mobilization for ASCT After Lenalidomide Based Therapy in Multiple Myeloma: Impact in Resource Limited Setting. Indian J Hematol Blood Transfus 2017; 33:463-469.

Abstract
Peripheral blood stem cell mobilization with cytokines for autologous stem cell transplant in multiple myeloma is adversely affected by initial induction therapy consisting of either Lenalidomide or cytotoxic drugs, with failure rates of up to 45%. The use of Plerixafor with G-CSF for PBSC mobilisation significantly improves the chances of a successful mobilization. Plerixafor is a costly therapy and increases the overall costs of ASCT which can affect the number of patients being taken up for ASCT in resource limited settings. We prospectively studied the impact of single dose preemptive Plerixafor for PBSC mobilization in patients with prior Lenalidomide exposure. 26 patients who had received Lenalidomide based induction protocol underwent PBSC mobilisation during the study period with G-CSF 10 μg/kg/day SC for 4 days and single dose preemptive Plerixafor 240 μg/kg SC stat 11 h before the scheduled PB stem cell harvest on D5, based on a D4 PB CD34+ counts of <20/μL. A median of 07 cycles of Lenalidomide based combination therapy was used for induction therapy prior to ASCT. 84% patients underwent successful mobilization with one sitting of stem cell harvest post a single dose of Inj Plerixafor. 7.6% patients failed to mobilise the predefined minimum cell dose of CD34 and could not be taken up for ASCT. The median CD34% of the harvest bag sample was 0.33% (0.1-0.97%). Injection site erythema (34%), paresthesia's (34%) and nausea (30%) were the commonest adverse events reported post Inj Plerixafor. We did a real-world cost analysis for a resource limited setting for PBSC mobilization and found significant cost savings for the preemptive Plerixafor group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM DNA topoisomerases are ubiquitous enzymes that regulate conformational changes in DNA topology during essential cellular processes, and, for this reason, have been characterized as the cellular targets of a number of anticancer drugs. Bortezomib is a powerful proteasome inhibitor used in the treatment of hematological malignancies. In this study, we investigated the inhibitory effects of bortezomib on human topoisomerase I and II enzymes both alone and in combination modes with camptothecin and etoposide. MATERIALS AND METHODS The interactions of these drugs with topoisomerase enzymes were evaluated by relaxation assay in cell-free systems. IC50 values of the drugs on topoisomerase enzymes were calculated using the S probit analysis program. RESULTS Bortezomib showed a very weak inhibition effect on topoisomerase I (IC50 = 87.11 mM). On the other hand, it had a strong inhibitory effect on topoisomerase II (IC50 = 1.41 mM). Our results indicated that bortezomib is effective not only on proteasome but also on topoisomerase II. In addition, bortezomib possesses an increased synergistic effect when used in combination with camptothecin and etoposide than when used alone. CONCLUSION The results of this study point out that these data may build a framework for combination studies with bortezomib, camptothecin, and etoposide in the treatment of cancer.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma is a disorder of plasma cells which can involve kidneys in the form of cast nephropathy. Neoplastic plasma cells produce either complete immunoglobulins or fragments of immunoglobulins leading to a monoclonal spike in the serum and/or Bence Jones proteinuria. Very few patients present as non-secretory myeloma when no immunoglobulins (M spike) are produced or only light chains are secreted which can only be detected in urine. Acute renal failure due to cast nephropathy can rarely be the first presentation of multiple myeloma. We here in report a case in which primary diagnosis of multiple myeloma was made on renal biopsy due to its characteristic histomorphology. The diagnosis was later on supported by presence of neoplastic plasma cells in the aspirate and biopsy of bone marrow.

Abstract
Objective. To investigate the efficacy and safety of the treatment of the newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) patients with the therapy of subcutaneous (subQ) administration of bortezomib and dexamethasone plus thalidomide (VTD) regimen. Methods. A total of 60 newly diagnosed MM patients were analyzed. 30 patients received improved VTD regimen (improved VTD group) with the subQ injection of bortezomib and the other 30 patients received conventional VTD regimen (VTD group).The efficacy and safety of two groups were analyzed retrospectively. Results. The overall remission (OR) after eight cycles of treatment was 73.3% in the VTD group and 76.7% in the improved VTD group (P > 0.05). No significant differences in time to 1-year estimate of overall survival (72% versus 75%, P = 0.848) and progression-free survival (median 22 months versus 25 months; P = 0.725) between two groups. The main toxicities related to therapy were leukopenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, asthenia, fatigue, and renal and urinary disorders. Grade 3 and higher adverse events were significantly less common in the improved VTD group (50%) than VTD group (80%, P = 0.015). Conclusions. The improved VTD regimen by changing bortezomib from intravenous administration to subcutaneous injection has noninferior efficacy to standard VTD regimen, with an improved safety profile and reduced adverse events.

Abstract
Cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (CyBorD) is a highly active three-drug induction regimen for untreated transplant-eligible multiple myeloma patients. Although CyBorD has been evaluated only in the phase 2 setting in a limited number of patients, its high efficacy and ease of administration have led to its widespread use. Given that clinical trial efficacy can overestimate real-life effectiveness, we reviewed our institutional experience with 109 newly diagnosed patients who were treated with CyBorD in a non-clinical trial setting. After a median of four cycles, overall response rate (ORR) and very good partial response rate or better (⩾VGPR) were 95 and 66%, respectively, comparable to phase 2 studies of CyBorD and other three/four-drug induction regimens. All patients subsequently underwent successful stem cell collection and upgraded responses to ORR 98% and ⩾VGPR 79% post transplant. At a median follow-up of 19.8 months after diagnosis, the 2-year OS probability was 95.3% (95%CI: 89-98). The presence of concurrent plasmacytoma at diagnosis was the only prognostic factor predicting poorer survival (HR=5.56; 95%CI: 0.92-33.74; P=0.03). CyBorD was well-tolerated, with no severe peripheral neuropathy and minimal hematologic toxicity. Therefore, CyBorD is a convenient, well-tolerated, highly effective induction regimen in preparation for autologous SCT in real-life clinical practice.

Abstract
Bortezomib is a first generation proteasome inhibitor that is the frontline chemotherapy for multiple myeloma with the chief dose-limiting side effect of painful peripheral neuropathy. The goal of this study was to define the behavioral phenotype in a preclinical model of bortezomib chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) and to test whether this is matched by changes in the physiological responses of spinal wide dynamic range neurons. Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with four injections of bortezomib at four doses, 0.05mg/kg, 0.10mg/kg, 0.15mg/kg, 0.20mg/kg, or equal volume of saline. All doses of bortezomib above 0.05mg/kg produced showed significant dose-dependent mechanical hyperalgesia that was fully established at 30 days after treatment and that recovered to baseline levels by day 69 after treatment. Thermal, cold, and motor testing were all unaffected by treatment with bortezomib. Spinal wide dynamic range (WDR) neurons in rats with confirmed bortzomib-related CIPN showed an increase in number of evoked discharges to mechanical stimuli and exaggerated after-discharges in rats with bortezomib CIPN.

Abstract
Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) is a well-established treatment for malignancies such as multiple myeloma (MM) and lymphomas. Various changes in the field over the past decade, including the frequent use of tandem aHSCT in MM, the advent of novel therapies for the treatment of MM and lymphoma, and the addition of new stem cell mobilization techniques, have led to the need to reassess current stem cell mobilization strategies. Mobilization failures with traditional strategies are common and result in delays in treatment and increased cost and resource utilization. Recently, plerixafor-containing strategies have been shown to significantly reduce mobilization failure rates, but the ideal method to maximize stem cell yields and minimize costs associated with collection has not yet been determined. A panel of experts convened to discuss the currently available data on autologous hematopoietic stem cell mobilization and transplantation and to devise guidelines to optimize mobilization strategies. Herein is a summary of their discussion and consensus.

Abstract
Management of multiple myeloma (MM) has been drastically changed in the last 10 years thanks to the introduction of novel agents, which, combined with the backbone of classical chemotherapy, have led to a significant improvement in disease control. Bortezomib is the first reversible proteasome inhibitor approved for the treatment of MM, with wide synergism in vitro and in vivo with a plethora of drugs active for MM. In patients eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), the achievement of complete response or very good partial response before ASCT is associated with prolonged progression-free and overall survival. Thus, the goal of induction regimens should include, at least for younger patients, a continued improvement of the quality and depth of the achieved response. This article is focused on reviewing the major efforts in frontline therapy for MM, including bortezomib-containing induction regimens in patients either eligible or ineligible for ASCT.

A comparison of bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (Vel-CD) chemotherapy without and with thalidomide (Vel-CTD) for the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Ann Hematol 2012; 91:1023-30. [PMID: 22314843 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-012-1420-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2011] [Accepted: 01/25/2012] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
We compared the clinical responses and toxicities between bortezomib-based salvage chemotherapy combined with cyclophosphamide, thalidomide, and dexamethasone(Vel-CTD) and without thalidomide (Vel-CD) in patients with relapsed or refractory MM. Eighty-six patients received at least two cycles of treatment with Vel-CTD (bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 i.v. on days 1, 4, 8, and 11; cyclophosphamide 150 mg/m2 orally on days 1–4; thalidomide 50–100 mg/day orally every day; and dexamethasone 20 mg/m2 i.v. on days 1, 4, 8, and 11 every 3 weeks), and 67 patients were given at least two cycles of Vel-CD, which is the same regimen as Vel-CTD except without thalidomide. The overall response rates of the Vel-CD and Vel-CTD groups were 88% and 90% (p>0.05), respectively. There was no difference in the progression free survival (p = 0.69) and overall survival rates(p = 0.49) between the two groups. Grade 3 or more adverse hematologic events occurred in the same proportion of patients in both groups. In terms of non-hematologic toxicities, the Vel-CTD group showed a higher proportion of autonomic neuropathy, motor neuropathy, and sensory neuropathy compared to the Vel-CD group (each, p<0.05). Only three patients in the Vel-CTD group showed thrombotic events despite aspirin prophylaxis. The Vel-CD regimen inpatients with relapsed or refractory MM is an effective and more tolerable salvage therapy compared to Vel-CTD in terms of its comparable response rate and less severe of non-hematologic toxicities.

Horsted F, West J, Grainge MJ. Risk of venous thromboembolism in patients with cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis. PLoS Med 2012; 9:e1001275. [PMID: 22859911 PMCID: PMC3409130 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pmed.1001275] [Citation(s) in RCA: 382] [Impact Index Per Article: 31.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2012] [Accepted: 06/12/2012] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND People with cancer are known to be at increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), and this risk is believed to vary according to cancer type, stage of disease, and treatment modality. Our purpose was to summarise the existing literature to determine precisely and accurately the absolute risk of VTE in cancer patients, stratified by malignancy site and background risk of VTE. METHODS AND FINDINGS We searched the Medline and Embase databases from 1 January 1966 to 14 July 2011 to identify cohort studies comprising people diagnosed with one of eight specified cancer types or where participants were judged to be representative of all people with cancer. For each included study, the number of patients who developed clinically apparent VTE, and the total person-years of follow-up were extracted. Incidence rates of VTE were pooled across studies using the generic inverse variance method. In total, data from 38 individual studies were included. Among average-risk patients, the overall risk of VTE was estimated to be 13 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI, 7 to 23), with the highest risk among patients with cancers of the pancreas, brain, and lung. Among patients judged to be at high risk (due to metastatic disease or receipt of high-risk treatments), the risk of VTE was 68 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI, 48 to 96), with the highest risk among patients with brain cancer (200 per 1,000 person-years; 95% CI, 162 to 247). Our results need to be considered in light of high levels of heterogeneity, which exist due to differences in study population, outcome definition, and average duration of follow-up between studies. CONCLUSIONS VTE occurs in greater than 1% of cancer patients each year, but this varies widely by cancer type and time since diagnosis. The absolute VTE risks obtained from this review can aid in clinical decision-making about which people with cancer should receive anticoagulant prophylaxis and at what times.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of intranasal corticosteroids on the nasal epithelium mucosa is an important parameter of treatment safety. This study was designed to examine whether treatment with topical corticosteroids in patients with allergic rhinitis causes atrophic nasal mucosal changes, when compared with systemic corticosteroids, in rats. METHODS Male Wistar rats were treated daily during 7 weeks with topical administration with 10 microliters of normal saline (control group), 10 microliters of mometasone furoate group, 10 microliters of triamcinolone acetonide (T group), and 8 mg/kg of daily subcutaneous injections of methylprednisolone sodium succinate (MP group). Body weight was evaluated weekly. At the end of the treatment, rats were killed by decapitation to collect blood for determination of corticosterone levels and nasal cavities were prepared for histological descriptive analyses. RESULTS Treatment with T and MP decreased body weight. Plasma corticosterone concentration was significantly reduced by MP treatment and presented a clear tendency to decrease after T treatment. Histological changes observed in group T included ripples, cell vacuolization, increase in the number of nuclei, and decrease in the number of cilia in the epithelial cells. CONCLUSION Growth and corticosterone concentration were impaired by T and MP at the same proportion, suggesting a role of this hormone in body gain. With the exception of T, intranasal or systemic treatment with the corticosteroids evaluated in this study did not affect nasal mucosa.

Inhibition of ubiquitin proteasome function suppresses proliferation of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells. NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2011; 384:517-23.

Abstract
Inhibition of proteasome function has been shown to suppress several types of cells proliferation; this study investigates whether this also occurs in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and its potential mechanisms. Serotonin induced 4.27-fold increase in DNA synthesis in PASMCs, and this effect was dose-dependently blocked by prior incubation of cells with MG132, a specific proteasome inhibitor. Inhibition of proteasome function did not modulate serotonin-triggered pro-proliferation signaling pathways, such as extracellular signal-regulated mitogen-activated protein kinase (ERK1/2 MAPK) and Ras homolog gene family member A (RhoA). Further study indicated that treatment of PASMCs with serotonin reduced p21(WAF1) protein level but not its transcription; this was reversed by inhibiting ERK1/2 MAPK or RhoA cascade equally. In addition, MG132 increased the protein level of p21(WAF1) in a dose-dependent manner in the presence of serotonin, 10 μM MG132 led to a 4.2-fold increase in p21(WAF1) protein level, and this effect was not mediated by increasing p21(WAF1) mRNA level. More importantly, cell lacking p21(WAF1) by siRNA transfection abolished the inhibitive effect of MG132 on cells proliferation. Our study suggests that accumulation of p21(WAF1) protein level caused by proteasome inhibition particularly mediated its inhibitive effect on PASMCs proliferation, and inhibition of proteasome function might have potential value in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension.

Abstract
The role of high-dose therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) continues to evolve in the novel agent era. The choice of induction therapy has moved from conventional chemotherapy to newer regimens incorporating the immunomodulatory derivatives thalidomide or lenalidomide and the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib. These drugs combine well with traditional therapies and with one another to form various doublet, triplet, and quadruplet regimens. Up-front use of these induction treatments, in particular 3-drug combinations, has affected unprecedented rates of complete response that rival those previously seen with conventional chemotherapy and subsequent ASCT. Autotransplantation applied after novel-agent-based induction regimens provides further improvement in the depth of response, a gain that translates into extended progression-free survival and, potentially, overall survival. High activity shown by immunomodulatory derivatives and bortezomib before ASCT has recently led to their use as consolidation and maintenance therapies after autotransplantation. Novel agents and ASCT are complementary treatment strategies for MM. This article reviews the current literature and provides important perspectives and guidance on the major issues surrounding the optimal current management of younger, transplantation-eligible MM patients.

Dexamethasone-induced oxidative stress enhances myeloma cell radiosensitization while sparing normal bone marrow hematopoiesis. Neoplasia 2011; 12:980-92.

Abstract
Dexamethasone (Dex) and radiation therapy are established modalities in multiple myeloma. In this study, we propose a novel combination of Dex plus radiation that shows superior clonogenic cell killing and apoptosis of myeloma cells and selectively eliminates myeloma cells when cocultured with bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). Dex was found to inhibit the release of interleukin-6 from irradiated BMSCs, which is an established myeloma cell proproliferative cytokine. In 5TGM1 model, the combination of Dex with skeletal targeted radiotherapy (153-Sm-EDTMP) prolonged median survival time and inhibited radiation-induced myelosuppression. A two-cycle treatment of Dex plus 153-Sm-EDTMP was well tolerated and further improved median survival time. Mechanistically, Dex increased superoxide and hydrogen peroxide production and augmented radiation-induced oxidative stress and cell death of myeloma cells. In contrast, Dex inhibited radiation-induced increase in pro-oxidant levels and enhanced the clonogenic survival in normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Treatment with either N-acetylcysteine or the combination of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated copper, zinc-superoxide dismutase, and PEG-catalase significantly protected myeloma cells from Dex-induced clonogenic death. Overall, these results demonstrate that Dex in combination with radiotherapy enhances the killing of myeloma cells while protecting normal bone marrow hematopoiesis through a mechanism that involves selective increases in oxidative stress.
