Abstract
Background Multiple myeloma remains an incurable disease, with the majority of patients relapsing after autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). After relapse, second transplant remains one of the therapeutic options, along with novel agents. Methods We reviewed the data of our patients who underwent ASCT for myeloma (N = 202) over the last two decades (2004-2019). Of these, 12 patients underwent a second transplant. Results Out of 12 patients, nine underwent second autologous stem cell transplant, whereas three received an allogeneic stem cell transplantation (Allo-SCT). Median progression-free survival (PFS) after the first ASCT was 32 months (5-84 months). Median interval between both the transplants was 35 months (4-159 months). Median age of our cohort which underwent second transplant was 56 years. Overall response rate (ORR) post-second transplant on day +100 was 83.3%, without any transplant-related mortality (TRM). With the use of preemptive plerixafor, none of our patients required a second day for stem cell harvest. Median CD34 dose of stem cells infused was 4.11 × 106/kg. Similar to the first ASCT, the median time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment was 11 and 12 days, respectively. At a median follow-up of 41 months, estimated 3-year PFS and overall survival (OS) was 37% ± 15% and 63% ± 15%, respectively. Conclusion ">Among all relapsed myeloma patients who were transplant eligible, 11% underwent a second transplant. Second transplant is well tolerated with similar time to engraftment after first ASCT. Hence, we believe that second transplant is a feasible, cost-effective option in a resource-limited setting, which should be more widely utilized.

Outcomes After Salvage Autologous Hematopoietic Cell Transplant for Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma: A Single-Institution Experience. CLINICAL LYMPHOMA, MYELOMA & LEUKEMIA 2023; 23:e182-e189. [PMID: 36581554 DOI: 10.1016/j.clml.2022.12.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2022] [Revised: 11/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of salvage autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (sAHCT2) for patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) in the era of modern therapeutics is unclear. As prospective data is limited, we conducted a retrospective analysis to determine the outcomes of sAHCT2. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a single-institution, retrospective analysis of patients who received sAHCT2 at The Ohio State University from 2000 to 2018. Patients who received a second transplant as part of a planned tandem or autologous-allogeneic transplant were excluded. RESULTS Fifty-seven patients were treated with sAHCT2. Patients had a median of 2 lines of therapy after AHCT1 prior to their sAHCT2; 70% had prior immunomodulatory imide drugs, 82% had prior proteasome inhibitor, and 20% had prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies as part of re-induction therapy. Forty-two percent of patients attained ≥VGPR prior to sAHCT2. Seventy-four were treated with melphalan 200 mg/m2 as conditioning regimen before infusion of a median of 3.8 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg. Fifty-eight percent patients had maintenance therapy and 81% patients attained CR/VGPR as the best response after sAHCT2. The median PFS and OS after sAHCT2 were 1.6 and 3.6 years, respectively. On multivariable analysis, high-risk cytogenetics, not having attained CR/VGPR, and having more than 2 lines of therapy post-AHCT1 were associated with inferior PFS. Melphalan 140 mg/m2 compared to melphalan 200 mg/m2 and no maintenance therapy compared to maintenance therapy were not associated with inferior PFS. There was no transplant-related mortality in this patient cohort. CONCLUSIONS For MM patients deriving durable remission after their AHCT1, sAHCT2 was safe and resulted in deep and durable remissions.

Abstract
Autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (auto-HCT) may be performed in multiple myeloma (MM) patients relapsing after a previous auto-HCT. For those without an adequate dose of stored stem cells, remobilization is necessary. This retrospective study included patients who, following disease relapse after the first auto-HCT(s), underwent stem cell remobilization and auto-HCT performed using these cells. There were 305 patients, 68% male, median age at salvage auto-HCT was 59 years. The median time to relapse after the first-line penultimate auto-HCT(s) was 30.6 months, the median follow-up after salvage auto-HCT 31 months. The 2- and 4-year non-relapse mortality (NRM) after the salvage auto-HCT was 5 and 9%, the relapse incidence 56 and 76%, respectively. Overall survival (OS) after 2 and 4 years was 76 and 52%, progression-free survival (PFS) 39 and 15%. In multivariable analysis an increasing interval between the penultimate auto-HCT and relapse was associated with better OS and PFS, later calendar year of salvage auto-HCT with better OS. In conclusion, salvage auto-HCT performed with cells remobilized after a previous auto-HCT was associated with acceptable NRM. The leading cause of failure was disease progression of MM, which correlated with a shorter interval from the penultimate auto-HCT to the first relapse.

Abstract
Salvage autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) constitutes a therapeutic option for a group of well-selected patients with relapsed multiple myeloma (MM). However, if an insufficient number of stem cells were harvested and stored before the first auto-HSCT, stem cells need to be remobilized. Patients diagnosed with MM who following relapse after auto-HSCT, had remobilization and afterward, auto-HSCT with remobilized cells were included in this retrospective analysis. Thirty-three patients, 61% males, the median age 61 years, were included. With a median follow-up of 1.8 years, 2-year progression-free survival was 56.2%, non-relapse mortality 4.8%. The 2-year cumulative incidence of t-MDS was 4.9%. Factors important for the outcome were: the quality of response, previous radiotherapy, the time between the first and salvage auto-HSCT. To conclude, salvage auto-HSCT performed with cells procured after the previous auto-HSCT can be efficacious in relapsed MM, especially if a sufficiently long response had been obtained to the first auto-HSCT(s).

Abstract
Over the last two decades, the utilization of various novel therapies in the upfront or salvage settings has continued to improve survival outcomes for patients with Multiple Myeloma (MM). Thus, the conventional role for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in MM either in the form of an autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) or an allogeneic stem cell transplant (Allo-SCT) warrants re-evaluation, given the aforementioned clinical advances. Here, we present a consensus statement of our multidisciplinary group of over 30 Mayo Clinic physicians with a special interest in the care of patients with MM and provide evidence-based recommendations on the use of HSCT in MM. We specifically address topics that include the role and timing of an ASCT for MM in the era of novel agents, eligibility for an ASCT, post-ASCT consolidation, and maintenance options, and finally the utility of an upfront tandem ASCT, salvage second ASCT, and an allo-SCT in MM.

Abstract
To evaluate the outcomes of salvage third autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma. We analyzed 570 patients who had undergone a third ASCT between 1997 and 2010 (European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation data), of whom 482 patients underwent tandem ASCT and a third ASCT at first relapse (AARA group) and 88 patients underwent an upfront ASCT with second and third transplantations after subsequent relapses (ARARA group). With a median follow-up after salvage third ASCT of 61 months in the AARA group and 48 months in the ARARA group, the day +100 nonrelapse mortality in the 2 groups was 4% and 7%, the incidence of second primary malignancy was 6% and 7%, the median progression-free survival was 13 and 8 months, and median overall survival (OS) was 33 and 15 months. In the AARA group, according to the relapse-free interval (RFI) from the second ASCT, the median OS after the third ASCT was 17 months if the RFI was <18 months, 37 months if the RFI was between 18 and 36 months, and 64 months if the RFI was ≥36 months (P < .001). In the ARARA group, the median OS after the third ASCT was 7 months if the RFI was <6 months, 13 months if the RFI was between 6 and 18 months, and 27 months if the RFI was ≥18 months (P < .001). In a multivariate analysis of the AARA group, the favorable prognostic factor was an RFI after second ASCT of ≥18 months. Progressive disease and a Karnofsky Performance Status score of <70 at third ASCT were unfavorable factors. A salvage third ASCT is of value for patients with relapsed myeloma, particularly for those with a long duration of response and chemosensitive disease at the time of transplantation.

Significance of Salvage Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation for Relapsed Multiple Myeloma: A Nationwide Retrospective Study in Japan. Acta Haematol 2018; 139:35-44.

Abstract
Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has been employed for patients with relapsed multiple myeloma (MM) after up-front ASCT. The present retrospective study aimed to examine the survival benefit from salvage ASCT. Among 446 patients with relapsed MM after up-front single ASCT, 70 patients received salvage ASCT, the employment of which reduced the risk of mortality after relapse (p = 0.041). Using the parameters before initial ASCT, the advantage of salvage ASCT compared to standard therapy was confirmed in the subgroup with an international staging system stage of I or II (p = 0.040), good performance status (PS; p = 0.043), or no/mild renal comorbidity (p = 0.029). The advantage of salvage ASCT was also confirmed in the subgroup excluding those with early relapse within 7 months after initial ASCT (p = 0.026). Among patients who received salvage ASCT, a favorable prognosis is apparent for those with a time to relapse after initial ASCT of longer than 24 months. The overall survival after salvage ASCT was favorable excluding patients with the following factors: early relapse, poor PS, moderate/severe renal comorbidity, and progressive disease (p < 0.001). In conclusion, our results reinforced the evidence for encouraging salvage ASCT for eligible patients.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a standard frontline therapy for multiple myeloma (MM). Therapeutic options for patients with relapsed MM after ASCT include novel agents in different combos, salvage ASCT (sASCT), and allogeneic transplant, with no unique standard of care. We retrospectively analyzed 66 MM patients who relapsed after up-front single or double ASCT(s) and received novel agent-based sASCT at five Italian centers. Median event-free survival from up-front ASCT(s) to first relapse (EFS1) was 44 months. Seventy-three percent of patients received sASCT at first disease progression. Re-induction regimens were bortezomib based in 87% of patients. Response to re-induction therapy included complete response (CR) 18%, ≥ very good partial response (VGPR) 48%, and overall response rate (ORR) 83%. Response to sASCT included CR 44%, ≥ VGPR 77%, and ORR 94%. With a median follow-up of 24 months after sASCT, 39 patients experienced disease progression. Median EFS from sASCT (EFS2) was 17 months. Median overall survival from ASCT (OS1) and sASCT (OS2) was 166 and 43 months, respectively. EFS2 and OS2 were significantly shorter in patients with EFS1 ≤ 24 months, in patients who did not receive sASCT at first disease progression and in patients with extramedullary disease (EMD). In multivariate analysis, EFS1 ≤ 24 months was associated with shorter EFS2 and OS2, EMD was associated with shorter EFS2, and < CR after sASCT was associated with shorter OS2. Novel agent-based sASCT is a safe and effective procedure for relapsed MM.

Abstract
In the current evolving landscape of myeloma therapies, no recommended salvage strategy exists for patients with relapsed multiple myeloma (MM) after initial successful autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and therapeutic options extend from conventional chemotherapy and novel agents to second autologous and allogeneic transplants. In this article, we summarize the documented evidence about the utilization of second ASCT in patients with relapsed MM after a primary auto-graft and discuss the correct timing for such a salvage approach, the individual characteristics of patients who will benefit more, as well as the therapeutic role of second ASCT in the modern era of forthcoming anti-myeloma treatments.

Abstract
Therapeutic strategies for multiple myeloma (MM) have changed dramatically over the past decade. Thus, the role of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) must be considered in the context of this evolution. In this evidence-based review, we have critically analyzed the data from the most recent clinical trials to better understand how to incorporate HCT and when HCT is indicated. We have provided our recommendations based on strength of evidence with the knowledge that ongoing clinical trials make this a dynamic field. Within this document, we discuss the decision to proceed with autologous HCT, factors to consider before proceeding to HCT, the role of tandem autologous HCT, post-HCT maintenance therapy, and the role of allogeneic HCT for patients with MM.

Abstract
Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) remains a standard of care for multiple myeloma patients who are eligible to receive high-dose therapy, recognizing that the optimal timing and integration of this approach is now under study in a number of randomized trials. Despite the improved response rates with induction therapy consisting of immunomodulatory drugs and/or proteasome inhibitors, as well as the increasing use of post-ASCT maintenance therapy, most myeloma patients relapse and die of their disease. Here we discuss the options for managing post-ASCT relapse, including the role of various salvage regimens in the setting of relapsed and refractory myeloma, salvage ASCT, and salvage allogeneic SCT.

Abstract
Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) remains an integral part of the treatment strategy for many myeloma patients. The role of allogeneic stem cell transplant continues to be defined. There is increasing evidence that posttransplant maintenance therapy can significantly improve outcomes. It is predicted that with more routine use of cytogenetic and gene expression profiling in the future, we will be better able to identify those subgroups of patients who are expected to benefit most from early versus late versus no ASCT and those who will benefit from allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Abstract
There is no standard therapy for multiple myeloma relapsing after an autotransplant. We compared the outcomes of a second autotransplant (N=137) with those of an allotransplant (N=152) after non-myeloablative or reduced-intensity conditioning (NST/RIC) in 289 subjects reported to the CIBMTR from 1995 to 2008. NST/RIC recipients were younger (median age 53 vs 56 years; P<0.001) and had a shorter time to progression after their first autotransplant. Non-relapse mortality at 1-year post transplant was higher in the NST/RIC cohort, 13% (95% confidence interval (CI), 8-19) vs 2% (95% CI, 1-5, P0.001). Three-year PFS and OS for the NST/RIC cohort were 6% (95% CI, 3-10%) and 20% (95% CI, 14-27%). Similar outcomes for the autotransplant cohort were 12% (95% CI, 7-19%, P=0.038) and 46% (95% CI, 37-55%, P=0.001). In multivariate analyses, risk of death was higher in NST/RIC recipients (hazard ratio (HR) 2.38 (95% CI, 1.79-3.16), P<0.001), those with Karnofsky performance score<90 (HR 1.96 (95% CI, 1.47-2.62), P<0.001) and transplant before 2004 (HR 1.77 (95% CI, 1.34-2.35) P0.001). In conclusion, NST/RIC was associated with higher TRM and lower survival than an autotransplant. As disease status was not available for most allotransplant recipients, it is not possible to determine which type of transplant is superior after autotransplant failure.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous haematopoetic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a standard frontline therapy for multiple myeloma (MM). Unfortunately, there are no randomized clinical studies examining the role of a second ASCT in patients who relapse after the initial autotransplant. Analysing all available retrospective studies, it seems that salvage ASCT can safely be performed in most patients with an overall treatment-related mortality rate <5%. Approximately 65% of patients will achieve an objective response and progression-free and overall survival will be around 12 months and 32 months, respectively. Retrospective data suggest that patients with a progression-free survival of ≥18 months after initial ASCT are most likely to benefit from a salvage autotransplant. However, patients with a <12-month duration of response after initial ASCT should not be considered for a second autograft in the relapsed setting because this group will probably only experience ASCT-related toxicity without any clinical benefit. Quality of response after initial ASCT and number of therapies preceding salvage ASCT may also have a predictive value. Importantly, these findings need to be verified by randomized clinical trials in order to firmly integrate salvage ASCT into a global therapeutic concept for myeloma patients including optimized induction, consolidation, and maintenance approaches.

Abstract
Autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT) as initial therapy of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) improves survival. However, data to support this approach for relapsed/progressive disease after initial AHCT (AHCT1) are limited. Using Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research data, we report the outcomes of 187 patients who underwent a second AHCT (AHCT2) for the treatment of relapsed/progressive MM. Planned tandem AHCT was excluded. Median age at AHCT2 was 59 years (range, 28 to 72), and median patient follow-up was 47 months (range, 3 to 97). Nonrelapse mortality after AHCT2 was 2% at 1 year and 4% at 3 years. Median interval from AHCT1 to relapse/progression was 18 months, and median interval between transplantations was 32 months. After AHCT2, the incidence of relapse/progression at 1 and 3 years was 51% and 82%, respectively. At 3 years after AHCT2, progression-free survival was 13%, and overall survival was 46%. In multivariate analyses, those relapsing ≥36 months after AHCT1 had superior progression-free (P = .045) and overall survival (P = .019). Patients who underwent AHCT2 after 2004 had superior survival (P = .026). AHCT2 is safe and feasible for disease progression after AHCT1. In this retrospective study, individuals relapsing ≥36 months from AHCT1 derived greater benefit from AHCT2 compared with those with a shorter disease-free interval. Storage of an adequate graft before AHCT1 will ensure that the option of a second autologous transplantation is retained for patients with relapsed/progressive MM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Therapeutic options for patients with recurrent multiple myeloma after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) include novel agents, conventional chemotherapy, or salvage ASCT with no standard of care. METHODS A total of 200 patients with multiple myeloma who developed disease recurrence after treatment with upfront ASCT and received an autologous retransplantation as salvage therapy at the study center over a period of 15 years were retrospectively reviewed. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the role of salvage ASCT in terms of efficacy, particularly taking into account the impact of novel agents. RESULTS The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival after salvage ASCT were 15.2 months and 42.3 months, respectively. The overall response rate (a partial response or greater) was 80.4% at day 100, excluding 6 patients who died before assessment. Factors associated with improved PFS and overall survival after salvage ASCT included an initial PFS of > 18 months after upfront ASCT, bortezomib-containing or lenalidomide-containing therapies for reinduction, response to reinduction, and an International Staging System stage of I before salvage ASCT. CONCLUSIONS Salvage ASCT is capable of achieving sustained disease control in patients with multiple myeloma. The use of lenalidomide and bortezomib for reinduction has improved the results after salvage ASCT, suggesting that novel agents and salvage ASCT are complementary rather than alternative treatment approaches.

Abstract
In the last decade, the introduction of novel agents including the immunomodulatory drugs thalidomide and lenalidomide, and the first-in-class proteasome inhibitor bortezomib, has dramatically improved clinical outcome in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM) compared to conventional chemotherapy alone. Although combination treatment approaches with traditional cytotoxic agents and novel agents have led to response rates as high as 85% in patients with relapsed/refractory disease, not all patients will respond to established novel agents, and even those who do respond will ultimately relapse or become refractory to currently available regimens. There is no generally accepted standard treatment for patients with relapsed/refractory disease; however, both disease-related (eg, quality and duration of response to previous therapies and the aggressiveness of the relapse) and patient-related (eg, preexisting toxicities, comorbid conditions, quality of life, age, and performance status) factors should be considered when selecting the best treatment option. This article will review up-to-date approaches for managing patients with relapsed/refractory MM, including the efficacy and safety of established novel agents, the use of adjunctive/supportive care, and strategies for tailored treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-dose chemotherapy with autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (auto-HCT) has been shown to improve survival in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. However, the role of salvage auto-HCT for relapsed patients, particularly in the era of novel therapeutics, is not well defined. METHODS The authors performed a retrospective analysis of all 44 myeloma patients (24 men, 20 women) who received a second auto-HCT as salvage between January 3, 1992 and November 4, 2008 at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. RESULTS Median interval between the first and salvage auto-HCT was 30 months (range, 2-78 months). Median age at salvage HCT was 54 years (range, 38-73 years), and median number of salvage treatment regimens was 2 (range, 0-5). Eleven (25%) patients had high-risk chromosomal abnormalities on conventional cytogenetic studies between diagnosis and salvage auto-HCT. Ten patients (23%) experienced grade 3 or higher nonhematologic toxicity after the salvage auto-HCT. One patient died within 100 days, for a treatment-related mortality of 2%. Best responses after salvage chemotherapy + salvage auto-HCT were as follows: complete response (CR) + near CR, 11%; partial response, 79%; overall response rate, 90%. Eighteen (41%) patients received post auto-HCT maintenance therapy. Median follow-up from salvage HCT was 41 months. Kaplan-Meier estimates of median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) from time of salvage auto-HCT were 12.3 and 31.7 months, respectively. Median OS from the time of diagnosis was 75 months. In a fitted Bayesian multivariate model, shorter time to progression after first auto-HCT, greater number of prior therapies, African American race, and immunoglobulin G subtype were significantly associated with worse OS. CONCLUSIONS In selected myeloma patients, a second auto-HCT for salvage therapy is well tolerated, with acceptable toxicity. The overall response rate and PFS are comparable to other salvage regimens.

Abstract
The role of a second autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) as salvage therapy is unclear, particularly with the availability of novel agents to treat progressive multiple myeloma (MM). We retrospectively reviewed all MM patients who received a second ASCT as salvage therapy at our center from March 1992 to December 2009. Eighty-one MM patients received a second ASCT for relapsed MM. The median time to relapse after first transplant was 39 months (9.83-100). All patients received reinduction therapy before the second ASCT. The high-dose regimen given before the second ASCT consisted of melphalan (MEL) alone in the majority. Complete response, very good partial response, and partial response were seen in 7.7%, 39.7%, and 50%, respectively, at day 100 post-ASCT; the median time to relapse after the second ASCT was 19 months. Early deaths occurred in 2.6%. Median progression-free survival (PFS) based on the time to myeloma relapse after first ASCT was 9.83 months (relapse ≤ 24 months) and 17.3 months (relapse ≥ 24 months) (P < .05). Median overall survival (OS) was 28.47 months (relapse ≤ 24 months) and 71.3 months (relapse >24 months) (P = .006). Second ASCT is a feasible and safe option for salvage therapy in MM. The best outcome was observed in patients whose time to progression was >24 months after first ASCT, as these patients had a subsequent PFS lasting over 1 year and an OS of almost 6 years.

Abstract
Treatment options for patients with relapsed myeloma have benefited from the development of new targeted agents. The use of bortezomib, thalidomide, and lenalidomide have dramatically changed outcomes for patients with relapsed myeloma. New agents are also in development, on the basis of preclinical rationale, as well as combinations of conventional and novel agents. Together each of these treatment approaches are being tested in phase I, II, and III clinical trials, with the goal of prolonged duration of remission and, ultimately, improved overall survival.

Abstract
Autologous stem cell transplant as primary (first ASCT) therapy in multiple myeloma (MM) is standard practice. The role of a second ASCT as management of relapsed disease remains uncertain. We conducted a retrospective case-matched control analysis on patients (n = 106) who underwent a second ASCT compared with conventional chemotherapy (CCT) as for relapsed MM. The median age was 53 years (range: 26-75) and median follow-up 48 months (range: 8, 136). The cumulative incidence of 1 and 5 years nonrelapse mortality (NRM) was 7% (95% confidence interval [CI] 3%-13%) and 12% (95% CI 7%-19%), with a second ASCT inducing a greater partial remission (PR) rate of 63%. The 4-year overall survival (OS) rate was 33% (95% CI 24%-45%). Factors associated with improved OS and progression-free survival (PFS) included younger age (<55 years), β(2)MG <2.5 mg/L at diagnosis, a remission duration of >9 months from first ASCT, and a greater PR in response to their first ASCT. In a matched-cohort analysis with patients receiving conventional chemotherapy (CCT), the same factors were associated with improved OS, with the exception of a longer remission duration (>18 months) from first ASCT. Second ASCT in relapsed MM is associated with superior OS and PFS compared with CCT, offering a potential consolidative option for selected patients.

Abstract
A 64 year-old man with a history of multiple myeloma presents with new back pain. He has a history of International Staging System stage 1, IgG kappa multiple myeloma with normal cytogenetics which was diagnosed 4 years ago when he presented with a pathological fracture of the left humerus. He was initially managed with mechanical stabilization and 4 cycles of bortezomib-dexamethasone, as well as 2 years of bisphosphanates. Following induction therapy he achieved a very good partial response (VGPR). He subsequently received high-dose melphalan and autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT) and achieved a complete reponse (CR) post-transplant. He did not receive maintenance therapy and had been lost-to follow-up for about a year. He now presents 5 years after initial diagnosis with back pain and is noted to have a new lytic lesion with a compression fracture at T8. A serum protein electrophoresis demonstrates reappearance of his original monoclonal protein. After appropriate stabilization he comes to you to discuss additional treatment options.
