Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable bone marrow cancer characterized by the development of osteolytic lesions due to the myeloma-induced increase in osteoclastogenesis and decrease in osteoblastic activity. The standard treatment of MM often involves proteasome inhibitors (PIs), which can also have a beneficial off-target bone anabolic effect. However, long-term treatment with PIs is unadvised due to their high side-effect burden and inconvenient route of administration. Ixazomib is a new-generation, oral PI that is generally well tolerated; however, its bone effect remains unknown. Here, we describe the 3-month results of a single-center phase II clinical trial investigating the effect of ixazomib treatment on bone formation and bone microstructure. Thirty patients with MM in stable disease not receiving antimyeloma treatment for ≥3 months and presenting ≥2 osteolytic lesions received monthly ixazomib treatment cycles. Serum and plasma samples were collected at baseline and monthly thereafter. Sodium 18 F-Fluoride positron emission tomography (NaF-PET) whole-body scans and trephine iliac crest bone biopsies were collected before and after three treatment cycles. The serum levels of bone remodeling biomarkers suggested an early ixazomib-induced decrease in bone resorption. NaF-PET scans indicated unchanged bone formation ratios; however, histological analyses of bone biopsies revealed a significant increase in bone volume per total volume after treatment. Further analyses of bone biopsies showed unchanged osteoclast number and COLL1A1High -expressing osteoblasts on bone surfaces. Next, we analyzed the superficial bone structural units (BSUs), which represent each recent microscopic bone remodeling event. Osteopontin staining revealed that following treatment, significantly more BSUs were enlarged (>200,000 μm2 ), and the distribution frequency of their shape was significantly different from baseline. Overall, our data suggest that ixazomib induces overflow remodeling-based bone formation by decreasing the level of bone resorption and promoting longer bone formation events, making it a potentially valuable candidate for future maintenance treatment. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Myeloma bone disease (MBD), caused by the inhibition of osteoblast activity and the activation of osteoclast in the bone marrow environment, is the most frequent and life-threatening complication in multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Bortezomib (Bzb) was shown to promote MM-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MM-MSCs) differentiation to osteoblast in vitro and in animal models, promoting the bone formation and regeneration, may be mediated via β-catenin/T-cell factor (TCF) pathway. Further defining molecular mechanism of Bzb-enhanced bone formation in MM will be beneficial for the treatment of myeloma patients. The present study has identified for the first time four and a half LIM domains protein 2 (FHL2), a tissue-specific coregulator that interacts with many osteogenic marker molecules, as a therapeutic target to ameliorate MM bone disease. First, increased messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein levels of FHL2, and the mRNA level of main osteoblast markers (including Runx2, ALP, and Col1A1), were found in MM-patients-derived MSCs after Bzb treatment. FHL2 KD with short hairpin RNA (shRNA) reduced the expression of osteoblast marker genes and blocked the osteogenic differentiation of MM-MSCs regardless of the presence or absence of Bzb, implying that FHL2 is an important activator of the osteogenic differentiation of human MSCs under a proteasome inhibition condition. Molecular analysis showed that the enhanced expression of FHL2 was associated with the Bzb-induced upregulation of p53. No significant change at protein level of total β-catenin was observed with or without Bzb treatment. However, it was mostly enriched to nuclei in MSCs after Bzb treatment. Moreover, β-catenin was restricted to the perinuclear region in FHL2 KD cells. These data provide evidence that FHL2 is essential for promoting β-catenin nuclear enrichment in MM-MSCs. In conclusion, FHL2 is critical for Bzb-induced osteoblast differentiation of MM-MSCs and promotes the osteogenesis, through p53 signaling and β-catenin activation. Targeting FHL2 in MM may provide a new therapeutic strategy for treating MBD.

Abstract
Simple Summary Myeloma cells interact with their ambient cells in the bone, such as bone marrow stromal cells, osteoclasts, and osteocytes, resulting in enhancement of osteoclastogenesis and inhibition of osteoblastogenesis while enhancing their growth and drug resistance. The activation of the TAK1–PIM2 signaling axis appears to be vital for this mutual interaction, posing it as an important therapeutic target to suppress tumor expansion and ameliorate bone destruction in multiple myeloma. Abstract Multiple myeloma (MM) has a propensity to develop preferentially in bone and form bone-destructive lesions. MM cells enhance osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption through activation of the RANKL–NF-κB signaling pathway while suppressing bone formation by inhibiting osteoblastogenesis from bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) by factors elaborated in the bone marrow and bone in MM, including the soluble Wnt inhibitors DKK-1 and sclerostin, activin A, and TGF-β, resulting in systemic bone destruction with loss of bone. Osteocytes have been drawn attention as multifunctional regulators in bone metabolism. MM cells induce apoptosis in osteocytes to trigger the production of factors, including RANKL, sclerostin, and DKK-1, to further exacerbate bone destruction. Bone lesions developed in MM, in turn, provide microenvironments suited for MM cell growth/survival, including niches to foster MM cells and their precursors. Thus, MM cells alter the microenvironments through bone destruction in the bone where they reside, which in turn potentiates tumor growth and survival, thereby generating a vicious loop between tumor progression and bone destruction. The serine/threonine kinases PIM2 and TAK1, an upstream mediator of PIM2, are overexpressed in bone marrow stromal cells and osteoclasts as well in MM cells in bone lesions. Upregulation of the TAK1–PIM2 pathway plays a critical role in tumor expansion and bone destruction, posing the TAK1–PIM2 pathway as a pivotal therapeutic target in MM.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a neoplastic clonal proliferation of plasma cells in the bone marrow microenvironment, characterized by overproduction of heavy- and light-chain monoclonal proteins (M-protein). These proteins are mainly found in the serum and/or urine. Reduction in normal gammaglobulins (immunoparesis) leads to an increased risk of infection. The primary site of origin is the bone marrow for nearly all patients affected by MM with disseminated marrow involvement in most cases. MM is known to involve bones and result in myeloma bone disease. Osteolytic lesions are seen in 80% of patients with MM which are complicated frequently by skeletal-related events (SRE) such as hypercalcemia, bone pain, pathological fractures, vertebral collapse, and spinal cord compression. These deteriorate the patient's quality of life and affect the overall survival of the patient. The underlying pathogenesis of myeloma bone disease involves uncoupling of the bone remodeling processes. Interaction of myeloma cells with the bone marrow microenvironment promotes the release of many biochemical markers including osteoclast activating factors and osteoblast inhibitory factors. Elevated levels of osteoclast activating factors such as RANK/RANKL/OPG, MIP-1-α., TNF-α, IL-3, IL-6, and IL-11 increase bone resorption by osteoclast stimulation, differentiation, and maturation, whereas osteoblast inhibitory factors such as the Wnt/DKK1 pathway, secreted frizzle related protein-2, and runt-related transcription factor 2 inhibit osteoblast differentiation and formation leading to decreased bone formation. These biochemical factors also help in development and utilization of appropriate anti-myeloma treatments in myeloma patients. This review article summarizes the pathophysiology and the recent developments of abnormal bone remodeling in MM, while reviewing various approved and potential treatments for myeloma bone disease.

Abstract
Objective Patients with hematological malignancies, particularly those with multiple myeloma, often suffer from pathological vertebral compression fractures (VCFs). Consequent and significant spinal pain and paralysis impair the activities of daily living and quality of life and delay subsequent chemotherapy. Balloon kyphoplasty (BKP), which is less invasive than conventional therapies, is a type of percutaneous vertebroplasty in which cement is injected into the broken vertebrae to stabilize the spinal column. The present study assessed the effect of BKP on hematological tumors. Methods We retrospectively analyzed five myeloma patients and one lymphoma patient who underwent BKP for pathological VCFs in our institution. Results The median age was 74 years old. The spinal operation level ranged from T2 to L4. BKP was performed at the diagnosis in two cases, after first-line chemotherapy in one case, and after subsequent chemotherapy in three cases. After approximately 1 month, the patients' average Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score rapidly improved from 3.2 to 1.3. The numeric rating scale score decreased from 8.8 to 2.0, and the Karnofsky Performance Status score increased from 35 to 75. No severe complications were observed. All patients became able to walk unassisted and underwent early subsequent chemotherapy. Conclusion BKP can be a safe and effective treatment option for pathological VCFs in patients with hematological malignancies and allows for rapid induction with subsequent chemotherapy.

Abstract
Simple Summary Carfilzomib with dexamethasone is an important therapeutic option for patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. We sought to evaluate the effect of this regimen on the bone-related outcomes, which are associated with both quality of life and survival. Among 25 patients, less than one third experienced a new skeletal-related event during treatment, even in the absence of any bone-targeted agent. Interestingly, there was a significant decrease in serum biomarkers of bone resorption, which was at least partially due to the sRANKL/OPG ratio reduction. Furthermore, Kd produced an increase in markers of bone formation. Importantly, these changes were independent of myeloma response to treatment. Therefore, the combination of carfilzomib and dexamethasone improves bone metabolism and bone health in patients with advanced multiple myeloma. Abstract Carfilzomib with dexamethasone (Kd) is a well-established regimen for the treatment of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). There is limited information for the effects of Kd on myeloma-related bone disease. This non-interventional study aimed to assess skeletal-related events (SREs) and bone metabolism in patients with RRMM receiving Kd, in the absence of any bone-targeted agent. Twenty-five patients were enrolled with a median of three prior lines of therapy; 72% of them had evidence of osteolytic bone disease at study entry. During Kd treatment, the rate of new SREs was 28%. Kd produced a clinically relevant (≥30%) decrease in C-telopeptide of collagen type-1 (p = 0.048) and of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-5b (p = 0.002) at 2 months. This reduction was at least partially due to the reduction in the osteoclast regulator RANKL/osteoprotegerin ratio, at 2 months (p = 0.026). Regarding bone formation, there was a clinically relevant increase in osteocalcin at 6 months (p = 0.03) and in procollagen type I N-propeptide at 8 months post-Kd initiation. Importantly, these bone metabolism changes were independent of myeloma response to treatment. In conclusion, Kd resulted in a low rate of SREs among RRMM patients, along with an early, sustained and clinically relevant decrease in bone resorption, which was accompanied by an increase in bone formation, independently of myeloma response and in the absence of any bone-targeted agent use.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma is a plasma cell malignancy that causes debilitating bone disease and fractures, in which TGFβ plays a central role. Current treatments do not repair existing damage and fractures remain a common occurrence. We developed a novel low tumor phase murine model mimicking the plateau phase in patients as we hypothesized this would be an ideal time to treat with a bone anabolic. Using in vivo μCT we show substantial and rapid bone lesion repair (and prevention) driven by SD-208 (TGFβ receptor I kinase inhibitor) and chemotherapy (bortezomib and lenalidomide) in mice with human U266-GFP-luc myeloma. We discovered that lesion repair occurred via an intramembranous fracture repair-like mechanism and that SD-208 enhanced collagen matrix maturation to significantly improve fracture resistance. Lesion healing was associated with VEGFA expression in woven bone, reduced osteocyte-derived PTHrP, increased osteoblasts, decreased osteoclasts, and lower serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP-5b). SD-208 also completely prevented bone lesion development in mice with aggressive JJN3 tumors, and was more effective than an anti-TGFβ neutralizing antibody (1D11). We also discovered that SD-208 promoted osteoblastic differentiation (and overcame the TGFβ-induced block in osteoblastogenesis) in myeloma patient bone marrow stromal cells in vitro, comparable to normal donors. The improved bone quality and fracture-resistance with SD-208 provides incentive for clinical translation to improve myeloma patient quality of life by reducing fracture risk and fatality. © 2019 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple myeloma is a bone marrow-based hematological malignancy accounting for approximately two per cent of cancers. First-line treatment for transplant-ineligible individuals consists of multiple drug combinations of bortezomib (V), lenalidomide (R), or thalidomide (T). However, access to these medicines is restricted in many countries worldwide. OBJECTIVES To assess and compare the effectiveness and safety of multiple drug combinations of V, R, and T for adults with newly diagnosed transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma and to inform an application for the inclusion of these medicines into the World Health Organization's (WHO) list of essential medicines. SEARCH METHODS We searched CENTRAL and MEDLINE, conference proceedings and study registries on 14 February 2019 for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) comparing multiple drug combinations of V, R and T for adults with newly diagnosed transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma. SELECTION CRITERIA We included RCTs comparing combination therapies of V, R, and T, plus melphalan and prednisone (MP) or dexamethasone (D) for first-line treatment of adults with transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma. We excluded trials including adults with relapsed or refractory disease, trials comparing drug therapies to other types of therapy and trials including second-generation novel agents. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors independently extracted data and assessed risk of bias of included trials. As effect measures we used hazard ratios (HRs) for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) and risk ratios (RRs) for adverse events. An HR or RR < 1 indicates an advantage for the intervention compared to the main comparator MP. Where available, we extracted quality of life (QoL) data (scores of standardised questionnaires). Results quoted are from network meta-analysis (NMA) unless stated. MAIN RESULTS We included 25 studies (148 references) comprising 11,403 participants and 21 treatment regimens. Treatments were differentiated between restricted treatment duration (treatment with a pre-specified amount of cycles) and continuous therapy (treatment administered until disease progression, the person becomes intolerant to the drug, or treatment given for a prolonged period). Continuous therapies are indicated with a "c". Risk of bias was generally high across studies due to the open-label study design. Overall survival (OS) Evidence suggests that treatment with RD (HR 0.63 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.40 to 0.99), median OS 55.2 months (35.2 to 87.0)); TMP (HR 0.75 (95% CI 0.58 to 0.97), median OS: 46.4 months (35.9 to 60.0)); and VRDc (HR 0.49 (95% CI 0.26 to 0.92), median OS 71.0 months (37.8 to 133.8)) probably increases survival compared to median reported OS of 34.8 months with MP (moderate certainty). Treatment with VMP may result in a large increase in OS, compared to MP (HR 0.70 (95% CI 0.45 to 1.07), median OS 49.7 months (32.5 to 77.3)), low certainty). Progression-free survival (PFS) Treatment withRD (HR 0.65 (95% CI0.44 to 0.96), median PFS: 24.9 months (16.9 to 36.8)); TMP (HR 0.63 (95% CI 0.50 to 0.78), median PFS:25.7 months (20.8 to 32.4)); VMP (HR 0.56 (95% CI 0.35 to 0.90), median PFS: 28.9 months (18.0 to 46.3)); and VRDc (HR 0.34 (95% CI 0.20 to 0.58), median PFS: 47.6 months (27.9 to 81.0)) may result in a large increase in PFS (low certainty) compared to MP (median reported PFS: 16.2 months). Adverse events The risk of polyneuropathies may be lower with RD compared to treatment with MP (RR 0.57 (95% CI 0.16 to 1.99), risk for RD: 0.5% (0.1 to 1.8), mean reported risk for MP: 0.9% (10 of 1074 patients affected), low certainty). However, the CIs are also compatible with no difference or an increase in neuropathies. Treatment with TMP (RR 4.44 (95% CI1.77 to 11.11), risk: 4.0% (1.6 to 10.0)) and VMP (RR 88.22 (95% CI 5.36 to 1451.11), risk: 79.4% (4.8 to 1306.0)) probably results in a large increase in polyneuropathies compared to MP (moderate certainty). No study reported the amount of participants with grade ≥ 3 polyneuropathies for treatment with VRDc. VMP probably increases the proportion of participants with serious adverse events (SAEs) compared to MP (RR 1.28 (95% CI 1.06 to 1.54), risk for VMP: 46.2% (38.3 to 55.6), mean risk for MP: 36.1% (177 of 490 patients affected), moderate certainty). RD, TMP, and VRDc were not connected to MP in the network and the risk of SAEs could not be compared. Treatment with RD (RR 4.18 (95% CI 2.13 to 8.20), NMA-risk: 38.5% (19.6 to 75.4)); and TMP (RR 4.10 (95% CI 2.40 to 7.01), risk: 37.7% (22.1 to 64.5)) results in a large increase of withdrawals from the trial due to adverse events (high certainty) compared to MP (mean reported risk: 9.2% (77 of 837 patients withdrew)). The risk is probably slightly increased with VMP (RR 1.06 (95% CI 0.63 to 1.81), risk: 9.75% (5.8 to 16.7), moderate certainty), while it is much increased with VRDc (RR 8.92 (95% CI 3.82 to 20.84), risk: 82.1% (35.1 to 191.7), high certainty) compared to MP. Quality of life QoL was reported in four studies for seven different treatment regimens (MP, MPc, RD, RMP, RMPc, TMP, TMPc) and was measured with four different tools. Assessment and reporting differed between studies and could not be meta-analysed. However, all studies reported an improvement of QoL after initiation of anti-myeloma treatment for all assessed treatment regimens. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Based on our four pre-selected comparisons of interest, continuous treatment with VRD had the largest survival benefit compared with MP, while RD and TMP also probably considerably increase survival. However, treatment combinations of V, R, and T also substantially increase the incidence of AEs, and lead to a higher risk of treatment discontinuation. Their effectiveness and safety profiles may best be analysed in further randomised head-to-head trials. Further trials should focus on consistent reporting of safety outcomes and should use a standardised instrument to evaluate QoL to ensure comparability of treatment-combinations.

Abstract
AIM To compare healthcare resource use and costs between newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients with and without skeletal-related events (SREs). METHODS Adults newly diagnosed with MM (1 January 2006 and 30 June 2017) with at least 12 months continuous health coverage prior to diagnosis were identified using the IBM MarketScan administrative claims. To control for baseline differences, NDMM patients with SREs were propensity score matched to NDMM patients without SREs. Outcomes included annual HRU and costs during follow-up along with number and type of SREs (SRE cohort only). Patients with SREs were stratified by number of SREs, and annual SRE-related costs were reported. Student's t test and Chi-squared test were used to compare outcomes. RESULTS Before matching, the 6648 patients in the SRE cohort had more comorbidities, were more likely to have MM treatment, and had higher pre-index healthcare costs than the 7458 patients in the non-SRE cohort. After matching, cohorts of 3432 patients were well balanced on baseline characteristics. Patients with SREs (vs. without SREs) had significantly higher inpatient, outpatient, and pharmacy HRU. Patients with SREs had significantly higher mean annual all-cause healthcare costs ($213,361 vs. $94,896, p < 0.001) with hospitalization being the leading driver of increased costs (38.7% of total). Among 6648 patients with SREs, the mean annual SRE-related healthcare costs were $39,603, $45,463, and $50,111 for patients with one, two, and three or more events, respectively. CONCLUSIONS NDMM patients with SREs have more than twice the all-cause healthcare costs than matched patients without SREs. Costs increase with the number of SRE events.

Abstract
Optimizing consolidation treatment in transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients in order to improve efficacy and bone-related outcomes is intriguing. We conducted an open-label, prospective study evaluating the efficacy and safety of bortezomib and lenalidomide (VR) consolidation after ASCT, in the absence of dexamethasone and bisphosphonates. Fifty-nine patients, who received bortezomib-based induction, were given 4 cycles of VR starting on day 100 post-ASCT. After ASCT, 58% of patients improved their response status, while following VR consolidation 39% further deepened their response; stringent complete response rates increased to 51% after VR from 24% post-ASCT. VR consolidation resulted in a significant reduction of soluble receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand/osteoprotegerin ratio and sclerostin circulating levels, which was more pronounced among patients achieving very good partial response or better. After a median follow-up of 62 months, no skeletal-related events (SREs) were observed, despite the lack of bisphosphonates administration. The median TTP after ASCT was 37 months, while median overall survival (OS) has not been reached yet; the probability of 4- and 5-year OS was 81% and 64%, respectively. In conclusion, VR consolidation is an effective, dexamethasone- and bisphosphonate-free approach, which offers long OS with improvements on bone metabolism and no SREs.

Abstract
Skeletal-related events (SREs) are common bone complications in multiple myeloma (MM). However, there are few real-world reports of their incidence. In this study, a database of oncology electronic health records was linked to administrative claims data. Patients identified were aged ≥18 years and newly diagnosed with MM, had ≥1 clinic visit within 1 month of diagnosis, and ≥1 year of follow-up after diagnosis. The study period was January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2016. 343 patients were included, 35% of whom had a baseline history of any SRE. During a median follow-up of 25.7 months, 34% of patients experienced SREs after diagnosis. Median time to SRE was 167 days. Among patients experiencing an SRE, 68% had an SRE within the first year. The incidence rate of SREs at 1 year following MM diagnosis for patients with baseline history was 103/100 person-years (PY) versus 16/100PY for patients without baseline history. SRE incidence rates within 3 months of initiating a line of therapy increased with subsequent lines (line 1: 81/100PY, line 2: 118/100PY, line 3: 150/100PY). Risk of SREs was similar across different anti-MM regimens, including proteasome inhibitor-based regimens. These results highlight the importance of continued surveillance and management of MM-associated bone disease.

Abstract
F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET/CT, MRI, and other novel imaging modalities in the management of disease in patients with plasma cell dyscrasias. We also review the state of the art in treatment of MM bone disease (MMBD) and the role of bisphosphonates and denosumab, a monoclonal antibody that binds and blocks the activity of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL), which was recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for MMBD.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown that Dickkopf-related protein (DKK1) and sclerostin decrease when a complete response (CR) is obtained after chemotherapy in myeloma multiple (MM). To study variations in DKK1, sclerostin and P1NP in patients treated for MM, between complete response (CR) and relapse, we carried out a prospective study ancillary to the IFM 2009 protocol (IFM). The aim of IFM was to compare progression-free survival between patients treated with chemotherapy with or without transplantation. We selected 69 patients who reached CR and relapsed. We assayed by ELISA: DKK1, sclerostin and P1NP at 3 end points T1: CR, T2: 4 months before relapse and T3: relapse. There was a significant increase in DKK1 and sclerostin between T1, T2 and T3. (DKK1 medians (IQR): T1 = 30 pmol/l (20.4-41.1), T2 = 37.4 pmol/l (29.8-49.4), p < 0.0001, T3 = 42 pmol/l (33.8-55.5), p < 0.0001 sclerostin medians (IQR): T1 = 0.57 (0.47-0.69), T2 = 0.62 ng/ml (0.53-0.79), p < 0.0001, T3 = n0.64 ng/ml (0.56-0.79), p = 0.005). No significant variation was detected in the levels of P1NP. No association was observed between the characteristics of the MM, or the treatment received and the variation between T1-T3 for DKK1, sclerostin or P1NP. A significant increase in DKK1 and sclerostin was observed four months before relapse.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second-most-common hematologic malignancy and the most frequent cancer to involve bone. MM bone disease (MMBD) has devastating consequences for patients, including dramatic bone loss, severe bone pain, and pathological fractures that markedly decrease the quality of life and impact survival of MM patients. MMBD results from excessive osteoclastic bone resorption and persistent suppressed osteoblastic bone formation, causing lytic lesions that do not heal, even when patients are in complete and prolonged remission. This review discusses the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate the uncoupling of bone remodeling in MM, the effects of MMBD on tumor growth, and potential therapeutic approaches that may prevent severe bone loss and repair damaged bone in MM patients.

Abstract
Purpose To update guideline recommendations on the role of bone-modifying agents in multiple myeloma. Methods An update panel conducted a targeted systematic literature review by searching PubMed and the Cochrane Library for randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, clinical practice guidelines, and observational studies. Results Thirty-five relevant studies were identified, and updated evidence supports the current recommendations. Recommendations For patients with active symptomatic multiple myeloma that requires systemic therapy with or without evidence of lytic destruction of bone or compression fracture of the spine from osteopenia on plain radiograph(s) or other imaging studies, intravenous administration of pamidronate 90 mg over at least 2 hours or zoledronic acid 4 mg over at least 15 minutes every 3 to 4 weeks is recommended. Denosumab has shown to be noninferior to zoledronic acid for the prevention of skeletal-related events and provides an alternative. Fewer adverse events related to renal toxicity have been noted with denosumab compared with zoledronic acid and may be preferred in this setting. The update panel recommends that clinicians consider reducing the initial pamidronate dose in patients with preexisting renal impairment. Zoledronic acid has not been studied in patients with severe renal impairment and is not recommended in this setting. The update panel suggests that bone-modifying treatment continue for up to 2 years. Less frequent dosing has been evaluated and should be considered in patients with responsive or stable disease. Continuous use is at the discretion of the treating physician and the risk of ongoing skeletal morbidity. Retreatment should be initiated at the time of disease relapse. The update panel discusses measures regarding osteonecrosis of the jaw. Additional information is available at www.asco.org/hematologic-malignancies-guidelines and www.asco.org/guidelineswiki .

Abstract
Bone disease is the hallmark of multiple myeloma (MM), a hematological malignancy characterized by osteolytic lesions due to a severe uncoupled and unbalanced bone remodeling with pronounced osteoblast suppression. Bone metastasis is also a frequent complication of solid tumors including advanced breast or prostate cancer. In the past years, the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway has been proved critical in regulating the balance between bone formation and bone resorption. Proteasome inhibitors (PIs) are a new class of drugs, currently used in the treatment of MM, that affect both tumor cells and bone microenvironment. Particularly, PIs stimulate osteoblast differentiation by human mesenchymal stromal cells and increase bone regeneration in mice. Interestingly, in vitro data indicate that PIs block MM-induced osteoblast and osteocyte cell death by targeting both apoptosis and autophagy. The preclinical data are supported by the following effects observed in MM patients treated with PIs: increase of bone alkaline phosphatase levels, normalization of the markers of bone turnover, and reduction of the skeletal-related events. Moreover, the histomorphometric data indicate that the treatment with bortezomib stimulates osteoblast formation and maintains osteocyte viability in MM patients. This review updates the evidence on the effects of PIs on bone remodeling and on cancer-induced bone disease while focusing on MM bone disease.

Abstract
Purpose This phase I study investigated bortezomib in solid tumors used as a daily subcutaneous regimen. Previous regimens showed only modest activity in solid tumors which was potentially related to sub-optimal tumor penetration. We aimed at exploring if daily low dose administration of bortezomib may allow a greater and tolerable pharmacokinetic exposure which might be required for antitumor activity in solid tumors. Patients and methods This 3 + 3 design, dose escalation, monocentric study aimed at defining the maximum tolerated dose of daily low dose schedule of bortezomib. Tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, antitumor activity, biomarkers for proteasome inhibition, pre- and post-treatment tumor biopsies were also evaluated. Results A total of eighteen patients were dosed in 3 bortezomib cohorts (0.5, 0.6 and 0.7 mg/m2), with 3, 11 and 4 patients respectively. Three patients experienced dose-limiting toxicities: Grade (G) 3 Sweet's syndrome (at 0.6 mg/m2), G3 asthenia and anorexia or ataxia (2 patients at 0.7 mg/m2). The most common study drug-related adverse events (all grades) were thrombocytopenia (72%), fatigue (56%), neuropathy (50%), anorexia (44%) and rash (39%). Dose 0.6 mg/m2 of bortezomib was considered as the recommended phase II dose. A significant tumor shrinkage (-36% according to WHO criteria) was observed in one patient with heavily pre-treated GIST, and 2 minor responses (-20%) were recorded in two patients with melanoma and mesothelioma. Conclusion This daily subcutaneous regimen of bortezomib showed a dose dependent plasma exposure, evidence of target inhibition and preliminary signs of clinical activity. However, cumulative neurological toxicity of this dose-dense daily regimen might preclude its further clinical development.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Bone disease is a defining characteristic of multiple myeloma (MM) and the major cause of morbidity. It manifests as lytic lesions or osteopenia and is often associated with severe pain, pathological fracture, spinal cord compression, vertebral collapse, and hypercalcemia. Here, we have reviewed recent data on understanding its biology and treatment. RECENT FINDINGS The imbalance between bone regeneration and bone resorption underlies the pathogenesis of osteolytic bone disease. Increased osteoclast proliferation and activity accompanied by inhibition of bone-forming osteoblasts leads to progressive bone loss and lytic lesions. Although tremendous progress has been made, MM remains an incurable disease. Novel agents targeting bone disease are under investigation with the goal of not only preventing bone loss and improving bone quality but also harnessing MM tumor growth. Current data illustrate that the interactions between MM cells and the tumor-bone microenvironment contribute to the bone disease and continued MM progression. A better understanding of this microenvironment is critical for novel therapeutic treatments of both MM and associated bone disease.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) bone disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in MM patients and persists even in patients in remission. This bone disease is caused by an uncoupling of bone remodeling, with increased osteoclast and decreased osteoblast activity and formation, culminating in lytic bone destruction. Bisphosphonates are the current standard of care but new therapies are needed. As the molecular mechanisms controlling MM bone disease are increasingly well understood, new therapeutic targets are extensively explored in the preclinical setting and initial clinical trials with novel compounds now show promising results. In this review, we will provide a comprehensive overview of the biology of MM bone disease, summarize its current clinical management and discuss preclinical and clinical data on next generation therapies.

Abstract
Osteolytic bone lesions are a hallmark of multiple myeloma (MM) bone disease. Bone destruction is associated with severely imbalanced bone remodeling, secondary to increased osteoclastogenesis and significant osteoblast suppression. Lytic lesions of the pelvis are relatively common in MM patients and are known to contribute to the increased morbidity because of the high risk of fracture, which frequently demands extensive surgical intervention. After observing unexpected radiological improvement in serial large pelvic CT assessment in a patient treated in a total therapy protocol, the radiographic changes of pelvic osteolytic lesions by PET/CT scanning in patients who received Total Therapy 4 (TT4) treatment for myeloma were retrospectively analyzed. Sixty-two (62) patients with lytic pelvic lesions >1 cm in diameter were identified at baseline PET/CT scanning. Follow-up CT studies showed that 27 of 62 patients (43%) with large baseline pelvic lesions achieved significant reaccumulation of radiodense mineralization at the lytic cortical site. The average size of lytic lesions in which remineralization occurred was 4 cm (range, 1.3 to 10 cm). This study clearly demonstrates that mineral deposition in large pelvic lesions occurs in a significant proportion of MM patients treated with TT4, potentially affecting patient outcomes, quality of life, and future treatment strategies. © 2017 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
This phase II study explored the effects of bortezomib consolidation versus observation on myeloma-related bone disease in patients who had a partial response or better after frontline high-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation. Patients were randomized to receive four 35-day cycles of bortezomib 1·6 mg/m2 intravenously on days 1, 8, 15 and 22, or an equivalent observation period, and followed up for disease status/survival. The modified intent-to-treat population included 104 patients (51 bortezomib, 53 observation). There were no meaningful differences in the primary endpoint of change from baseline to end of treatment in bone mineral density (BMD). End-of-treatment rates (bortezomib versus observation) of complete response/stringent complete response were 22% vs. 11% (P = 0·19), very good partial response or better of 80% vs. 68% (P = 0·17), and progressive disease of 8% vs. 23% (P = 0·06); median progression-free survival was 44·9 months vs. 21·8 months (P = 0·22). Adverse events observed ≥15% more frequently with bortezomib versus observation were diarrhoea (37% vs. 0), peripheral sensory neuropathy (20% vs. 4%), nausea (18% vs. 0) and vomiting (16% vs. 0). Compared with observation, bortezomib appeared to have little impact on bone metabolism/health, but was associated with trends for improved myeloma response and survival.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Multiple myeloma is characterized by the presence of osteolytic lesions that leads to devastating skeletal-related events in the majority of patients. Myeloma bone disease is attributed to increased osteoclastic and suppressed osteoblastic activity. Areas covered: Bisphosphonates remain the main treatment option, however they have limitations on their own. Understanding the pathogenesis of myeloma bone disease may provide a roadmap for new therapeutic approaches. The pathway of RANKRANKLOPG pathway has revealed denosumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting RANKL as a novel emerging therapy for myeloma-related bone disease. Furthermore, the Wnt signaling inhibitors dicckopf-1 and sclerostin that are implicated in the pathogenesis of bone destruction of myeloma are now targeted by novel monoclonal antibodies. Activin-A is a TGF-beta superfamily member which increases osteoclast activity and inhibits osteoblast function in myeloma; sotatercept and other molecules targeting activin-A have entered into clinical development. Several other molecules and pathways that play an important role in the pathogenesis of bone destruction in myeloma, such as periostin, adiponectin, Notch and BTK signaling are also targeted in an attempt to develop novel therapies for myeloma-related bone disease. Expert commentary: We summarize the current advances in the biology of myeloma bone disease and the potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Bone disease is a characteristic feature of multiple myeloma, a malignant plasma cell dyscrasia. In patients with multiple myeloma, the normal process of bone remodeling is dysregulated by aberrant bone marrow plasma cells, resulting in increased bone resorption, prevention of new bone formation, and consequent bone destruction. The ubiquitin-proteasome system, which is hyperactive in patients with multiple myeloma, controls the catabolism of several proteins that regulate bone remodeling. Clinical studies have reported that treatment with the first-in-class proteasome inhibitor bortezomib reduces bone resorption and increases bone formation and bone mineral density in patients with multiple myeloma. Since the introduction of bortezomib in 2003, several next-generation proteasome inhibitors have also been used clinically, including carfilzomib, oprozomib, ixazomib, and delanzomib. This review summarizes the available preclinical and clinical evidence regarding the effect of proteasome inhibitors on bone remodeling in multiple myeloma.

Diagnosis and treatment of bone metastasis requires various types of measures, specialists and caregivers. To provide better diagnosis and treatment, a multidisciplinary team approach is required. The members of this multidisciplinary team include doctors of primary cancers, radiologists, pathologists, orthopaedists, radiotherapists, clinical oncologists, palliative caregivers, rehabilitation doctors, dentists, nurses, pharmacists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, medical social workers, etc. Medical evidence was extracted from published articles describing meta-analyses or randomised controlled trials concerning patients with bone metastases mainly from 2003 to 2013, and a guideline was developed according to the Medical Information Network Distribution Service Handbook for Clinical Practice Guideline Development 2014. Multidisciplinary team meetings are helpful in diagnosis and treatment. Clinical benefits such as physical or psychological palliation obtained using the multidisciplinary team approaches are apparent. We established a guideline describing each specialty field, to improve understanding of the different fields among the specialists, who can further provide appropriate treatment, and to improve patients’ outcomes.

Mechanism of Action of Bortezomib and the New Proteasome Inhibitors on Myeloma Cells and the Bone Microenvironment: Impact on Myeloma-Induced Alterations of Bone Remodeling. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2015; 2015:172458. [PMID: 26579531 PMCID: PMC4633537 DOI: 10.1155/2015/172458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 75] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2015] [Revised: 09/22/2015] [Accepted: 09/27/2015] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by a high capacity to induce alterations in the bone remodeling process. The increase in osteoclastogenesis and the suppression of osteoblast formation are both involved in the pathophysiology of the bone lesions in MM. The proteasome inhibitor (PI) bortezomib is the first drug designed and approved for the treatment of MM patients by targeting the proteasome. However, recently novel PIs have been developed to overcome bortezomib resistance. Interestingly, several preclinical data indicate that the proteasome complex is involved in both osteoclast and osteoblast formation. It is also evident that bortezomib either inhibits osteoclast differentiation induced by the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL) or stimulates the osteoblast differentiation. Similarly, the new PIs including carfilzomib and ixazomib can inhibit bone resorption and stimulate the osteoblast differentiation. In a clinical setting, PIs restore the abnormal bone remodeling by normalizing the levels of bone turnover markers. In addition, a bone anabolic effect was described in responding MM patients treated with PIs, as demonstrated by the increase in the osteoblast number. This review summarizes the preclinical and clinical evidence on the effects of bortezomib and other new PIs on myeloma bone disease.

Abstract
Bone loss in multiple myeloma (MM) is caused by an uncoupling of bone formation to resorption trigged by malignant plasma cells. Increasing evidence indicates that the bone remodelling compartment (BRC) canopy, which normally covers the remodelling sites, is important for coupled bone remodelling. Loss of this canopy has been associated with bone loss. This study addresses whether the bone remodelling in MM is improved by high-dose therapy. Bone marrow biopsies obtained from 20 MM patients, before and after first-line treatment with high-dose melphalan followed by autologous stem cell transplantation, and from 20 control patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance were histomorphometrically investigated. This investigation confirmed that MM patients exhibited uncoupled bone formation to resorption and reduced canopy coverage. More importantly, this study revealed that a good response to anti-myeloma treatment increased the extent of formative bone surfaces with canopy, and reduced the extent of eroded surfaces without canopy, reverting the uncoupled bone remodelling, while improving canopy coverage. The association between improved coupling and the canopy coverage supports the notion that canopies are critical for the coupling of bone formation to resorption. Furthermore, this study supports the observation that systemic bone disease in MM can be reversed in MM patients responding to anti-myeloma treatment.

Abstract
SUMMARY Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell malignancy associated with the development of life-threatening and/or severe osteolytic lesions, which significantly worsen the quality of life of affected patients. MM-related bone disease (BD) is the result of an overwhelming osteoclastic activity, while osteoblast-mediated bone formation is inhibited. Bisphosphonates are still the mainstay of therapy for BD. However, these drugs are associated with mid long-term sequelae. In this work, we review the pathogenesis and currently available therapies of MM-related BD. We describe the most recent and promising findings that may translate in changing the clinical practice in the next future.

Abstract
SUMMARY Aim: We conducted a retrospective single center study to measure bone healing by conventional x-ray radiographs (CXR) and computer tomography (CT) in multiple myeloma patients treated with bortezomib. Imaging data were correlated with serum levels of alkaline phosphatases and with disease response. Materials & methods: We identified 26 multiple myeloma patients receiving six or more 3-weekly cycles of bortezomib with radiological assessments. Imaging data before, during and after bortezomib, were analyzed for signs of bone healing. Results: In the group of CXR, 8/21 patients (38%) had evidence of bone healing compared with 7/10 patients (70%) in the CT group. Signs of bone healing were observed after an average of 28 (CXR) or 30 (CT) bortezomib administrations. Alkaline phosphatases did not correlate with bone healing or with disease response. Conclusion: In 13/26 (or 50%) of patients a beneficial bortezomib-related skeletal effect could be detected. This retrospective study provides further evidence for skeletal improvement during treatment with bortezomib.

Abstract
Bortezomib is the first proteasome inhibitor drug tested in human patients. Bortezomib demonstrates a particular clinical utility in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM), where it is the only one of the new drugs administered as mono-therapy that prolongs survival. The significant problem for the consistent pursuit of bortezomib was neurotoxicity, which has been significantly reduced by registering subcutaneous administration or being administered once per week. Bortezomib is currently approved for the treatment of patients with progressive MM in mono-therapy and in combination with prednisone and melphalan in cases of untreated patients who are not candidates for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) and in combination with dexamethasone or dexamethasone and thalidomide in untreated MM patients, who are candidates for treatment AHSCT. Clinical research is focused on the combination of bortezomib with other new drugs with the hope of further optimizing the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma.

Abstract
The treatment of multiple myeloma has undergone significant changes and has resulted in the achievement of molecular remissions, the prolongation of remission duration, and extended survival becoming realistic goals, with a cure being possible in a small but growing number of patients. In addition, nowadays it is possible to categorize patients more precisely into different risk groups, thus allowing the evaluation of therapies in different settings and enabling a better comparison of results across trials. Here, we review the evidence from clinical studies, which forms the basis for our recommendations for the management of patients with myeloma. Treatment approaches depend on "fitness," with chronological age still being an important discriminator for selecting therapy. In younger, fit patients, a short three drug-based induction treatment followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) remains the preferred option. Consolidation and maintenance therapy are attractive strategies not yet approved by the European Medicines Agency, and a decision regarding post-ASCT therapy should only be made after detailed discussion of the pros and cons with the individual patient. Two- and three-drug combinations are recommended for patients not eligible for transplantation. Treatment should be administered for at least nine cycles, although different durations of initial therapy have only rarely been compared so far. Comorbidity and frailty should be thoroughly assessed in elderly patients, and treatment must be adapted to individual needs, carefully selecting appropriate drugs and doses. A substantial number of new drugs and novel drug classes in early clinical development have shown promising activity. Their introduction into clinical practice will most likely further improve treatment results.

Abstract
We conducted a systematic review to determine the appropriate use of bortezomib alone or in combination with other agents in patients with multiple myeloma (mm). We searched medline, embase, the Cochrane Library, conference proceedings, and the reference lists of included studies. We analyzed randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews if they involved adult mm patients treated with bortezomib and if they reported on survival, disease control, response, quality of life, or adverse effects. Twenty-six unique studies met the inclusion criteria. For patients with previously untreated mm and for candidates for transplantation, we found a statistically significant benefit in time to progression [hazard ratio (hr): 0.48, p < 0.001; and hr: 0.63, p = 0.006, respectively] and a better response with a bortezomib than with a non-bortezomib regimen (p < 0.001). Progression-free survival was longer with bortezomib and thalidomide than with thalidomide alone (p = 0.01). In non-candidates for transplantation, a significant benefit in overall survival was observed with a bortezomib regimen (hr compared with a non-bortezomib regimen: 0.61; p = 0.008), and in transplantation candidates receiving bortezomib, the response rate was improved after induction (p = 0.004) and after a first transplant (p = 0.016). In relapsed or refractory mm, overall survival (p = 0.03), time to progression (hr: 1.82; p = 0.000004), and progression-free survival (hr: 1.69; p = 0.000026) were significantly improved with bortezomib and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (compared with bortezomib alone), and bortezomib monotherapy was better than dexamethasone alone (hr: 0.77; p = 0.027). Bortezomib combined with thalidomide and dexamethasone was better than either bortezomib monotherapy or thalidomide with dexamethasone (p < 0.001). In previously untreated or in relapsed or refractory mm patients, bortezomib-based therapy has improved disease control and, in some patients, overall survival.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma is a hematological malignancy in which clonal plasma cells proliferate and accumulate within the bone marrow. The presence of osteolytic lesions due to increased osteoclast (OC) activity and suppressed osteoblast (OB) function is characteristic of the disease. The bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) play a critical role in multiple myeloma pathophysiology, greatly promoting the growth, survival, drug resistance and migration of myeloma cells. Here, we specifically discuss on the relative contribution of MSCs to the pathophysiology of osteolytic lesions in light of the current knowledge of the biology of myeloma bone disease (MBD), together with the reported genomic, functional and gene expression differences between MSCs derived from myeloma patients (pMSCs) and their healthy counterparts (dMSCs). Being MSCs the progenitors of OBs, pMSCs primarily contribute to the pathogenesis of MBD because of their reduced osteogenic potential consequence of multiple OB inhibitory factors and direct interactions with myeloma cells in the bone marrow. Importantly, pMSCs also readily contribute to MBD by promoting OC formation and activity at various levels (i.e., increasing RANKL to OPG expression, augmenting secretion of activin A, uncoupling ephrinB2-EphB4 signaling, and through augmented production of Wnt5a), thus further contributing to OB/OC uncoupling in osteolytic lesions. In this review, we also look over main signaling pathways involved in the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs and/or OB activity, highlighting amenable therapeutic targets; in parallel, the reported activity of bone-anabolic agents (at preclinical or clinical stage) targeting those signaling pathways is commented.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Emerging evidence demonstrates that the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is a promising target for cancer therapy. Bortezomib (Velcade) exhibits great efficacy against multiple myeloma (MM) since the first clinical application. However, there are still several limitations associated with the use of bortezomib, including severe toxicities. To overcome bortezomib's shortcomings and to improve its safety profile, several second-generation proteasome inhibitors, for example, carfilzomib, ixazomib, oprozomib and marizomib, have been developed and currently tested in various clinical trials. AREAS COVERED A literature search was carried out using PubMed and Google Scholar. The activity and safety profiling of proteasome inhibitors in treatment of various cancers were reviewed. EXPERT OPINION Bortezomib, as a single or in combination therapy, demonstrates efficacy against MM or other hematological malignancies in clinical settings. However, it encounters two major problems, the acquired resistance and the severe side effects. Future direction in bortezomib-based therapy should focus on how to increase or retain its efficacy but improve its safety profile through, for example, rational combination therapies. Second-generation proteasome inhibitors have shown benefits in both overcoming bortezomib resistance and reducing related side effects, although these encouraging results should be further confirmed in a larger clinic population.

Abstract
The use of novel agents such as thalidomide, lenalidomide, and bortezomib has considerably improved the outcome of multiple myeloma patients. Besides greater biological activity, these drugs unfortunately have also been associated with greater toxicity. To evaluate the positive effect on the quality of life of patients, driven by both the tolerability and antimyeloma activity of bortezomib, we analyzed data that have been published concerning different strategies used to improve its tolerability as once weekly and/or subcutaneous administration.

Abstract
We conducted a prospective multicenter study identifying the role of bortezomib in patients with relapsed or refractory plasma cell myeloma (PCM) in bone resorption and formation via bone turnover markers. A total of 104 patients received at least 1 cycle of bortezomib. Most of them had advanced disease (n = 89). Among them, 75 patients completed 4 cycles of treatment. Most of the patients (81.7%) were treated in combination with steroid. After the 4th cycle treatment, 47 of 75 patients achieved CR, nCR, VGPR, and PR (64.4%), while 26 patients achieved less than PR (35.6%). The proportion of patients who achieved ≥ PR increased as patients received more treatment cycles, reaching 90% after the 8th cycle. DKK-1 levels decreased significantly posttreatment. Bone formation markers (bALP and OC) and osteoclast regulator such as sRANKL also decreased significantly. These findings were observed primarily in patients who received steroid and who had a longer disease duration. While sRANKL demonstrated significant reduction posttreatment, osteoprotegerin (OPG) level did not significantly change posttreatment, resulting in a decreased sRANKL/OPG ratio (P = 0.037). In conclusion, our clinical data suggest that treatment with bortezomib and steroid may rearrange the metabolic balance between osteoblast and osteoclast activities in PCM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with multiple myeloma may be susceptible to osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) and stress fractures due to long-term aminobisphosphonate (aBP) therapy. However, it is unknown whether urinary N-telopeptide (NTX) or other bone biomarkers are predictive of skeletal-related events (SRE) or the impact of cessation of aBP therapy on bone remodeling. METHODS We studied markers of bone turnover over a 6-month period after a single dose of zoledronic acid in 29 patients with multiple myeloma in remission who previously received 8 to 12 doses of pamidronate or zoledronate (NCT00577642). Our primary objective was to determine the duration of time urinary NTX levels remain suppressed after a single dose of zoledronate. A secondary objective was to identify and correlate other markers of bone remodeling with NTX changes. Thirty cytokines, based on their possible role in bone remodeling, were tested using cytokine arrays. Candidates were confirmed by ELISA. RESULTS All patients had continued suppression of NTX levels, except 1 patient who had an increase in NTX levels associated with an SRE. GDF-15 and decorin were found to decrease, whereas bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BSALP) increased. Although not significant in aggregate, osteopontin and osteoprotegerin levels increased in at least half of the patients. CONCLUSION Our data show that NTX levels continue to be suppressed after aBP therapy, and suggest that suppressed NTX levels may be predictive of freedom from SRE in this patient population. Furthermore, osteoblast suppression by aBP may be reversible in myeloma. These data provide the basis for less frequent dosing of aBPs.

Abstract
Clinically significant serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) variations have been reported in multiple myeloma (MM) patients treated with proteasome inhibitors. To elucidate the association between serum PTH variations and proteasome inhibition in MM, the effect of PTH and PTHR1 ligands on the proteasome inhibitors bortezomib and carfilzomib in vitro and in vivo was determined. The MM cell lines ARP1, OC1 and 5TGM1 expressed mRNA and protein encoding PTH receptor 1 (PTHR1). Treatment of 5TGM1 cells with either PTH(1-34), bortezomib or carfilzomib alone dose-dependently inhibited 5TGM1 cell proliferation. However, treatment with the potent PTHR1 antagonist [TYR34]PTH(7-34) (PTH(7-34)) had no significant effect on myeloma cell proliferation and cell viability. In contrast, when used in combination with bortezomib or carfilzomib, PTH(7-34) treatment significantly reduced the bortezomib or carfilzomib-associated decrease in cell proliferation. Treatment of the C57BL/KaLwRij mouse myeloma model with either bortezomib or carfilzomib provided a significantly prolonged survival benefit compared to controls (p=0.04; p=0.01 respectfully). This potent anti-myeloma effect was completely abrogated by concomitant treatment with PTH(7-34). These results suggest an important role of the PTHR1 in the anti-myeloma effect of proteosome inhibition.

Abstract
PURPOSE MLN9708 (ixazomib citrate), which hydrolyzes to pharmacologically active MLN2238 (ixazomib), is a next-generation proteasome inhibitor with demonstrated preclinical and clinical antimyeloma activity, but yet with an unknown effect on myeloma bone disease. Here, we investigated its bone anabolic and antiresorptive effects in the myeloma setting and in comparison with bortezomib in preclinical models. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The in vitro effect of MLN2238 was tested on osteoclasts and osteoclast precursors from healthy donors and patients with myeloma, and on osteoprogenitors derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells also from both origins. We used an in vivo model of bone marrow-disseminated human myeloma to evaluate MLN2238 antimyeloma and bone activities. RESULTS Clinically achievable concentrations of MLN2238 markedly inhibited in vitro osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast resorption; these effects involved blockade of RANKL (receptor activator of NF-κB ligand)-induced NF-κB activation, F-actin ring disruption, and diminished expression of αVβ3 integrin. A similar range of MLN2238 concentrations promoted in vitro osteoblastogenesis and osteoblast activity (even in osteoprogenitors from patients with myeloma), partly mediated by activation of TCF/β-catenin signaling and upregulation of the IRE1 component of the unfolded protein response. In a mouse model of bone marrow-disseminated human multiple myeloma, orally administered MLN2238 was equally effective as bortezomib to control tumor burden and also provided a marked benefit in associated bone disease (sustained by both bone anabolic and anticatabolic activities). CONCLUSION Given favorable data on pharmacologic properties and emerging clinical safety profile of MLN9708, it is conceivable that this proteasome inhibitor may achieve bone beneficial effects in addition to its antimyeloma activity in patients with myeloma.

Abstract
The combination of lenalidomide plus dexamethasone (RD) is very effective for patients with relapsed/ refractory myeloma. However, the effect of RD on bone metabolism has not been previously evaluated in these patients. To address this issue, we initially performed a retrospective study in 106 consecutive patients with relapsed or refractory myeloma who received RD. We measured the following bone indices on Cycle 1/Day 1 and then on Cycles 3 and 6/Day 28: dickkopf-1 (Dkk-1), sRANKL, osteoprotegerin (OPG), bone resorption markers (C-telopeptide of collagen type-I, CTX and TRACP-5b) and bone formation markers (bone-specific alkaline phosphatase-bALP and osteocalcin). RD produced a reduction of CTX only in responders, with no effect on bone formation. To validate these results, we then evaluated prospectively 99 patients who received either RD (n550) or VRD (bortezomib + RD, n549). RD reduced CTX, mainly in responders but showed no effect on bone formation, confirming the result of the retrospective study. However, the addition of bortezomib to RD (VRD arm) reduced Dkk-1, sRANKL/OPG, and CTX, while it increased bALP and OC after six cycles of therapy. These changes were irrespective of treatment response, which was similar between treatment arms. No skeletal-related events were observed in the VRD arm while two, nonresponding patients treated with RD developed a vertebral fracture. We conclude that RD reduces bone resorption only in responding patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma but has no effect on bone formation. Combination with bortezomib, which enhances bone formation, seems to be preferred for the management of myeloma patients with osteolytic disease.

Abstract
Bortezomib has demonstrated substantial activity in the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma and is widely incorporated into treatment strategies across the different settings. It is interesting to note that data are accumulating to suggest that the activity of bortezomib extends beyond the tumor cell and microenvironment to encompass effects on bone metabolism. Indeed, data from both the preclinical and clinical settings have suggested that bortezomib directly stimulates osteoblast growth and differentiation, while also inhibiting osteoclast development and activity. Notably, in the clinical setting, the bone anabolic effects of bortezomib could be demonstrated by the healing of lytic lesions as noted in some patients. These results are of importance because bone disease is a hallmark of myeloma and therefore any agent that combines antimyeloma activity with positive effects on bone is of substantial interest. However, further studies are needed to establish how the agent should be used for the treatment of patients with bone disease.

Abstract
We prospectively evaluated the effect of bortezomib, thalidomide and dexamethasone (VTD) consolidation on bone metabolism of 42 myeloma patients who underwent an autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). VTD started on day 100 post ASCT; patients received four cycles of VTD (first block), were followed without treatment for 100 days and then received another four VTD cycles (second block). During this 12-month period, bisphosphonates were not administered. Best response included stringent complete remission (sCR) in 15 (35.7%) patients, complete response (CR) in 13 (30.9%), vgPR in 7 (16.6%), PR in 4 (9.5%), while 3 (7.1%) patients developed a progressive disease (PD). Importantly, 33.3% and 47.6% of patients improved their status of response after the first and second VTD block, respectively. VTD consolidation resulted in a significant reduction of circulating C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of collagen type I (CTX), soluble receptor activator of the nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (sRANKL) and osteocalcin (OC), whereas bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (bALP) remained stable compared with pre-VTD values. During the study period, only one patient with a PD developed a skeletal-related event (that is, radiation to bone). The median time to progression (TTP) after ASCT was 34 months and the median time of next treatment was 40 months. We conclude that VTD consolidation post ASCT reduces bone resorption and is associated with a very low incidence of skeletal-related events (SREs) despite the absence of bisphosphonates; the later do not appear to be necessary in this context.

Abstract
Bone metastasis is a frequent complication of cancer, occurring in up to 70% of patients with advanced breast or prostate cancer, while bone disease is also the characteristic clinical feature of multiple myeloma. Skeletal-related events can be devastating, with major effect on the quality of life and survival. Bisphosphonates are the mainstay of therapeutic management of bone disease of solid tumors and myeloma, and denosumab has recently been approved for patients with bone metastases. Both act through inhibition of the osteoclast activity but do not restore bone formation. Proteasome inhibition has direct bone anabolic effects. Proteasome inhibitors have been used in the management of patients with multiple myeloma and mantle-cell lymphoma during the last decade. In multiple myeloma, bortezomib, the first-in-class proteasome inhibitor, has shown both in vitro and in vivo regulation of bone remodeling by inhibiting osteoclast function and promoting osteoblast activity. Bortezomib also reduces bone resorption but more importantly increases bone formation and bone mineral density, at least, in subsets of myeloma patients. Thus, bortezomib is recommended for myeloma patients with extended bone disease in combination with bisphosphonates. This review focuses on the effects of the proteasome system on bone metabolism and the implications into the better management of patients with cancer and bone disease.

Abstract
No anabolic drugs are currently approved to treat multiple myeloma (MM)-induced bone disease and the anti-MM agent bortezomib exhibits the anabolic effects in the clinic. In this study, we focus on investigating potential anabolic treatments of MM-induced bone disease using our previously proposed MM-bone model, with the goal for clarifying the underlying molecular/cellular mechanisms. Firstly, a variety of virtual drug treatments are explored by the parametric study to clarify the anabolic-related molecular/cellular mechanisms. The real drug (i.e., bortezomib) treatments are further examined by developing an integrated model with bortezomib to validate the clarified anabolic-related molecular/cellular mechanisms. The simulated responses to the bortezomib treatments that are validated by the clinical data are consistent with the simulated responses to the virtual drug treatments. Our study clarifies that the anabolic effects in the treatment of MM-induced bone disease are associated with promoting the differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) and inhibiting the apoptosis of active osteoblasts, while promoting the differentiation of osteoblast precursors is instead suggested to be associated with the anti-catabolic effects. Compared with the individual anabolic therapies, the anabolic therapies that promote the differentiation of BMSC in combination with the anti-MM/anti-catabolic therapies are found to induce a greater increase in the bone volume, while the anabolic therapies that inhibit the apoptosis of active osteoblasts in combination with the anti-MM/anti-catabolic therapies induce a lower increase in the bone volume. The simulations also suggest that the direct inhibition of bortezomib on the osteoclast activity is probably a redundant mechanism.

Abstract
The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and associated signaling pathways are regarded today as an exciting area of development for novel therapeutics. However, two decades ago, following the discovery and elucidation of ubiquitin and the 26S proteasome as key mediators of protein turnover, the concept of inhibiting the UPS was not even considered a feasible therapeutic approach due to the assumption that inhibition of this pathway would have widespread deleterious effects. Subsequent clinical developments with the first-in-class proteasome inhibitor bortezomib have radically overturned that view, with the proteasome now recognized as a validated target and proteasome inhibition demonstrated to be a highly successful treatment for a number of hematologic malignancies. Here we provide a historic perspective on the emergence of proteasome inhibition, sharing some of the lessons learned along the way. We describe the development of bortezomib and the elucidation of the effects of its novel mechanism of action, and place the cutting-edge work described elsewhere in this issue in the context of these historic developments.

Abstract
Recent years have seen a dramatic change in the approach towards diagnosing and treating Multiple Myeloma. Newer and more target specific approach to treatment has prolonged the survival for patients with multiple myeloma. The proteasome inhibitors make an important class of anti-myeloma drugs that disrupts the proteolytic machinery of the tumor cells preferentially, enhancing their susceptibility to apoptosis. Bortezomib, in particular has shown significant clinical efficacy in myeloma treatment. It is the most commonly used proteasome inhibitor and has been tested to be effective in prolonging the overall survival in several trials. Its combinations with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone are the treatment of choice for standard risk patients following the mSMART guidelines. The success with its lower dosage in elderly and its proven efficacious subcutaneous usage makes Bortezomib a useful agent for maximizing patient compliance and minimizing therapy related toxicity and costs. This review discusses several trials where Bortezomib has been used as a single/combination agent for front-line treatment of multiple myeloma.
