Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite advances, most patients with multiple myeloma (MM) experience relapse and repeat multiple treatment lines, highlighting an unmet need for patients with relapsed or refractory MM (RRMM). Bispecific antibodies are a new option, but their efficacy and safety in Japanese patients are unknown. METHODS This was an analysis of Japanese patients receiving elranatamab monotherapy in MagnetisMM-2 (NCT04798586) and MagnetisMM-3 (NCT04649359). Both studies evaluated a priming dose regimen of elranatamab followed by weekly subcutaneous doses, in patients with disease progression while receiving or who were intolerant to ≥3 prior therapies (≥1 proteasome inhibitor, ≥1 immunomodulatory drug and ≥1 anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody). The primary endpoints were dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in MagnetisMM-2 and confirmed objective response rate (ORR) in MagnetisMM-3. In both, key secondary endpoints included safety, tolerability, duration of response, time to response, progression-free survival and overall survival. RESULTS In MagnetisMM-2 (N = 4) and MagnetisMM-3 (n = 12), median ages were 68.5 and 66.5 years, respectively. No DLTs were observed in MagnetisMM-2. ORRs were 50.0% (95% CI, 6.8-93.2) and 58.3% (95% CI, 27.7-84.8) in MagnetisMM-2 and MagnetisMM-3, respectively. All patients experienced treatment-emergent adverse events in MagnetisMM-2 (grade 3/4: 75.0%) and MagnetisMM-3 (grade 3/4: 100%); cytokine release syndrome occurred in 100% (grade 3/4: 25.0%) and 58.3% (no grade 3/4) of patients, respectively. Neither study reported immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome. CONCLUSIONS No new safety signals were observed, and ORRs were similar to that of the overall MagnetisMM-3 trial population, supporting further studies of elranatamab in Japanese patients with RRMM. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04798586 (MagnetisMM-2), NCT04649359 (MagnetisMM-3).

Bortezomib Increased Vascular Permeability by Decreasing Cell-Cell Junction Molecules in Human Pulmonary Microvascular Endothelial Cells. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:10842.

Abstract
Bortezomib (BTZ), a chemotherapeutic drug used to treat multiple myeloma, induces life-threatening side effects, including severe pulmonary toxicity. However, the mechanisms underlying these effects remain unclear. The objectives of this study were to (1) investigate whether BTZ influences vascular permeability and (2) clarify the effect of BTZ on the expression of molecules associated with cell-cell junctions using human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells in vitro. Clinically relevant concentrations of BTZ induced limited cytotoxicity and increased the permeability of human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cell monolayers. BTZ decreased the protein expression of claudin-5, occludin, and VE-cadherin but not that of ZO-1 and β-catenin. Additionally, BTZ decreased the mRNA expression of claudin-5, occludin, ZO-1, VE-cadherin, and β-catenin. Our results suggest that BTZ increases the vascular permeability of the pulmonary microvascular endothelium by downregulating cell-cell junction molecules, particularly claudin-5, occludin, and VE-cadherin.

Luo J, Zheng Z, Yu R. Analysis of medical malpractice liability disputes related to novel antineoplastic drugs and research on risk prevention and control strategies. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0286623. [PMID: 37276214 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0286623] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/07/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the general characteristics of litigation cases of medical malpractice liability disputes (MMLDs) related to novel antineoplastic drugs (NADs), the drugs involved, as well as the common types of medical errors related to NADs and their damages in the process of diagnosis and treatment, with the aims of improving the level of rational medication use in the clinical application of NADs and actively prevent medical disputes. METHODS The China Judgments Online was searched for the cause of action using the key word "MMLDs" along with the name of 77 kinds of NADs. A total of 39 NAD litigation cases meeting the inclusion criteria from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2021 were analyzed, and each potential adverse drug reaction (ADR) was reviewed to determine a causality assessment using the Naranjo algorithm for non-drug-induced liver injury (DILI) cases and the updated Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method (RUCAM) for the DILI cases. Risk prevention and control strategies were recommended. RESULTS Cases that met the inclusion criteria increased substantially each year during the last six years, from three cases in 2009-2015 to 36 cases in 2016-2021. There were more cases in Eastern China than in other geographic regions. Most cases involved tertiary hospitals, patients between 25 and 60 years of age, and patients who were predominately male. There were 18 kinds of NADs involved in medical errors. The most common consequences of NADs were closely related to the death, disability, and increased treatment costs caused by ADRs, inadequate indications, delayed diagnosis and treatment, and misdiagnosis and mistreatment. The most frequent medical errors were medical technology errors, medical ethics errors and medical record writing/safekeeping errors. In two cases involving DILI, one case was unable to undergo further RUCAM scoring because the liver function indicators of the patient before and after treatment were not published. CONCLUSION The establishment of mechanisms to reduce the risks associated with the clinical application of NADs is warranted. Healthcare services must maintain strict adherence to the specific requirements of GPCANADs and drug instructions and strictly grasp the indications, contraindications, usage, and dosage of drugs, and strengthen the notification and management of off-label drug use. Monitoring patients for ADRs and preparing rescue and treatment measures for high-risk drugs may serve to reduce damages related to NADs. For DILI cases, medical and appraisal institutions should use RUCAM score to assess causal relationships.

Abstract
Kirsten rat sarcoma virus (KRAS)-mutant cancers are frequent, metastatic, lethal, and largely undruggable. While interleukin (IL)-1β and nuclear factor (NF)-κB inhibition hold promise against cancer, untargeted treatments are not effective. Here, we show that human KRAS-mutant cancers are addicted to IL-1β via inflammatory versican signaling to macrophage inhibitor of NF-κB kinase (IKK) β. Human pan-cancer and experimental NF-κB reporter, transcriptome, and proteome screens reveal that KRAS-mutant tumors trigger macrophage IKKβ activation and IL-1β release via secretory versican. Tumor-specific versican silencing and macrophage-restricted IKKβ deletion prevents myeloid NF-κB activation and metastasis. Versican and IKKβ are mutually addicted and/or overexpressed in human cancers and possess diagnostic and prognostic power. Non-oncogene KRAS/IL-1β addiction is abolished by IL-1β and TLR1/2 inhibition, indicating cardinal and actionable roles for versican and IKKβ in metastasis.

Abstract
Crystalline light chain cast nephropathy is a rare distinct morphologic variant of light chain cast nephropathy which is the most common renal lesion associated with multiple myeloma. It is often related to high myeloma tumor burden, severe acute kidney injury, and an unfavorable prognosis. A 79-year-old Japanese man was referred to our medical center with anemia, proteinuria, and acute exacerbation of the serum creatinine accompanying anuria. A renal biopsy showed crystalline cast filling the tubular lumens, injured tubular cells, and inflammatory cells infiltration of interstitium. Serum and urine immunofixation detected a monoclonal protein (IgA-λ and Bence-Jones Protein-λ, respectively), and bone marrow examination observed 64% of plasma cells. IgA-λ type multiple myeloma-associated crystalline light chain cast nephropathy and accompanying acute kidney injury were confirmed. Hydration and emergency hemodialysis were immediately introduced, and the treatment with bortezomib and dexamethasone was initiated. The patient showed successful recovery in renal manifestations. We suggest that early use with bortezomib-based therapy should be considered for patients with acute kidney injury caused by multiple myeloma-associated crystalline light chain cast nephropathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osimertinib is associated with a relatively high frequency of drug-induced interstitial lung disease (D-ILD), and transient asymptomatic pulmonary opacities (TAPO) have been reported to occur during osimertinib administration. The frequency of TAPO during first-line treatment and the pros and cons of osimertinib continuation is unknown. METHODS This was a multicenter, retrospective study. The purpose of this study was to research the frequency of TAPO and to evaluate osimertinib continuation in first-line therapy. We also evaluated progression-free survival (PFS) including subgroup analysis. RESULTS From August 2018 to December 2020, 133 patients were enrolled into the study. The median observation period was 23.2 months (0.3-48.3 months). Thirty patients (22.6%) experienced D-ILD events, including 16 patients (12.1%) with CTCAE grade 1, five patients (3.8%) with grade 2, and nine patients (6.7%) with grade 3 and above D-ILD. Among the patients with grade 1 D-ILD, 11 cases (8.3%) of TAPO were observed, and all patients succeeded in osimertinib continuation. The TAPO images were characterized by localized patchy opacities (73%). The median PFS was 22.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 17.8-28.7 months). Patients with TAPO had a significantly longer PFS than patients with non-TAPO D-ILD in the multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that grade 1 D-ILD might include TAPO and that patients with TAPO might have good PFS. We need to consider the possibility of osimertinib continuation when lung opacities appear.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Daratumumab, an anti-CD38 monoclonalantibody, is a safe and effective antibody used in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM), which is rarely reported to cause severe pulmonary complications. CASE SUMMARY A 58-year-old man diagnosed with MM and preexisting interstitial lung disease developed a high fever and severe dyspnea after administering Daratumumab and bortezomib-containing regimen. Chest CT showed bilaterally and diffused ground-glass opacities and consolidations. A quick improvement was achieved in both clinical symptoms and chest imaging findings through the administration of large doses of methylprednisolone, followed by oral prednisolone. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION This is the first case reporting Daratumumab and bortezomib-containing regimen-induced lung injury characterized by preexisting interstitial lung disease.

Abstract
Disruption of alveolar type 2 cell (AEC2) protein quality control has been implicated in chronic lung diseases, including pulmonary fibrosis (PF). We previously reported the in vivo modeling of a clinical surfactant protein C (SP-C) mutation that led to AEC2 endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and spontaneous lung fibrosis, providing proof of concept for disruption to proteostasis as a proximal driver of PF. Using two clinical SP-C mutation models, we have now discovered that AEC2s experiencing significant ER stress lose quintessential AEC2 features and develop a reprogrammed cell state that heretofore has been seen only as a response to lung injury. Using single-cell RNA sequencing in vivo and organoid-based modeling, we show that this state arises de novo from intrinsic AEC2 dysfunction. The cell-autonomous AEC2 reprogramming can be attenuated through inhibition of inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1α) signaling as the use of an IRE1α inhibitor reduced the development of the reprogrammed cell state and also diminished AEC2-driven recruitment of granulocytes, alveolitis, and lung injury. These findings identify AEC2 proteostasis, and specifically IRE1α signaling through its major product XBP-1, as a driver of a key AEC2 phenotypic change that has been identified in lung fibrosis.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23179569.

Abstract
Targeted therapies are the most attractive options in the treatment of different tumours, including kidney cancers. Such therapies have entered a golden era due to advancements in research, breakthroughs in scientific knowledge, and a better understanding of cancer therapy mechanisms, which significantly improve the survival rates and life expectancy of patients. The use of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) as an anticancer therapy has attracted the attention of the scientific community and created great excitement due to its selectivity in targeting cancerous cells with no toxic impacts on normal tissues. However, clinical studies disappointingly showed the emergence of resistance against TRAIL. This study aimed to employ curcumin to sensitise TRAIL-resistant kidney cancerous ACHN cells, as well as to gain insight into the molecular mechanisms of TRAIL sensitization. Curcumin deregulated the expression of apoptosis-regulating micro Ribonucleic Acid (miRNAs), most notably, let-7C. Transfecting ACHN cells with a let-7C antagomir significantly increased the expression of several cell cycle protein, namely beta (β)-catenin, cyclin dependent kinase (CDK)1/2/4/6 and cyclin B/D. Further, it overexpressed the expression of the two key glycolysis regulating proteins including hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) and pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 (PDK1). Curcumin also suppressed the expression of the overexpressed proteins when added to the antagomir transfected cells. Overall, curcumin targeted ACHN cell cycle and cellular metabolism by promoting the differential expression of let-7C. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to mechanistically report the cancer chemosensitisation potential of curcumin in kidney cancer cells via induction of let-7C.

Abstract
The prognosis of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has improved dramatically since the development of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Three second-generation TKIs, including bosutinib, are currently approved for treatment of CML, and show a faster and deeper clinical response than imatinib. Common adverse events (AEs) of bosutinib are diarrhea and hepatic toxicity; however, lung complications are rare. Here, we report two cases of bosutinib-induced severe lung injury, along with a literature review. The events of these cases occurred at early time points and severity was extremely high, requiring high-flow oxygen and steroid treatments. Compared to previously reported cases, the prevalence and severity of the damage may vary among different ethnicities. However, bosutinib-induced lung injury can cause life-threatening complications. In conclusion, patients treated with bosutinib should be monitored carefully to mitigate serious drug-induced lung injury.

Targeted Therapy in the Treatment of Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia-Therapy and Toxicity Mechanisms. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22189827.

Abstract
Targeted therapy has revolutionized the treatment of poor-prognosis pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with specific genetic abnormalities. It is still being described as a new landmark therapeutic approach. The main purpose of the use of molecularly targeted drugs and immunotherapy in the treatment of ALL is to improve the treatment outcomes and reduce the doses of conventional chemotherapy, while maintaining the effectiveness of the therapy. Despite promising treatment results, there is limited clinical research on the effect of target cell therapy on the potential toxic events in children and adolescents. The recent development of highly specific molecular methods has led to an improvement in the identification of numerous unique expression profiles of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The detection of specific genetic mutations determines patients’ risk groups, which allows for patient stratification and for an adjustment of the directed and personalized target therapies that are focused on particular molecular alteration. This review summarizes the knowledge concerning the toxicity of molecular-targeted drugs and immunotherapies applied in childhood ALL.

Abstract
The global, randomized, open-label KEYNOTE-185 study closed early after an interim analysis showed an unfavorable benefit-risk profile with pembrolizumab plus lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone (Rd) versus Rd alone in treatment-naive, transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma. This subgroup analysis reported outcomes in the Japanese population. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to pembrolizumab plus Rd or Rd alone, stratified by age and International Staging System. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). Fifty-two Japanese patients were randomly assigned to pembrolizumab plus Rd (n = 27) or Rd (n = 25). The median follow-up was 7.2 months (range, 0.4-13.8). The median PFS was not reached (NR); 6-month PFS was 91.2% versus 86.2% with pembrolizumab plus Rd versus Rd [hazard ratio (HR), 0.31; 95% CI, 0.06-1.63]. The median overall survival (OS) was NR; 6-month OS was 96.2% versus 95.7% with pembrolizumab plus Rd versus Rd (HR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.03-3.72). With pembrolizumab plus Rd versus Rd, grade 3-5 adverse events occurred in 70.4% versus 69.6% of patients; serious adverse events occurred in 40.7% versus 52.5%. Although in the Japanese subgroup of KEYNOTE-185 adding pembrolizumab to Rd did not show an unfavorable risk-benefit, the analysis is limited by short follow-up and small sample size, affecting generalizability of the results.

Abstract
Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is a commonly used procedure in the evaluation of lung disease as it allows for sampling of the lower respiratory tract. In many circumstances, BAL differential cell counts have been reported to be typical of specific lung disorders. In addition, more specific diagnostic tests including molecular assays such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, special cytopathologic stains, or particular microscopic findings have been described as part of BAL fluid analysis. This review focuses on common cellular and molecular findings of BAL in a wide range of lung diseases. Since the performance of the first lung irrigation in 1927, BAL has become a common and important diagnostic tool. While some pulmonary disorders have a highly characteristic signature of BAL findings, BAL results alone often lack specificity and require interpretation along with other clinical and radiographic details. Development of new diagnostic assays is certain to reinforce the utility of BAL in the future. Our review of the BAL literature is intended to serve as a resource to assist clinicians in the care of patients with lung disorders.

Abstract
Bortezomib, a chemotherapeutic agent used in the treatment of hematologic malignancies, has been associated with multiple forms of lung injury including diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH). We present the first reported case of bortezomib-induced DAH in a patient with plasma cell leukemia. This 59-year-old female developed hemoptysis, severe cough, and diffuse bilateral ground glass opacities on CT scan of the chest after receiving one dose of bortezomib, with DAH subsequently confirmed on bronchoalveolar lavage. Unlike most previously reported cases, she did not develop respiratory failure requiring high dose corticosteroids, and in fact did not require any supplemental oxygen. We also provide a comparative summary of all reports of bortezomib-induced DAH in the literature to date. This case provides additional insight into the spectrum of disease severity observed in DAH secondary to bortezomib therapy.

Abstract
The popular beverage green tea possesses chemopreventive activity against various types of tumors. However, the effects of its chemopreventive effect on hematological malignancies have not been defined. In the present study, we evaluated antitumor efficacies of a specific green tea, sencha tea, on sensitive and multidrug-resistant leukemia and a panel of nine multiple myelomas (MM) cell lines. We found that sencha extracts induced cytotoxicity in leukemic cells and MM cells to different extents, yet its effect on normal cells was limited. Furthermore, sencha extracts caused G2/M and G0/G1 phase arrest during cell cycle progression in CCRF/CEM and KMS-12-BM cells, respectively. Specifically, sencha-MeOH/H2O extracts induced apoptosis, ROS, and MMP collapse on both CCRF/CEM and KMS-12-BM cells. The analysis with microarray and COMPARE in 53 cell lines of the NCI panel revealed diverse functional groups, including cell morphology, cellular growth and proliferation, cell cycle, cell death, and survival, which were closely associated with anti-tumor effects of sencha tea. It is important to note that PI3K/Akt and NF-κB pathways were the top two dominant networks by ingenuity pathway analysis. We demonstrate here the multifactorial modes of action of sencha tea leading to chemopreventive effects of sencha tea against cancer.

Abstract
The vast majority of patients with light-chain (AL) amyloidosis are not eligible for stem cell transplant and are treated with conventional chemotherapy. Conventional regimens are based on various combinations of dexamethasone, alkylating agents, proteasome inhibitors, and immunomodulatory drugs. The choice of these regimens requires a careful risk stratification, based on the extent of amyloid organ involvement, comorbidities, and the characteristics of the amyloidogenic plasma cell clone. Most patients are treated upfront with bortezomib and dexamethasone combined with cyclophosphamide or melphalan. Cyclophosphamide does not compromise stem cell mobilization and harvest and is more manageable in renal failure. Melphalan can overcome the effect of t(11;14), which is associated with lower response rates and shorter survival in subjects treated with bortezomib and dexamethasone, or in combination with cyclophosphamide. Lenalidomide and pomalidomide are the mainstay of rescue treatment. They are effective in patients exposed to bortezomib, dexamethasone, and alkylators, but deep hematologic responses are rare. Ixazomib, alone or in combination with lenalidomide, increases the rate of complete responses in relapsed/refractory patients. Conventional chemotherapy regimens will represent the backbone for future combinations, particularly with anti-plasma-cell immunotherapy, that will further improve response rates and outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The treatment of relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in children is challenging and new treatment options are needed. Bortezomib is a proteasome inhibitor with activity in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Adding bortezomib to standard reinduction chemotherapy in relapsed and refractory pediatric ALL has produced very good response rates in prior studies. METHODS We evaluated bortezomib in combination with reinduction therapy (ALL R3) in 10 children with relapsed or refractory ALL. Bortezomib (1.3 mg/m2 /dose) was administered to patients on days 1, 4, 8, and 11. In addition, patients received mitoxantrone, dexamethasone, pegaspargase, vincristine, and intrathecal methotrexate over 4 weeks. RESULTS Of the 10 patients, eight (80%) achieved a complete remission (CR) or complete remission with incomplete recovery (CRi). Of the patients in CR, two had undetectable minimal residual disease by flow cytometry (<0.01%). Five patients were subsequently treated with a stem cell transplant. All eight patients that achieved CR or CRi eventually relapsed. One patient remains alive following treatment with tisagenlecleucel after relapse. Grade 3 or higher infections occurred in four out of 10 patients, and other toxicities commonly associated with bortezomib were not seen. CONCLUSIONS In children with relapsed or refractory ALL, the addition of bortezomib to reinduction chemotherapy that includes mitoxantrone produces a complete response in the majority of cases and does not lead to excessive toxicity.

Abstract
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) can be associated with all connective tissue diseases and is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. The management of connective tissue disease-interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) is challenging due substantial heterogeneity in disease behaviour and paucity of controlled clinical trials to guide treating clinicians. Not all patients require treatment, and the decision to treat needs to be individualised based on a patient's observed disease behaviour, baseline and longitudinal lung function measurements, extent of lung involvement on radiology and patient factors including age, co-morbidities and personal preference. If indicated, treatment of the CTD-ILD is largely with immunomodulation, with the aim to prevent progression of the ILD before further irreversible lung injury and disability occurs. Corticosteroids, cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil and azathioprine are the most common immunosuppressive agents currently used to treat CTD-ILD, demonstrating stability of lung function in case series and a small number of randomised controlled trials in ILD associated with systemic sclerosis. Biological and non-biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs, and the anti-fibrotics nintedanib and pirfenidone, have revolutionised the treatment of connective tissue diseases and idiopathic ILD, respectively. Furthermore, anti-fibrotics have recently demonstrated safety and efficacy in ILD associated with systemic sclerosis. There remains a critical unmet need to clarify when and in whom to initiate treatment, and which agent(s) to utilise to achieve optimal outcomes for CTD-ILD patients whilst minimising harms through prospective multicentre trials. This review highlights the challenges faced when treating patients with CTD-ILD and summarises available evidence for current, emerging and novel therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Scleromyxedema is a progressive, systemic connective tissue disorder characterized by fibro-mucous skin lesions and increased serum monoclonal immunoglobulin levels. Pulmonary involvement occurs in a subset of patients, though the overall prevalence of pulmonary lesions in scleromyxedema is unknown. Since pulmonary hypertension presumably occurs in these patients due to disease progression and development of additional conditions, treatment of the underlying plasma cell dyscrasia and connective tissue disorder may improve pulmonary hypertension symptoms. CASE PRESENTATION An elderly patient with scleromyxedema developed pulmonary hypertension refractory to vasodilator and diuretic therapy and subsequently multiple myeloma that responded to a combination therapy of bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone treatment. CONCLUSIONS Treatment of the underlying disease(s) that contributed to pulmonary hypertension development with anti-neoplastic agents like bortezomib may improve cardiopulmonary symptoms secondary to reducing abnormal blood cell counts and paraprotein levels.

Abstract
Outcomes of children treated for relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) remain poor. Bortezomib (BZM), a proteasome inhibitor, has shown promising activity against lymphoid malignancies. We conducted a phase I study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multidrug chemotherapy including BZM in Japanese children with relapsed ALL. Three of five children with relapsed ALL enrolled in the study between November 2014 and April 2016 were evaluated. BZM (1.3 mg/m2) was administered on days 8, 11, 15, and 18 of multidrug induction chemotherapy. Pharmacokinetic studies were performed. Age at study entry was 5, 7, and 7 years old, respectively. Two patients had hyperdiploid B-precursor ALL, and one had T cell ALL. Although all patients experienced grade 3-4 hematologic toxicity and grade 3 elevation of aminotransferases, no dose-limiting toxicities were observed. The maximum tolerated dose was defined as 1.3 mg/m2. Peripheral neuropathy and respiratory complications were not observed. Complete remission was achieved in all three patients. The mean maximum plasma concentration and area under the concentration-time curve was 74.0 ng/mL and 73.9 ng h/mL, respectively. Thus, adding BZM to 5-drug induction chemotherapy appears safe and well-tolerated in Japanese children with relapsed ALL.

Assessment of Drug-Induced Toxicity Biomarkers in the Brain Microphysiological System (MPS) Using Targeted and Untargeted Molecular Profiling. Front Big Data 2019; 2:23.

Abstract
Early assessment of adverse drug effects in humans is critical to avoid long-lasting harm. However, current approaches for early detection of adverse effects still lack predictive and organ-specific biomarkers to evaluate undesired responses in humans. Microphysiological systems (MPSs) are in vitro representations of human tissues and provide organ-specific translational insights for physiological processes. In this study, a brain MPS was utilized to assess molecular signatures of neurotoxic and non-neurotoxic compounds using targeted and untargeted molecular approaches. The brain MPS comprising of human embryonic stem (ES) cell-derived neural progenitor cells seeded on three-dimensional (3D), chemically defined, polyethylene glycol hydrogels was treated with the neurotoxic drug, bortezomib and the non-neurotoxic drug, tamoxifen over 14-days. Possible toxic effects were monitored with human N-acetylaspartic acid (NAA) kinetics, which correlates the neuronal function/health and DJ-1/PARK7, an oxidative stress biomarker. Changes in NAA levels were observed as early as 2-days post-bortezomib treatment, while onset detection of oxidative stress (DJ-1) was delayed until 4-days post-treatment. Separately, the untargeted extracellular metabolomics approach revealed distinct fingerprints 2-days post-bortezomib treatment as perturbations in cysteine and glycerophospholipid metabolic pathways. These results suggest accumulation of reactive oxygen species associated with oxidative stress, and disruption of membrane structure and integrity. The NAA response was strongly correlated with changes in a subset of the detected metabolites at the same time point 2-days post-treatment. Moreover, these metabolite changes correlated strongly with DJ-1 levels measured at the later time point (4-days post-treatment). This suggests that early cellular metabolic dysfunction leads to later DJ-1 leakage and cell death, and that early measurement of this subset of metabolites could predict the later occurrence of cell death. While the approach demonstrated here provides an individual case study for proof of concept, we suggest that this approach can be extended for preclinical toxicity screening and biomarker discovery studies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chemotherapy and radiation therapy are two mainstream strategies applied in the treatment of cancer that is not operable. Patients with hematological or solid tumor malignancies substantially benefit from chemotherapeutic drugs and/or ionizing radiation delivered to the site of malignancy. However, considerable adverse effects, including lung inflammation and fibrosis, are associated with the use of these treatment modalities. Areas covered: As we move toward the era of precision health, we are compelled to understand the molecular basis of chemoradiation-induced pathological lung remodeling and to develop effective treatment strategies that mitigate the development of chronic lung disease (i.e. fibrosis) in cancer patients. The review discusses chemotherapeutic agents that are reported to induce or associate with acute and/or chronic lung injury. Expert commentary: There is a need to molecularly understand how chemotherapeutic drugs induce or associate with respiratory toxicities and whether such characteristics are inherently related to their antitumor effect or are collateral. Once such mechanisms have been identified and/or fully characterized, they may be able to guide disease-management decisions including effective intervention strategies for the adverse effects. In the meantime, radiation oncologists should be judicious on the dose of radiation delivered to the lungs, the volume of lung irradiated, and concurrent use of chemotherapeutic drugs.

Abstract
Introduction This subgroup analysis of the LYM-3002 Phase III study (NCT00722137) investigated whether substituting bortezomib for vincristine in frontline R-CHOP (rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) therapy could improve outcomes in East Asian patients with newly diagnosed mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL). Materials and methods A total of 121 East Asian patients from China, Taiwan, Japan, and the Republic of Korea with stage II–IV MCL who were ineligible or not considered for stem-cell transplantation were enrolled to six to eight 21-day cycles of R-CHOP or VR-CAP (R-CHOP with bortezomib replacing vincristine). Results The primary end point was progression-free survival. After a median follow-up of 42.4 months, median progression-free survival in East Asian patients was 13.9 (R-CHOP) versus 28.6 (VR-CAP) months (HR 0.7, P=0.157; 43% improvement with VR-CAP). Secondary end points (R-CHOP vs VR-CAP), including complete response rate (47% vs 63%), duration of complete response (median 16.6 vs 46.7 months), and treatment-free interval (median 21 vs 46.5 months), were improved with VR-CAP. VR-CAP was associated with increased but manageable toxicity. The most frequent adverse events were hematologic toxicities. Conclusion VR-CAP was effective in East Asian patients with newly diagnosed MCL, and could be considered for patients in whom stem-cell transplantation is not an option.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary complications are frequent in haematologic patients. METHOD This review article summarizes the outcome of a discussion that took place during an expert meeting on the subject of pulmonary infiltrates. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The most common causes of pulmonary infiltrates in haematologic patients are bacterial infections. Viral infections are subject to relevant seasonal variations, but they may also cause an important proportion of pulmonary infiltrates. Microbiological examination of respiratory tract material (if possible, bronchoalveolar lavage, BAL) is the most important diagnostic procedure. Particularly in the case of prolonged (> 7 days) neutropenia, the likelihood of infiltrates being caused by fungal infections increases. For a differential diagnosis, however, also non-infectious causes, e.g. drug-induced infiltrates, have to be taken into consideration. The diagnostic workup, however, should not delay a timely start of an adequate antimicrobial therapy.

Abstract
Background Primary malignant pleural effusion has been reported in about 134 cases of multiple myeloma (MM). Associated pleural effusions in cases of MM portend a poor prognosis and identifying them is highly relevant. Reported is the case of a man diagnosed with MM who developed primary myelomatous pleural effusion in the setting of multiple relapses and subsequent mortality within 2 months of the pleural effusion diagnosis. Presentation A 61-year-old African American man was diagnosed with MM in 2011. He received induction therapy of lenalidomide and dexamethasone and an autologous stem cell transplant in 2012. Over the next 5 years, the patient went through alternating periods of remission and relapse that were treated with two rounds of thoracic spine radiation therapy and chemotherapeutic agents. In September 2017, the patient presented with worsening dyspnea and was found to have pleural effusion. Fluid analysis showed plasma cell dyscrasia. Fluid drainage was performed, then the patient was discharged after 1 week which was followed by rapid re-accumulation of fluid and rehospitalization about 10 days after discharge. The patient passed away a few weeks after the second admission. Conclusion Pleural effusion carries a differential diagnosis which may include malignancy but is commonly thought to be less specific to multiple myeloma but should still remain in the differential diagnosis. To our knowledge, this is the first case of myelomatous pleural effusion (MPE) that was reported after multiple relapses of MM. MPE is a very rare complication of MM, and its presence is a strong indicator of imminent mortality and need for comfort care in case of multiple relapses. End-stage pleural effusion in MM in the setting of proteasome inhibitor adds more therapeutic and diagnostic challenges.

Abstract
Pulmonary chronic graft-versus-host disease (p-CGVHD) following allogeneic HSCT is devastating with limited proven treatments. Although sporadically associated with pulmonary toxicity, the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib may be efficacious in p-CGVHD. We sought to establish safety and tolerability of bortezomib in pilot, open-label trial of patients with p-CGVHD. The primary endpoint was adverse events. Efficacy was assessed by comparing FEV1 decline prior to p-CGVHD diagnosis to during the bortezomib treatment period. The impact on pulmonary function testing of prior long-term bortezomib treatment in multiple myeloma (MM) patients was also assessed as a safety analysis. Seventeen patients enrolled in the pilot study with a mean time to p-CGVHD diagnosis of 3.36 years (±1.88 years). Bortezomib was well tolerated without early dropouts. The median FEV1 decline prior to the diagnosis of p-CGVHD was -1.06%/month (-5.36, -0.33) and during treatment was -0.25%/month (-9.42, 3.52). In the safety study, there was no significant difference in any PFT parameter between 73 patients who received bortezomib and 68 patients who did not for MM. Thus, we conclude that bortezomib has acceptable safety and tolerability in patients with compromised pulmonary function. The efficacy of proteosomal inhibition should be assessed in a large trial of chronic p-CGVHD patients.

Abstract
Background Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) remains the standard of care for younger patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Currently, high-dose melphalan (HDM) is recommended as conditioning regimen before AHSCT. Preclinical data suggest that combining bortezomib and melphalan has synergistic effect against multiple myeloma cells. Bortezomib and HDM (Bor-HDM) combination as conditioning regimen has been investigated by many other investigators. Objective In this retrospective study, we aimed to compare transplant-related toxicities and hematologic recovery of HDM and Bor-HDM conditioning regimens. Method We retrospectively evaluated hematologic recovery and toxicity profile in patients with MM who received AHSCT with either HDM ( n = 114) or Bor-HDM ( n = 53) conditioning regimen. Results Nonhematologic toxicities were comparable between HDM and Bor-HDM conditioning regimen, except mucositis and diarrhea being more frequent in the Bor-HDM group. Neutrophil and platelet engraftment time and duration of hospital stay were significantly shorter for HDM regimen. Conclusions In this retrospective analysis, we observed engraftment kinetics and duration of hospitalization were significantly worse in Bor-HDM conditioning regimen with manageable toxicities. Randomized studies are needed to further compare Bor- HDM regimen to HDM in terms of response rates, toxicities, and transplant-related mortality.

Abstract
Bortezomib has been shown to be effective and well-tolerated in patients with refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in the Therapeutic Advances in Childhood Leukemia trial. However, the safety and efficacy of bortezomib have not been evaluated in Japanese pediatric patients. Here, we report the results of a clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety of bortezomib combined with induction chemotherapy in Japanese children with refractory ALL. A total of six patients with B-precursor ALL were enrolled in this study. Four-dose bortezomib (1.3 mg/m2/dose) combined with two standard induction chemotherapies was used. Prolonged pancytopenia (grade 4) was observed in all patients. Four of the six patients developed severe infectious complications. Peripheral neuropathy (grade 2) occurred in five patients. The individual plasma bortezomib concentration-time profiles were not related to toxicity and efficacy. Five patients were evaluable for response, and four patients achieved complete response (CR) or CR without platelet recovery (80%). In conclusion, four-dose bortezomib (1.3 mg/m2/dose) combined with standard re-induction chemotherapy was associated with a high risk of infectious complications induced by prolonged neutropenia, although high efficacy has been achieved for Japanese pediatric patients with refractory ALL. Attention must be given to severe infectious complications when performing re-induction chemotherapy including bortezomib.

Abstract
Achieving complete remission (CR) in childhood relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is a difficult task. Bortezomib, a proteasome inhibitor, has in vitro activity against ALL blasts. A phase I-II trial, reported by the Therapeutic Advances in Childhood Leukaemia and Lymphoma (TACL) consortium, demonstrated that bortezomib with chemotherapy has acceptable toxicity and remarkable activity in patients with relapsed ALL failing 2-3 previous regimens. We evaluated bortezomib in combination with chemotherapy in 30 and 7 children with B-cell precursor (BCP) and T-cell ALL, respectively. Bortezomib (1·3 mg/m2 /dose) was administered intravenously on days 1, 4, 8, and 11. Chemotherapy agents were the same as those used in the TACL trial, consisting of dexamethasone, doxorubicin, vincristine and pegylated asparaginase. Three patients (8·1%) died due to infections. Twenty-seven patients (72·9%) achieved CR or CR with incomplete platelet recovery (CRp). Fourteen had minimal residual disease (MRD) lower than 0·1%. Twenty-two of 30 BCP-ALL patients (73·3%) and 5/7 patients (71%) with T-cell ALL achieved CR/CRp. The 2-year overall survival (OS) is 31·3%; CR/CRp patients with an MRD response had a remarkable 2-year OS of 68·4%. These data confirm that the combination of bortezomib with chemotherapy is a suitable/effective option for childhood relapsed/refractory ALL.

Abstract
Severe acute lung injury is a rare but life-threatening complication associated with bortezomib. We report a patient with multiple myeloma who developed a severe diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) immediately after the first bortezomib administration. The patient was suspected to have pulmonary involvement of myeloma, which caused DAH after rapidly eradicating myeloma cells in the lungs with bortezomib. Rechallenge with bortezomib was performed without recurrent DAH. In patients with multiple myeloma who manifest abnormal pulmonary shadow, we should be aware of early-onset severe DAH after bortezomib administration, which might be due to pulmonary involvement of myeloma cells.

Abstract
Bortezomib was the first antineoplastic proteasome inhibitor and is currently indicated for the treatment of hematologic malignancies including multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma. This report describes a 57-year-old patient with light chain (primary) amyloidosis receiving weekly subcutaneous bortezomib injections who presented with recurrent hypoxemia and interstitial pneumonitis. Following the failure of conventional therapy, the patient responded rapidly to high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone. Oxygen therapy was able to be weaned off within three days and he was able to be discharged to home in stable condition, with follow-up computed tomography showing improving lung lesions. Bortezomib is known to rarely cause acute lung injury, but this complication has not been previously described in the setting of amyloidosis. Clinicians should be aware of potentially severe pulmonary adverse effects in all patients treated with bortezomib.

Abstract
Bortezomib is widely used in treatment of multiple myeloma. In recent years, severe bortezomib-induced lung injury has been reported. The clinical course is generally characterized with fever and dyspnea, followed by respiratory failure with pulmonary infiltrates. Herein, we report a 57-year-old man with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma admitted with dyspnea, fever, and hypotension on the third day of the first dose of bortezomib therapy. He had bilateral jugular venous distention, crackles at the bases of the lungs and hepatomegaly. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed acute pulmonary hypertension (PH) with an estimated pressure of 70 mm Hg. The perfusion scintigraphy ruled out pulmonary embolism, and microbiological examination was negative. On his course, fever, dyspnea, hypoxia, and pulmonary vascular pressure subsided rapidly. The sudden onset of PH and its rapid decrement without any treatment suggests bortezomib as the underlying cause. Subsequently, the patient did not respond to vincristine-doxorubicin-dexamethasone regimen and thalidomide. Bortezomib treatment was repeated, and no pulmonary adverse reactions occurred. Follow-up echocardiographies revealed pulmonary arterial pressures to be maximally of 35 mm Hg. To our knowledge, this is the first case of acute PH after front-line bortezomib therapy. In this report, we review bortezomib-related pulmonary complications in the literature and possible underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
The proteasome inhibitor bortezomib is indicated for use in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) patients. The most common side effects are neurological and gastrointestinal, while severe pulmonary complications are rarely described. The present study reports the case of a 62-year-old man with immunoglobulin (Ig)G-type MM who was treated with bortezomib, thalidomide and dexamethasone. Subsequent to the administration of chemotherapy, the patient developed an acute respiratory distress syndrome. High-resolution computed tomography of the chest showed bilateral diffuse alveolar infiltrations and multiple subpleural lesions. A diagnosis of bortezomib-induced severe pulmonary complications was formed. Systemic corticosteroid therapy led to a rapid improvement in clinical conditions and radiological findings. In addition, the present study reviewed the characteristics, including medical history, clinical manifestations, treatment strategies and outcomes, of all 16 MM patients with bortezomib-induced severe pulmonary complications reported previously in Pubmed. It was indicated that patients who were male, of IgG type, with a relapse status and a previous history of auto-PBSCT had a higher possibility of developing bortezomib-induced severe pulmonary complications. Additionally, a relatively low dose rather than a high dose of corticosteroids could obtain a better outcome.

Abstract
Patients treated for a hematologic malignancy are at risk for treatment-related complications. As the goal of therapy is frequently curative, treatments are especially intensive and long-term toxicity is common. Chemotherapy and radiation are associated with increased risk for cardiac and pulmonary disease, endocrine disorders, infertility, sexual dysfunction, second cancers, and psychosocial distress. The risk for each complication is dictated by patient characteristics including age, co-morbidities, and genetic predispositions, as well as the specifics of therapy. Survivors of pediatric cancers and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation have unique risks due to vulnerable age at time of toxic exposure and ongoing immune dysfunction, respectively.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Carfilzomib (Kyprolis™) is a second-generation proteasome inhibitor for the treatment of relapsing multiple myeloma (MM). In 2012, carfilzomib was approved by Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of patients with relapsed MM who had received at least two prior therapies. We present a case of fatal pulmonary toxicity presumed secondary to carfilzomib. CLINICAL PRESENTATION A 61-year-old male was initially diagnosed with MM in 2003 for which he received multiple treatments. In 2013, he was started on carfilzomib for relapsing MM. After 24 h, the patient developed an acute respiratory distress syndrome for which he needed mechanical ventilation. One week later, patient developed diffuse alveolar hemorrhage and despite aggressive supportive care, the patient died after three weeks. DISCUSSION The temporal relationship between the first exposure to carfilzomib and development of symptoms, and the exclusion of other possible etiologies, leads us to believe that our patient's lung toxicity is a possible adverse reaction to carfilzomib. To the best of our knowledge, there are no previous reports of deaths due to carfilzomib-related pulmonary toxicity.

Abstract
During oncology drug development, it is important that ethnic differences are evaluated to determine the optimal dose and administration schedule in a new region based on the clinical data from other regions. The objective of this study was to explore the possibility of detecting ethnic differences in toxicity during early-phase clinical trials. Data were reviewed from phase I clinical trials for new drug applications conducted in Japan and Western countries. The maximum tolerated doses (MTDs), recommended phase II doses (RP2Ds), and approved doses in Japan were compared with those in Western countries. There were 4 of 28 drugs eligible for analysis that showed differences in MTDs or RP2Ds between Japanese and Western patients. Differences in MTDs or RP2Ds in 2 phase I trials were associated with ethnic differences in toxicity. It may be worthwhile to evaluate ethnic differences in toxicity during early-phase clinical trials for oncology drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This Phase 2 study tested the tolerability and efficacy of bortezomib combined with reinduction chemotherapy for pediatric patients with relapsed, refractory or secondary acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Correlative studies measured putative AML leukemia initiating cells (AML-LIC) before and after treatment. PROCEDURE Patients with <400 mg/m(2) prior anthracycline received bortezomib combined with idarubicin (12 mg/m(2) days 1-3) and low-dose cytarabine (100 mg/m(2) days 1-7) (Arm A). Patients with ≥400 mg/m(2) prior anthracycline received bortezomib with etoposide (100 mg/m(2) on days 1-5) and high-dose cytarabine (1 g/m(2) every 12 hours for 10 doses) (Arm B). RESULTS Forty-six patients were treated with 58 bortezomib-containing cycles. The dose finding phase of Arm B established the recommended Phase 2 dose of bortezomib at 1.3 mg/m(2) on days 1, 4, and 8 with Arm B chemotherapy. Both arms were closed after failure to meet predetermined efficacy thresholds during the first stage of the two-stage design. The complete response (CR + CRp) rates were 29% for Arm A and 43% for Arm B. Counting additional CRi responses (CR with incomplete neutrophil recovery), the overall CR rates were 57% for Arm A and 48% for Arm B. The 2-year overall survival (OS) was 39 ± 15%. Correlative studies showed that LIC depletion after the first cycle was associated with clinical response. CONCLUSION Bortezomib is tolerable when added to chemotherapy regimens for relapsed pediatric AML, but the regimens did not exceed preset minimum response criteria to allow continued accrual. This study also suggests that AML-LIC depletion has prognostic value.

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 incidence of multiple myeloma (MM) is known to be variable according to ethnicity. However, the differences in clinical characteristics between ethnic groups are not well-defined. In Asian countries, although the incidence of MM has been lower than that of Western countries, there is growing evidence that MM is increasing rapidly. The Asian Myeloma Network decided to initiate the first multinational project to describe the clinical characteristics of MM and the clinical practices in Asia. Data were retrospectively collected from 23 centers in 7 countries and regions. The clinical characteristics at diagnosis, survival rates and initial treatment of 3,405 symptomatic MM patients were described. Median age was 62 years (range, 19-106), with 55.6% of being male. Median overall survival (OS) was 47 months (95% CI 44.0-50.0). Stem cell transplantation was performed in 666 patients who showed better survival rates (79 vs. 41 months, P < 0.001). The first-line treatments of 2,970 patients were analyzed. The overall response rate was 71% including very good partial response or better in 31% of the 2,660 patients those were able to be evaluated. New drugs including bortezomib, thalidomide, and lenalidomide were used in 36% of 2,970 patients and affected OS when used as a first-line treatment.

Modified bortezomib, adriamycin and dexamethasone (PAD) regimen in advanced multiple myeloma. Pathol Oncol Res 2014; 20:987-95.

Abstract
The PAD regime, composed of bortezomib, adriamycin and dexamethasone, improves the outcomes of patients with advanced multiple myeloma (MM), but at the same time produces high frequency of serious toxic side effects. For the first time, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of a bortezomib-dose-reduced PAD regime in the treatment of relapsed/refractory MM in this clinical study. Forty-five patients were treated with two to six 21-day cycles of PAD, comprising bortezomib at 1.3 mg/m(2) (P1AD, n = 21) or 1.0 mg/m(2) (P2AD, n = 24) (days 1, 4, 8, 11), adriamycin at 9 mg/m(2) (days 1-4) and dexamethasone at 40 mg/day (days 1-4). Overall, 36 patients (80 %) showed at least partial remission (PR), in which 9 cases (20 %) showed complete remission (CR) and 10 cases (22 %) showed very good partial remission (VGPR). The efficacy of PAD regimen in advanced MM patients was not related to the traditional prognostic factors. There was no significant difference between P1AD and P2AD in the rates of PR, CR or VGPR, 1.5-year progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) (81 % vs. 79 %, 48 % vs. 38 %, 64 % vs. 59 %, and 85 % vs. 73 %, respectively). However, the grade 3-4 toxic effects, including thrombocytopenia (13 % vs. 38 %), peripheral neuropathy (8 % vs. 33 %) and 3-4 grade gastrointestinal reaction (13 % vs. 43 %), were markedly inhibited after P2AD compared to P1AD (P < 0.05). The bortezomib-dose-reduced PAD regime reduced the incidence of adverse reactions without affecting the treatment efficacy in patients with advanced MM.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This paper presents three probable cases of pneumocystis pneumonia in patients receiving bortezomib therapy for multiple myeloma. PRESENTATION OF CASES Three patients receiving bortezomib therapy for multiple myeloma presented with dyspnoea, non-productive cough, and fevers. These patients deteriorated despite receiving broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy with piperacillin + tazobactam and azithromycin and an assortment of other antimicrobials but promptly responded to sulfamethoxazole + trimethoprim therapy. Only one of the patients exhibited a positive Pneumocystis jirovecii PCR test but testing was sub-optimal. DISCUSSION Although only one of the patients exhibited a positive sputum P. jirovecii PCR test, the diagnosis of PCP in these three patients is supported by their; clinical and radiological features consistent with PCP, deterioration despite receiving broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy, and prompt responses to sulfamethoxazole + trimethoprim therapy. In the patients with negative P. jirovecii PCR bronchoalveolar lavage specimens were not obtained as these patients were deemed too high risk to undergo the procedure. Although the three patients were also receiving dexamethasone therapy, the doses and durations were at the threshold of those expected to cause PCP. CONCLUSION 26S proteosome inhibitor therapy for multiple myeloma may be a risk factor for PCP and clinicians should adopt a high level of suspicion for PCP in patients receiving these medications until conclusive evidence is obtained.

Abstract
Renal failure is a common manifestation of multiple myeloma (MM). Bortezomib is primarily metabolized by cytochrome p450 isoforms. It also has a cytochrome-independent metabolism by excretion through the bile and kidney. Based on our observations, we aimed to explore the efficacy and toxicity profiles of bortezomib in 56 patients with MM, 24 of which had moderate to severe renal failure. Overall response and complete response, as well as very good partial response rates, were comparable between patients with normal renal functions and renal impairment. The median overall survivals for patients with estimated glomerular filtration rates of <60 and ≥60 ml/minute were similar. Although there was a tendency for shorter overall survival along lower estimated glomerular filtration rates, this difference did not reach a statistical significance. Overall and severe adverse events, and dose modification and treatment discontinuation rates were higher in patients with renal impairment. Patients with renal failure had more thrombocytopenia and diarrhea. While thrombocytopenia was mild to moderate and manageable, diarrhea, which led to serious adverse events, was more severe in patients with renal failure who received bortezomib as monotherapy. Bortezomib appears to be active; however, when used alone, it may cause more frequent and severe adverse events in patients with MM and renal failure.

Abstract
Novel agents such as thalidomide, lenalidomide and bortezomib have dramatically changed the treatment paradigm of multiple myeloma (MM). However, it is not clear whether these agents improve the prognosis of elderly patients who have undergone autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT). We retrospectively analyzed the outcome of 318 newly diagnosed patients aged 65–70 years who were treated between January 1, 2004, and December 31, 2009. As initial therapy, 192 patients were treated with conventional chemotherapy,88 with novel agent-containing regimens, 21 with conventional chemotherapy plus auto-SCT and the remaining 17 with novel agents plus auto-SCT. The median progression-free survival was 19.1, 24.5, 26.8 and 35.2 months, respectively, and the 5-year overall survival (OS) was 40, 62, 63 and 87%, respectively. Initial therapy with novel agents (p < 0.001) or auto-SCT (p < 0.02) significantly improved OS compared with the group without these treatment modalities. Salvage therapy with novel agents also significantly improved survival after relapse compared with conventional chemotherapy alone (p < 0.04). In a multivariate analysis, the use of novel agents was an independent prognostic factor significantly associated with extended OS(p < 0.003). These results indicate that novel agents and auto-SCT had a major impact on OS in eligible patients in this subgroup of MM.
