Abstract
APOA-1 is central to the high-density lipoprotein function of reverse cholesterol transport measured by cholesterol efflux capacity. Psoriasis is a systemic inflammatory disease associated with poor cholesterol efflux capacity and accelerated noncalcified coronary burden (NCB) as measured by coronary computed tomographic angiography. In this study, we characterized the relationship between APOA-1, cholesterol efflux capacity, and progression of NCB over 4 years. Consecutively recruited participants with psoriasis underwent coronary computed tomographic angiography for NCB quantification (Medis QAngio, Leiden, The Netherlands) at baseline (n = 310) and at four years (n = 124). Blood was assessed for cardiometabolic biomarkers. The lowest quartile of APOA-1 was associated with cardiometabolic blood markers (insulin, homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance, and cholesterol efflux capacity) and higher NCB (P < 0.001). The low APOA-1 quartile had higher NCB at 4 years (β = -0.36, P = 0.02) in fully adjusted models. Finally, a 10-unit decrease of APOA-1 was associated with a 16% increase in NCB progression over 4 years (OR = 0.83, 95% confidence interval = 0.70-0.99, P = 0.04). In addition to being associated with cardiometabolic disease, low APOA-1 was associated with more NCB over time. These findings show that low APOA-1 is correlated with initiation and progression of coronary artery disease and may have clinical utility in identifying high-risk populations for development of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Recent advances in the understanding of Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) biology have impacted the development of effective novel agents and improved our knowledge of how the genomic background of WM may influence selection of therapy. Consensus Panel 7 (CP7) of the 11th International Workshop on WM was convened to examine the current generation of completed and ongoing clinical trials involving novel agents, consider updated data on WM genomics, and make recommendations on the design and prioritization of future clinical trials. CP7 considers limited duration and novel-novel agent combinations to be the priority for the next generation of clinical trials. Evaluation of MYD88, CXCR4 and TP53 at baseline in the context of clinical trials is crucial. The common chemoimmunotherapy backbones, bendamustine-rituximab (BR) and dexamethasone, rituximab and cyclophosphamide (DRC), may be considered standard-of-care for the frontline comparative studies. Key unanswered questions include the definition of frailty in WM; the importance of attaining a very good partial response or better (≥VGPR), within stipulated time frame, in determining survival outcomes; and the optimal treatment of WM populations with special needs.

Abstract
The consensus panel 2 (CP2) of the 11th International Workshop on Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (IWWM-11) has reviewed and incorporated current data to update the recommendations for treatment approaches in patients with relapsed or refractory WM (RRWM). The key recommendations from IWWM-11 CP2 include: (1) Chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) and/or a covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (cBTKi) strategies are important options; their use should reflect the prior upfront strategy and are subject to their availability. (2) In selecting treatment, biological age, co-morbidities and fitness are important; nature of relapse, disease phenotype and WM-related complications, patient preferences and hematopoietic reserve are also critical factors while the composition of the BM disease and mutational status (MYD88, CXCR4, TP53) should also be noted. (3) The trigger for initiating treatment in RRWM should utilize knowledge of patients' prior disease characteristics to avoid unnecessary delays. (4) Risk factors for cBTKi related toxicities (cardiovascular dysfunction, bleeding risk and concurrent medication) should be addressed when choosing cBTKi. Mutational status (MYD88, CXCR4) may influence the cBTKi efficacy, and the role of TP53 disruptions requires further study) in the event of cBTKi failure dose intensity could be up titrated subject to toxicities. Options after BTKi failure include CIT with a non-cross-reactive regimen to one previously used CIT, addition of anti-CD20 antibody to BTKi, switching to a newer cBTKi or non-covalent BTKi, proteasome inhibitors, BCL-2 inhibitors, and new anti-CD20 combinations are additional options. Clinical trial participation should be encouraged for all patients with RRWM.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Psoriasis is an immune-mediated inflammatory skin condition with an increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI). Elevated bone marrow (BM) and splenic hematopoiesis occurs after MI. In stable patients without chronic inflammation, higher splenic hematopoiesis predicts major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Nevertheless, studies in humans investigating these relationships in states of chronic inflammation on coronary artery disease features associated with MACE are limited.
Purpose
To investigate the relationships between bone marrow and splenic metabolic activity by [18]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT and subclinical cardiovascular disease in psoriasis.
Methods
Healthy participants (N=30) and psoriasis participants (N=210) were age and sex matched. All participants underwent 18FDG PET/CT and CT angiography (Toshiba 320 slice). Coronary artery plaque characteristics were assessed using QAngio CT (Medis, The Netherlands) and lipid rich necrotic core (LRNC) was assessed using vascuCAP (Elucid Bioimaging, Boston, MA). For tissue metabolic activities target-to-background ratio (TBR) was calculated as the ratio of arterial and venous standardized uptake values (SUV).
Results
The psoriasis cohort was middle aged 49.2 (±SD 11.9) years and predominantly male (64%). Those with psoriasis vs. healthy participants had higher BM (1.58 (IQR 1.35–1.89) vs. 1.23 (IQR 1.14–1.35); p<0.001) and splenic (1.40 (IQR 1.21–1.66) vs.1.17 (IQR 1.11–1.26); p<0.001) metabolic activity. After adjustment for cardiovascular risk factors bone marrow metabolic activity was associated with total burden, non-calcified burden (NCB) and LRNC (β=0.36, β=0.39, β=0.26; all p<0.001) respectively. Similar findings were observed for splenic activity (β=0.33, β=0.36, β=0.36; all p<0.001). In ROC analysis, when comparing area under the curve, BM activity better incrementally predicted non-calcified burden and lipid rich necrotic core compared to splenic activity (Figure).
Conclusions
BM and splenic metabolic activity are increased in psoriasis. Both are associated with coronary artery disease but there was a slightly stronger association with BM activity compared to splenic activity, These findings warrant further study to understand immune mechanisms underlying these observations.
Funding Acknowledgement
Type of funding sources: Public grant(s) – National budget only. Main funding source(s): National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute Intramural Research Program in Bethesda, Maryland Figure 1. Median values of NCB and LRNC were used to convert these continuous variables into dichotomous variables such that values ≤ median were designated as 0 and values >median were designated 1. Bone marrow model compared to base model and splenic model added incremental value in predicting NCB (p<0.0001) and LRNC (p=0.0003). Base model: Framingham risk score, lipid treatment, biologic therapy, homeostasis model assessment as an index of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), low density lipoprotein (LDL).

Abstract
Objective Increased left ventricular (LV) mass is an important precursor to heart failure. Inflammation plays an important role in increasing LV mass. However, the contribution of subclinical coronary artery disease (CAD) to the inflammation-LV mass relationship is unknown. In subjects with psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory skin disease, we evaluated if systemic inflammation assessed by plasma glycoprotein A (GlycA) associated with LV mass measured on coronary CT angiography (CCTA). Additionally, we analyzed whether this relationship was mediated by early CAD assessed as noncalcified coronary burden (NCB). Methods We performed an observational longitudinal study of 213 subjects with psoriasis free of known cardiovascular disease, 189 of whom were followed over one year. All participants had GlycA measurements by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and LV mass and NCB quantified by CCTA. Results The cohort had a mean age of 50.3 (±12.9) years and 59% were male. There was moderate psoriasis severity and low cardiovascular risk. LV mass increased by GlycA tertiles [1st tertile:24.6 g/m2.7(3.8), 2nd tertile:25.5 g/m2.7(3.8), 3rd tertile:27.7 g/m2.7(5.5), p<0.001]. Both GlycA (β=0.24, p = 0.001) and NCB (β=0.50, p<0.001) associated with LV mass in models adjusted for age, sex, hypertension, hypertension therapy, lipid therapy, biologic therapy for psoriasis, waist:hip ratio, psoriasis disease duration and severity. In multivariable-adjusted mediation analyses, NCB accounted for 32% of the GlycA-LV mass relationship. Finally, over one year, change in NCB independently associated with change in LV mass (β=0.25, p = 0.002). Conclusions Both systemic inflammation and coronary artery NCB were associated with LV mass beyond cardiovascular risk factors in psoriasis. Furthermore, a substantial proportion of the inflammatory-LV mass relationship was mediated by NCB. These findings underscore the possible contribution of early coronary artery disease to the relationship between systemic inflammation and LV mass.

Abstract
Objective Understand the relationship between abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue (ASAT) and coronary atherosclerosis defined as noncalcified and lipid-rich necrotic core burden in psoriasis. Methods We performed a cross-sectional study of 232 participants (92 women) with psoriasis and without known cardiovascular disease. Participants underwent coronary computed tomography angiography to characterize coronary atherosclerosis burden and low dose abdominal computed tomography to quantify subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue. Fat depot volumes were first adjusted for each participant's BMI (ASATadjBMI). Results In women, there was a positive correlation between ASATadjBMI and systemic inflammation as assessed by hs-C-reactive protein (r=0.30; p=.004) and GlycA (r=0.29; p=.007) as well as total cholesterol (r=0.24; p=.02) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (r=0.22; p=.04). In men, ASATadjBMI correlated with hs-C-reactive protein (r=0.18; p=.04) and insulin resistance (r=0.17; p=.04). In models fully adjusted for traditional cardiovascular risk factors, ASATadjBMI negatively associated with noncalcified and lipid-rich necrotic core burden in men (β= -0.17; p=.03, β= -0.20; p=.03, respectively), but not women (β= -0.06; p=.57, β= 0.09; p=.49, respectively) with psoriasis. Conclusions For a given BMI, ASAT negatively associated with coronary atherosclerosis burden in male participants with psoriasis. The observed sex-specific effects warrant further study of ASAT in states of chronic inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriasis is associated with a heightened risk of cardiovascular disease and higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome. OBJECTIVE Investigate the effect of metabolic syndrome and its factors on early coronary artery disease assessed as noncalcified coronary burden by coronary computed tomography angiography in psoriasis. METHODS This cross-sectional study consisted of 260 participants with psoriasis and coronary computed tomography angiography characterization. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the harmonized International Diabetes Federation criteria. RESULTS Of the 260 participants, 80 had metabolic syndrome (31%). The metabolic syndrome group had a higher burden of cardiometabolic disease, systemic inflammation, noncalcified coronary burden, and high-risk coronary plaque. After adjusting for Framingham risk score, lipid-lowering therapy, and biologic use, metabolic syndrome (β = .31; P < .001) and its individual factors of waist circumference (β = .33; P < .001), triglyceride levels (β = .17; P = .005), blood pressure (β = .18; P = .005), and fasting glucose (β = .17; P = .009) were significantly associated with noncalcified coronary burden. After adjusting for all other metabolic syndrome factors, blood pressure and waist circumference remained significantly associated with noncalcified coronary burden. LIMITATIONS Observational nature with limited ability to control for confounders. CONCLUSIONS In psoriasis, individuals with metabolic syndrome had more cardiovascular disease risk factors, systemic inflammation, and noncalcified coronary burden. Efforts to increase metabolic syndrome awareness in psoriasis should be undertaken to reduce the heightened cardiovascular disease risk.

Abstract
Phenotypic flexibility (reversible phenotypic change) enables organisms to couple internal, ontogenetic responses with external, environmental cues. Phenotypic flexibility also provides organisms with the capacity to buffer stereotypical internal, developmental processes from unpredictable external, ecological events. Echinoids exhibit dramatic phenotypic flexibility in response to variation in exogenous nutrient supplies. The extent to which echinoids display this flexibility has been explored incompletely and research hitherto has been conducted predominantly on larval structures and morphologies. We investigated experimentally the extent to which the primordial juvenile, the developing rudiment, can exhibit the first phase in phenotypic flexibility among individuals. We report for the first time on rudiment regression and complete resorption as a response to starvation during larval development in the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis (O.F. Müller, 1776) and identify a developmental “window of opportunity” within which this can occur. Based on our observations and previous suggestions, we speculate that sea urchin rudiments might provide means of buffering development during unfavorable conditions.

Abstract
The significance of elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) prior to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in multiple myeloma (MM) has not been studied. We analyzed 1111 MM patients who underwent ASCT at Mayo Clinic from 2007 to 2015. A total of 840 patients (76%) received early ASCT (⩽12 months from diagnosis) and 271 patients (24%) received delayed ASCT (>12 months from diagnosis). Elevated CRP (> upper normal limit (8 mg/L)) was seen in 14% and 22% of patients undergoing early and delayed ASCT, respectively (P=0.003). There was no correlation of CRP with pre-transplant response, bone marrow plasma cell percentage or labeling index. Patients with an elevated CRP had a higher likelihood of having circulating plasma cells prior to ASCT (33 vs 19%; P<0.001). In the early ASCT cohort, the median overall survival (OS) in patients with normal and elevated CRP was not reached and 91 months respectively (P=0.011). In the delayed ASCT cohort, the median OS in respective groups were 73 and 30 months respectively (P<0.001), with elevated CRP being an independent prognostic marker on multivariate analysis (hazard ratio 2.0; 95% confidence interval, 1.0-3.8; P=0.045). Elevated pre-transplant CRP identifies a high-risk population especially in patients undergoing delayed ASCT and should be incorporated in the pre-transplant evaluation.

Despite therapeutic advances, multiple myeloma remains incurable, with limited options for patients with refractory disease. We conducted a large, multi-cohort clinical trial testing various doses and treatment schedules of pomalidomide and dexamethasone (Pom/dex) in patients with refractory multiple myeloma. Overall, 345 patients were enrolled to six cohorts based on number and type of prior lines of therapy, pomalidomide dose and schedule. Median prior lines of therapy were three with near universal prior exposure to proteasome inhibitors and/or immunomodulatory drugs. A confirmed response rate of 35% was noted for all cohorts (range 23-65%) with higher responses in cohorts with fewer prior lines of therapy. Median time to confirmed response was ⩽2 months and the longest progression-free survival and overall survival seen in any cohort were 13.1 and 47.9 months, respectively. Observed adverse reactions were as expected, with myelosuppression and fatigue being the most common hematologic and non-hematologic adverse events (AEs), respectively. Longer durations of treatment and response, higher response rates and fewer AEs were noted with the 2 mg pomalidomide dose. This is the longest follow-up data for Pom/dex in refractory multiple myeloma and will help shape the real-world utilization of this regimen.

Abstract
Post-transplant maintenance is widely used in multiple myeloma (MM); however, there is a lack of data on real-world outcomes. We have analyzed 577 patients with newly diagnosed MM undergoing early auto-transplantation between 2010 and 2015. A total of 341, 132 and 104 patients received no, lenalidomide (Len) or bortezomib (Bort) maintenance, respectively. Patients receiving Len or Bort maintenance had a higher incidence of high-risk cytogenetics by fluorescence in situ hybridization (31% (Len) vs 58% (Bort) vs 8% (No); P<0.001). Len maintenance led to a superior progression-free survival (PFS) compared with no maintenance (median, 37 vs 28 months, respectively; P=0.002; adjusted hazard ratio 0.48 (95% CI, 0.35-0.66)), including in subgroups with ISS stage III disease (median, 40 vs 24 months; P=0.008) and high-risk cytogenetics (median, 27 vs 16 months; P=0.032). Bort maintenance did not confer PFS benefit for the entire cohort, but improved PFS in the high-risk cytogenetic subgroup (median, 28 vs 16 months; P=0.035). Discontinuation due to toxicity was seen in 17 and 7% of patients receiving Len or Bort maintenance, respectively. Our results indicate that post-transplant maintenance with Len or Bort is well tolerated in clinical practice and improves PFS in high-risk subgroups of MM patients.

Abstract
Little is known about the impact of multiple myeloma (MM) treatment on uninvolved immunoglobulins (Ig). We identified 448 patients who received high-dose dexamethasone (HD-DEX), lenalidomide and dexamethasone (RD), bortezomib and dexamethasone (VD), bortezomib, cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone (VCD) or bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRD) for newly diagnosed MM at our institution between 2000 and 2013, and who had available data on absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and quantitative uninvolved Ig at baseline and at the end of four cycles of therapy. Changes in ALC and uninvolved Ig were significantly different across treatments, with VCD and HD-DEX producing reductions in uninvolved Ig, and RD, VD and VRD leading to increases in uninvolved Ig. In addition, treatment with RD, VD and VRD was independently associated with higher odds of achieving a ⩾25% increase in or normalization of the primary uninvolved Ig on multivariate analysis. Although achievement of a humoral response in the primary uninvolved Ig was associated with a higher odds of achieving VGPR or better after four cycles of therapy, it was not associated with improved overall survival. These data highlight the different mechanisms of action of MM drugs and point toward a possible role for the use of VCD in treating antibody-mediated autoimmune disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on the effect of systemic immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis) on thyroid function are limited. OBJECTIVE To assess the prevalence of hypothyroidism in AL amyloidosis patients and determine its predictors. METHODS 1142 newly diagnosed AL amyloidosis patients were grouped based on the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) measurement at diagnosis: hypothyroid group (TSH above upper normal reference; >5 mIU L-1 ; n = 217, 19% of study participants) and euthyroid group (n = 925, 81%). Predictors for hypothyroidism were assessed in a binary multivariate model. Survival between groups was compared using the log-rank test and a multivariate analysis. RESULTS Patients with hypothyroidism were older, more likely to present with renal and hepatic involvement and had a higher light chain burden compared to patients in the euthyroid group. Higher proteinuria in patients with renal involvement and lower albumin in patients with hepatic involvement were associated with hypothyroidism. In a binary logistic regression model, age ≥65 years, female sex, renal involvement, hepatic involvement, kappa light chain restriction and amiodarone use were independently associated with hypothyroidism. Ninety-three per cent of patients in the hypothyroid group with free thyroxine measurement had normal values, consistent with subclinical hypothyroidism. Patients in the hypothyroid group had a shorter survival compared to patients in the euthyroid group (4-year survival 36% vs 43%; P = 0.008), a difference that was maintained in a multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION A significant proportion of patients with AL amyloidosis present with hypothyroidism, predominantly subclinical, which carries a survival disadvantage. Routine assessment of TSH in these patients is warranted.

Abstract
The impact of circulating plasma cells (CPCs) prior to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for multiple myeloma has not been defined in the novel agent era. We evaluated the impact of pre-transplant CPCs, detected by six-color flow cytometry in patients undergoing early ASCT on post-transplant response, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). CPCs were detected in 162 out of 840 (19.3%) patients, with the median number of CPCs being 58 per 150 000 events. Ninety-nine percent of patients had received proteasome inhibitor and/or immunomodulator-based induction. The incidence of post-transplant stringent complete response (sCR) in the subgroups with and without CPCs was 15% and 38%, respectively, (P<0.001). The median PFS in the subgroups with and without CPCs was 15.1 (95% confidence interval (CI), 12.5-17.8) and 29.6 months (95% CI, 26.2-32.8), respectively, and the median OS was 41.0 months (95% CI, 32.6-58.2) and not reached (NR) (95% CI, 99.1-NR), respectively, (P<0.001 for both). On multivariate analysis for OS, factors independently predictive of mortality were the presence of CPCs (hazard ratio (HR) 2.5; 95% CI, 1.8-3.6; P<0.001) and sCR post transplant (HR 0.4; 95% CI, 0.2-0.6; P<0.001). Presence of CPCs prior to transplant has a high prognostic impact and should be prospectively validated in clinical trials.

Abstract
AIM AND OBJECTIVES To analyze the relationship between subjective and objective evaluations of pre-treatment posed smiles in patients with facial asymmetry and to assess the influence of dentofacial structures involved in asymmetry on the perception of smile attractiveness. SAMPLE Thirty-five patients (25 males and 10 females) between 18 and 25 years of age with facial asymmetry were selected. MATERIALS AND METHODS Pre-treatment clinical photographs of posed smiles were subjectively evaluated by a panel of 20 orthodontists, 20 oral surgeons, and 20 laypersons. A customized Smile Mesh program was used for objective evaluation of the same smiles. Direct comparison among three smile groups (unattractive, slightly attractive, and attractive) for different Smile Mesh measurements was carried out using two-way anova test. Additionally, linear regression was performed to evaluate whether these measurements could predict the attractiveness of captured smiles. RESULTS Patients with 'slightly attractive' smiles had a significantly greater distance between the incisal margin of the maxillary central incisor and the lower lip during smiling. The Smile Index was significantly greater in attractive smiles. However, based on the coefficients of linear regression, no objectively gathered measurement could predict smile attractiveness. CONCLUSIONS Attractiveness or unattractiveness of smiles in patients with facial asymmetry could not be predicted by any measurement of Smile Mesh. The presence of facial asymmetry did not significantly influence the perception of smile esthetics.

Abstract
We compared overall survival (OS) of 1017 patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) who were treated with different novel agent-based induction regimens and who underwent early autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). Subgroups were defined by type of induction therapy: cyclophosphamide-bortezomib-dexamethasone (CyBorD; n=193), bortezomib-dexamethasone (Vd; n=64), lenalidomide-dexamethasone (Rd; n=251), bortezomib-lenalidomide-dexamethasone (VRd; n=126), thalidomide-dexamethasone (Td; n=155) and vincristine-doxorubicin-dexamethasone or dexamethasone alone (VAD/Dex; n=228). The median follow-up of the surviving patients was 66.7 months. The 5-year OS rates with CyBorD, Vd, Rd, VRd, Td and VAD/Dex were 79.2%, 72.3%, 79.2%, 79.0%, 57.4% and 63.4%, respectively (log-rank, P<0.001). In a multivariate analysis, after controlling for important patient and disease variables, VRd had a superior OS compared with CyBorD (hazard ratio (HR), 0.32; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.10-0.88; P=0.03) and Vd (HR, 0.16; 95% CI, 0.04-0.52; P=0.002). In conclusion, our study demonstrates that among patients completing induction therapy and continuing to early transplant, VRd induction leads to improved OS compared with CyBorD and Vd regimens.

Abstract
We studied 190 patients with smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) at our institution between 1973 and 2014. Evolving change in monoclonal protein level (eMP) was defined as ⩾10% increase in serum monoclonal protein (M) and/or immunoglobulin (Ig) (M/Ig) within the first 6 months of diagnosis (only if M-protein ⩾3 g/dl) and/or ⩾25% increase in M/Ig within the first 12 months, with a minimum required increase of 0.5 g/dl in M-protein and/or 500 mg/dl in Ig. Evolving change in hemoglobin (eHb) was defined as ⩾0.5 g/dl decrease within 12 months of diagnosis. A total of 134 patients (70.5%) progressed to MM over a median follow-up of 10.4 years. On multivariable analysis adjusting for factors known to predict for progression to MM, bone marrow plasma cells ⩾20% (odds ratio (OR)=3.37 (1.30-8.77), P=0.013), eMP (OR=8.20 (3.19-21.05), P<0.001) and eHb (OR=5.86 (2.12-16.21), P=0.001) were independent predictors of progression within 2 years of SMM diagnosis. A risk model comprising these variables was constructed, with median time to progression of 12.3, 5.1, 2.0 and 1.0 years among patients with 0-3 risk factors respectively. The 2-year progression risk was 81.5% in individuals who demonstrated both eMP and eHb, and 90.5% in those with all three risk factors.

Abstract
The presence of high numbers of circulating clonal plasma cells (cPCs) in patients with smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), detected by a slide-based immunofluorescence assay, has been associated with a shorter time to progression (TTP) to MM. The significance of quantifying cPCs via multiparameter flow cytometry, a much more readily available diagnostic modality, in patients with SMM has not been evaluated. This study evaluated 100 patients with a known or new diagnosis of SMM who were seen at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester from January 2008 until December 2013. Patients with ⩾150 cPCs (N=9) were considered to have high number of cPCs based on the 97% specificity and 78% PPV of progression to MM within 2 years of cPC assessment. The median TTP of patients with ⩾150 cPCs was 9 months compared with not reached for patients with <150 cPCs (P<0.001). Thus, quantification of cPCs via multiparametric flow cytometry identifies patients with SMM at very high risk of progression to MM within 2 years and warrants confirmation in larger studies. In the future, this may allow reclassification of such patients as having MM requiring therapy prior to them enduring end-organ damage.

Abstract
Outcomes for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) have improved in recent years owing to use of novel agents and high-dose therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). We analyzed the outcomes of 511 consecutive patients treated with novel therapies at our institution between 2006 and 2014 to determine the impact of relapse within 12 months of initiating treatment. A total of 82 patients (16.0%) experienced early relapse, with median time to relapse of 8.0 months (95% confidence interval (CI); 6.3, 8.9). Median overall survival (OS) was significantly worse for this group at 21.0 months (95% CI; 16.3, 27.2) vs not reached (NR) (95% CI; 96.3, NR) for those with late relapse (P<0.001). Survival outcomes remained poor among early relapse patients irrespective of depth of response to initial therapy. In multivariate analysis, low albumin and high-risk cytogenetics predicted early relapse. Outcomes of early relapse from early ASCT were also considered; median OS from ASCT for those relapsing within 12 months was 23.1 months (95% CI; 15.7, 32.4) vs 122.2 months (95% CI; 111.5, 122.2) for the remaining patients (P<0.001). Early relapse remains a marker of poor prognosis in the current era, and such patients should be targeted for clinical trials.

Abstract
Renal impairment (RI) is seen in over a quarter of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). It is not clear if reversal of RI improves the outcome to that expected for NDMM patients without RI. We evaluated 1135 consecutive patients with NDMM seen at the Mayo Clinic between January 2003 and December 2012. RI was defined as having a creatinine clearance (CrCl) <40ml/min. The median overall survival (OS) for patients with RI at diagnosis receiving and not receiving novel agent induction therapy was not reached vs 46 months (P<0.001). The median OS for patients with CrCl ⩾40 ml/min at diagnosis, CrCl <40 ml/min at diagnosis but improved to ⩾40 ml/min and CrCl <40 ml/min at diagnosis and remained <40 ml/min, were 112, 56 and 33 months, respectively (P<0.001). The complete renal response rate for patients with RI at diagnosis receiving novel agent induction therapy compared to the rest was 40 vs 16% (P<0.001). In conclusion, patients with reversal of RI have improved outcomes, but it remains inferior to patients with normal renal function at diagnosis. These results have implications for identifying early treatment strategies for patients at risk of developing renal insufficiency.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, with more than 10 million new cases each year. Despite the presence of several anticancer agents, cancer treatment is still not very effective. Main reasons behind this high mortality rate are the lack of screening tests for early diagnosis, and non-availability of tumor specific drug delivery system. Most of the current anticancer drugs are unable to differentiate between cancerous and normal cells, leading to systemic toxicity, and adverse side effects. In order to tackle this problem, a considerable progress has been made over the years to identify peptides, which specifically bind to the tumor cells, and tumor vasculature (tumor homing peptides). With the advances in phage display technology, and combinatorial libraries like one-bead one-compound library, several hundreds of tumor homing peptides, and their derivatives, which have potential to detect tumor in vivo, and deliver anticancer agents specifically to the tumor site, have been discovered. Currently, many tumor homing peptide-based therapies for cancer treatment and diagnosis are being tested in various phases of clinical trials. In this review, we have discussed the progress made so far in the identification of tumor homing peptides, and their applications in cancer therapeutics, diagnosis, and theranostics. In addition, a brief discussion on tumor homing peptide resource, and in silico designing of tumor homing peptides has also been provided.

Abstract
Therapy for multiple myeloma (MM) has markedly changed in the past decade with the introduction of new drugs, but it is not clear whether the improvements have been sustained. We studied 1038 patients diagnosed between 2001 and 2010, grouping patients into two 5-year periods by diagnosis, 2001-2005 and 2006-2010. The median estimated follow-up for the cohort was 5.9 years with 47% alive at the last follow-up. The median overall survival (OS) for the entire cohort was 5.2 years: 4.6 years for patients in the 2001-2005 group compared with 6.1 years for the 2006-2010 cohort (P=0.002). The improvement was primarily seen among patients over 65 years, the 6-year OS improving from 31 to 56%, P<0.001. Only 10% of patients died during the first year in the latter group, compared with 16% in the earlier cohort (P<0.01), suggesting improvement in early mortality. The improved outcomes were linked closely to the use of one or more new agents in initial therapy. The current results confirm continued survival improvement in MM and highlight the impact of initial therapy with novel agents. Most importantly, we demonstrate that the improved survival is benefitting older patients and that early mortality in this disease has reduced considerably.

Abstract
The presence of clonal circulating plasma cells (cPCs) is a marker of high-risk disease in all stages of monoclonal gammopathies. However, the prognostic utility of quantitating cPCs using multiparametric flow cytometry in multiple myeloma (MM) patients with current treatments is unknown. There were 157 consecutive patients with newly diagnosed MM seen at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester from 2009 to 2011 that had their peripheral blood evaluated for cPCs by multiparameter flow cytometry. Survival analysis was performed by the Kaplan-Meier method and differences assessed using the log-rank test. Using a receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis, ⩾400 cPCs were considered as the optimal cutoff for defining high-risk disease. The presence of ⩾400 cPCs was associated with higher plasma cell (PC) proliferation and adverse cytogenetics. The median time-to-next-treatment and overall survival (OS) in patients with ⩾400 cPCs (N=37, 24%) was 14 months and 32 months compared with 26 months and not reached for the rest (P<0.001). In a multivariable model, the presence of ⩾400 cPCs and older age adversely affected OS. Flow cytometry to quantify cPCs is a valuable test for risk stratifying newly diagnosed MM patients in the era of novel agents. Future studies are needed to determine its role in developing a risk-adapted treatment approach.

Abstract
The combination of lenalidomide and dexamethasone (Len-Dex) is a commonly used initial therapy for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM). Although the initial response rates and toxicity are well known, long-term outcome is not well described. We studied 286 consecutive patients with newly diagnosed MM initially treated with Len-Dex. The median (range) age at diagnosis was 63 (28-92) years, 166 (58%) patients ≤ 65 years and 175 (61%) male. The median estimated duration on Len-Dex was 5.3 months with overall response (≥ partial response) of 72%, including 26% with very good partial response or better. The median overall survival (OS) from the diagnosis was not reached (NR) and the estimated 5-year survival was 71%. The median time to first disease progression, irrespective of transplant status, was 30.2 months. Overall, 143 (50%) patients underwent stem cell transplant. The median OS was NR for patients ≤ 70 years and 5.8 years for the older patients (P=0.01). The 5-year OS estimate for patients in International Staging System stage 1, 2 and 3 were 82, 65, and 44% respectively. There were 21 new second malignancies after MM diagnosis (6.6%). The median survival exceeding 7 years reflects the efficacy of novel agents. The risk of second malignancies doesn't appear to be excessive in this population.

Abstract
Visceral Leishmaniasis or Kala Azar is endemic in certain regions of India. In endemic areas, the constellation of fever, progressive weight loss, weakness, pronounced splenomegaly, anemia, leukopenia, and hypergammaglobulinemia is highly suggestive of visceral leishmaniasis. Demonstration of the parasite in liver, splenic or bone marrow aspirates is confirmatory. We present a case in which Leishmania donovani (LD) bodies were demonstrated on splenic aspirate. We were unable to demonstrate LD bodies on bone marrow aspiration.

Abstract
Trials comparing efficacy of melphalan prednisone (MP) with MP plus thalidomide in transplant ineligible, elderly patients with multiple myeloma have provided conflicting evidence. Although there is agreement regarding improved response rates (RRs) and higher toxicity with the addition of thalidomide to MP, the impact on progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) is less clear. We performed a meta-analysis comparing efficacy of melphalan, prednisone and thalidomide (MPT) and MP by pooling results on RR, PFS and OS reported in all the identified randomized controlled trials (RCTs) under a random effects model. Overall, six prospective RCTs, with data extractable from five published trials (n=1571) [corrected] were identified. The pooled odds ratio of responding to therapy with MPT vs MP was 3.39 (P<0.001, 95% CI: 2.24-5.12). The pooled hazard ratios for PFS and OS were and 0.68 (P<0.001; 95% CI: 0.55-0.82) and 0.80 (P=0.07; 95% CI: 0.63-1.02), respectively, in favor of MPT. The odds ratios for high grade peripheral neuropathy and deep venous thrombosis were 6.6 and 2.4, respectively, in favour of MP. There was significant heterogeneity among the RCTs. Our meta-analysis demonstrates that in previously untreated, transplant ineligible, elderly myeloma patients, the addition of T to MP results in significantly improved RR and PFS with a trend towards improvement in OS compared with MP alone, but at a cost of significantly greater toxicity.

Abstract
8587 Background: The measurement of serum immunoglobulin free light chains (FLC) has diagnostic and prognostic utility in MM. Normalization of the FLC ratio may define a deeper complete response after therapy than by standard criteria of CR. A sCR requires normalization of the FLC ratio and absence of clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow (BM) in addition to the standard criteria for CR. The objective of our study was to evaluate the impact of specific types of CR [sCR, CR or near CR (nCR/ immunofixation positive CR)] post-SCT on time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS). Methods: 468 MM patients who had achieved at least a partial response post-SCT were studied. The results of serum and urine protein studies, serum FLC assay, and BM evaluation, including measurement of marrow plasma cell clonality by immunohistochemistry obtained ≥60 days after SCT were used to determine the best response. TTP was defined as the time from SCT to progression, with non-myeloma related deaths censored. Results: 179 patients achieved varying degrees of CR as their best response. 39, 35 and 105 patients achieved nCR, CR and sCR, respectively. The median estimated follow-up for the entire cohort was 52 months from the diagnosis and 41 months from SCT. The median TTP was 15, 29 and 35 months for patients achieving nCR, CR and sCR, respectively (P<0.0001). The median OS for patients achieving nCR was 53 months from the diagnosis, but not reached for those with a CR or sCR (P=0.0009). The 5-year OS was 80% and 79% for patients with CR and sCR, respectively (P=NS). Similarly, OS from SCT was significantly shorter in patients achieving nCR (42 months vs. not reached for patients in CR and sCR; P<0.001). Conclusions: Achievement of a sCR represents a deeper response state compared to conventional CR, translating to a longer response duration post SCT, validating its inclusion in the modified uniform response criteria. While we did not see a significant improvement in OS with sCR compared to CR in this group, this question needs to be addressed in a larger study. The step wise improvement in the response duration across nCR, CR and sCR highlights the contribution of immunofixation studies, marrow assessment of clonality and FLC estimates. [Table: see text]
