  2. Natural Course of MM

  3. Progress in the Treatment of MM in the Past 40 Years

  4. Multiple Myeloma Pathophysiology 4 Dysregulation of cyclins, oncogenes, and tumor suppressors1 Cytogenetic changes and/or mutations1 DC Failure of immune surveillance2-3 MM tumor cells Immunosuppression2 ICAM-1 Cytokines and growth factors2 Stromal cell support, TNF- production4-5 These events lead to uncontrolled tumor cell growth DC, dendritic cell; MM, multiple myeloma; NK, natural killer; NKT, natural killer T cell; TNF, tumor necrosis factor.

  5. Interaction of MM Cells and BM Microenvironment Hideshima T, Mitsiades C, Tonon G, Richardson PG, Anderson KC. Nat Rev Cancer 2007;7(8):585-98.

  8. Changing the Treatment Landscape of MM by Novel Agents • Bortezomib, lenalidomide/ dex, thalidomide/ dex, bortezomib/ liposomal doxorubicin, bortezomib/ MP, bortezomib/ dex • Targeting MM in the BM microenvironment to overcome conventional drug resistance in vitro and in vivo • Effective in relapsed/refractory MM • Effective as induction/first-line therapy • Emerging role of transplant/maintenance

  9. Treatment Goal in MM Patients • Appropriate balance between treatment efficacy, toxicity and costs

  10. Cure VS Control • Cure as treatment goal • Therapeutic aim to achieve CR • Use intensive upfront therapy to maximize the chance of achieving CR  longer PFS, TTP • “CR correlates with prolonged OS ?” • Disease control as treatment goal • Therapeutic aim to prolong OS • Use less intensive, sequential approach to balance efficacy with quality of life • Leave reserve for later salvage therapy • Not all studies support correlation between CR and OS

  11. Actions to Achieve Cure • To eradicate the tumor clone (stem cells) • To achieve and maintain the best possible response • A small number of residual tumor cells may persist under control of immune system for long time • Avoid over-treatment

  12. High risk High ISS stage Chromosomal aberrations by FISH del 17p t(4;14) t(14;16) Metaphase cytogenetic del 13 or 13q- Other factors LDH IgA subtype Extramedullary disease Renal impairment High serum free light chain Plasmablastic feature PC leukemia IMWG Consensus Recommendations on Risk Assessment

  13. Aim of Induction Therapy • Prevent and reverse end-organ dysfunction • Minimize toxicity associated with induction regimen • Induce deep response

  14. Current Induction Regimens • Two-drug • Bortezomib-dexamethasone • Lenalidomide-dex or thalidomide-dex • Three-drug • Thalidomide, bortezomib, dex • Lenalidomide, bortezomib, dex • Cyclophosphamide, bortezomib, dex • Bortezomib, doxorubicin, dex • Four-drug • Cyclophosphamide, lenalidomide, bortezomib, dex • Cyclophosphamide, bortezomib, thalidomide, dex • Lenalidomide, bortezomib, liposomal doxorubicin, dex

  15. Impact of CR in the ASCT Setting • In the ASCT setting, there is a large body of evidence showing an association between optimal response (CR/VGPR) and long-term outcome (PFS and OS) • 10 prospective trials (2991 patients): all showed a positive correlation (statistically significant in 8). Similar findings in 5/8 retrospective trials (Van de Velde. Haematologica 2007;92:1399.) • Significant correlation between maximal response and outcome prospective studies (<0.00001) & retrospective studies (<0.00001)

  16. MRD evaluation by PCR (Qualitative & Semi-Q) in MM patients: Prognostic Value

  17. Distinction between Myelomatous & Normal Plasma Cells GEM2000 & GEM2005: Impact on survival of achieving an immunophenotypic response after HDT/ASCT independent of induction regimen

  18. Prognostic Relevance of Durable CR

  19. Maintenance Therapy in MM Ludwig H, et al. IMWG consensus on maintenance therapy in multiple myeloma. Blood 2012;119:3003-15.

  20. TTP with and Without Lenalidomide Maintenance CALGB 100104, ASH 2010 update.

  21. 23 deaths in the lenalidomide arm and 39 deaths in the placebo arm p value=0.018 Placebo patients who had PD were not eligible to cross over to lenalidomide on study CALGB 100104, follow up to 04/17/2011 Median follow-up of 28 months

  22. Selection of appropriate patients Young without comorbidity No adverse cytogenetics risks Combinations of novel agents during induction Integration of ASCT after induction? Achieving more depth of CR  Immunophenotypic CR Consolidation Maintenance therapy with novel agents Possibility of Cure?
