Abstract Introduction: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant disorder of plasma cells resistant to chemotherapy. Various chemotherapy protocols are available for patients with MM, including VAD (vincristine, adriamycin, prednisolon) and MP (melphalan, prednisolon). These therapies aim to slow disease progression and/or prepare the patient for stem cell transplantation (SCT), the standard of care for MM patients younger than 70.

Multiple myeloma (MM) has a high incidence rate in the elderly. Responsiveness to treatments differs considerably among patients because of high heterogeneity of MM.

Recent advances in diagnostic tests, chemotherapy agents, and dialysis techniques are providing clinicians with novel approaches for the management of MM patients with CKD.

Among them, it is now clear that chemotherapy can also make cancer cells “visible” to the immune system and thus reactivate anti-tumor immunity.

Abstract:
PURPOSE Standard therapy for multiple myeloma consists of cytotoxic chemotherapy plus glucocorticoids. Interferon (IFN) alfa maintenance is reported to prolong chemotherapy-induced remissions and survival. This study evaluates induction chemotherapy, glucocorticoids, and interferon maintenance in myeloma. PATIENTS AND METHODS Five hundred twenty-two previously untreated myeloma patients were randomized to three chemotherapy regimens with differing glucocorticoid intensities. Patients who achieved remission were randomized to receive IFN or observation until relapse. Patients who failed to resp

Abstract:
Pancreatic infiltration is a rare feature of multiple myeloma. A case of a 74-year-old man presenting with symptomatic biliary obstruction two years after the original diagnosis of myeloma is described. Confirmation of pancreatic infiltration with myeloma cells was performed by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration. Biliary stenting was performed at endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Resolution of the pancreatic mass and the associated biliary stricture was observed after radiation and chemotherapy.

Abstract:
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (pml) is a rare demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that most often affects immunocompromised individuals. It is caused by the reactivation of the John Cunningham virus (jcv), which is found in latent form in the majority of adults. We describe a 59-year-old man with multiple myeloma who developed severe neurological deficits during treatment with ixazomib-based chemotherapy. A diagnosis of pml was established with gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (mri) and by detection of jcv in the cerebrospinal fluid. Despite cessation

Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a right frontal extraaxial lesion arising from the dura mater, and biological studies revealed hypercalcemia, hyperproteinemia, and a serum gamma globulin peak. A diagnosis of IgG-kappa MM was based on microscopic examination and immunohistochemical analysis of the dural plasmacytoma as well as on signs of systemic myeloma after surgery.

Abstract:
Multiple myeloma is the second most common hematological malignancy. Ixazomib is the first oral proteasome inhibitor approved in the United States for the management of multiple myeloma who have received at least one prior treatment. The availability of oral chemotherapeutic agents for the management of multiple myeloma has made it easier for patients who do not have to come to the hospital for chemotherapy infusions. However, many barriers are associated with oral chemotherapy, and one of them is a misinterpretation of instruction which can have deleterious effects. In this case report, we pr

Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is cancer of the plasma cell characterized by interpatient heterogeneity, in most of the cases it is incurable. It is the second most common hematological malignancy. Overall survival of patients has significantly increased recently. Lot of research is going on for prognostic factors, which can predict disease and response to therapy. During the past decades, biomarkers: M protein and β2 microglobulin have shaped the knowledge about MM. This study was undertaken to evaluate the role of prognostic factors in newly diagnosed and few follow up patients of MM befo

Introduction. New approaches to the oncohematology management that also include multiple myeloma treatment, makes higher level of hematological remission and improve survival rates. But novel cytostatic drugs have higher incidence of cardiotoxicity. According to the modern multiple myeloma management guidelines, patients, who have no indications for bone morrow transplantation, should be treated by VRd chemotherapy scheme as a first line therapy. The VRd scheme includes: bortezomib, lenalidomid and dexamethasone.
