MM therapy overtime  1960s. MELFALAN: anti‐MM effect.  1980s. HDM‐ASCT in younger MM patients: improved response rates and progression‐free survival.  Last decade. Thalidomide, bortezomib, lenalidomide: improved response rates, progression‐free survival and overall survival.

Objectives
 To investigate the presence of bone marrow MDS‐associated phenotypic
alterations in newly diagnosed patients with PLASMA CELL DISORDERS.
 To investigate the presence of additional MDS‐associated features.
Myeloid
clonality
Patients and Methods
n= 250 consecutive BM samples from PLASMA CELL NEOPLASIAS
n= 33 (13%) depicted MYELOID phenotypic alterations:
MGUS (n=8)
MM (n=25)
 Neutrophil
 Monocytic
 PC
‐ Neutrophil hypogranulation
‐ Normal neutrophil granulation
Aberrant CD56 monocytic expression

 Additional Immunophenotyping
 FACS‐sorting: FISH/HUMARA
 Conventional morphologic assessment
Additional flow cytometry studies: n= 33
 EuroFlow AML/MDS panel
 FACS-sorting (purity ≥97%): o CD34+ HPC
 iFISH
o Neutrophil
 HUMARA
o Monocytic o Erythroid Matarraz S et al. Leukemia 2014 [Epub ahead of print]

 Morphologic alterations in MGUS and MM
 Megakaryocytic Lineage: disperse nuclei, monolobated nucleus
 Myeloid cells: degranulation, internuclear and intercytoplasmic bridges, nuclei
hyposegmentation, clumping chromatin
 Erythroblasts: karyorrhexis, excentric nucleus, basophilic stipling, internuclear
bridges, inclusions.

MGUS and MM with MDS-PA: Outcome
 MGUS (n=5)
‐ 3/5 cases were finally diagnosed as having also MDS
‐ 1/5 depicted deep worsening of thrombocytopenia
 MM (n=15)
‐ 2/15 cases were finally diagnosed as having also MDS
‐ 1/15 developed clinical MDS one year after diagnosis of MM
‐ 42% of remaining cases died during the first year

Conclusions
 Clonality outside the PC compartment was fully demonstrated in >5% of patients with PC disorders.
 A significant proportion of MM and MGUS patients with either isolated or
multiple/marked phenotypic alterations also display genetic and/or
morphologic evidences of myeloid clonality.
 Immunophenotyping of BM precursors and myeloid cells at diagnosis may
help to discard underlying MDS. More careful follow‐up.
 The high rate of deaths point to the need of further evaluation (in large
patient series) of the adverse clinical impact of these MDS‐like features in clinical trials.
