Gain of chromosome 1q portends worse prognosis in multiple myeloma despite novel agent-based induction regimens and autologous transplantation
12 Jan 2017
Abstract excerpt
We aimed to identify whether the use of autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) impacts outcomes for multiple myeloma patients with gains of chromosome 1q (+1q). We retrospectively identified 95 patients, 21% having +1q. For patients with +1q, the overall response rate to induction was 85%, with 40% having ≥ VGPR and 20% achieving a CR, similar to non +1q patients (p = .64). The median PFS from...
