    Abstract: To use machine learning methods to explore overall survival (OS)-related prognostic factors in elderly multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Methods Data were cleaned and imputed using simple imputation methods. Two data resampling methods were implemented to facilitate model building and cross validation. Four algorithms including the cox proportional hazards model (CPH); DeepSurv; DeepHit; and the random survival forest (RSF) were applied to incorporate 30 parameters, such as baseline data, genetic abnormalities and treatment options, to construct a prognostic model for OS prediction in 338 elderly MM patients ( & gt;65 years old) from four hospitals in Beijing. The C-index and the integrated Brier score (IBwere used to evaluate model performances. Results The 30 variables incorporated in the models comprised MM baseline data, induction treatment data and maintenance therapy data. The variable importance test showed that the OS predictions were largely affected by the maintenance schema variable. Visualizing the survival curves by maintenance schema, we realized that the immunomodulator group had the best survival rate. C-indexes of 0.769, 0.780, 0.785, 0.798 and IBS score of 0.142, 0.112, 0.108, 0.099 were obtained from the CPH model, DeepSurv, DeepHit, and the RSF model respectively. The RSF model yield best scores from the fivefold cross-validation, and the results showed that different data resampling methods did affect our model results. Conclusion We established an OS model for elderly MM patients without genomic data based on 30 characteristics and treatment data by machine learning.

    Abstract: Vitamin D deficiency is frequent in patients with multiple myeloma (MM), however, its prognostic relevance in MM was rather inconclusive. We first investigated the association of vitamin D deficiency with abnormal bone and lipid metabolism in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM), and next assessed the impact of serum ratio of vitamin D to carboxy-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (β-CTX) on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall free survival (OS) in patients with NDMM. Methods The data of 431 consecutive patients with NDMM at Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from September 2013 to December 2022 were collected and retrospectively reviewed through our electronic medical record system. The measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in the blood is an indicator of an individual’s overall vitamin D status. Results The serum levels of vitamin D were negatively correlated with β-CTX in NDMM patients. Of note, positive correlation between vitamin D and cholesterol levels in the serum was found in this study. The cohort (n = 431) was divided into two groups based on the serum ratio of vitamin D to β-CTX. Compared to the group with a higher vitamin D to β-CTX ratio, the group with a lower vitamin D to β-CTX ratio (n = 257, 60%) exhibited hypocholesterolemia, inferior PFS and OS, along with increased cases of ISS stage-III and R-ISS stage-III, a higher number of plasma cells in the bone marrow, and elevated serum calcium levels. Consistent with this, multivariate analysis confirmed that the vitamin D to β-CTX ratio was an independent unfavorable indicator for survival in NDMM patients. Conclusion Our data demonstrated the ratio of vitamin D to β-CTX in the serum is a unique biomarker for NDMM patients to identify the high-risk cases with poor prognosis, which is superior to vitamin D itself for predicting PFS and OS in NDMM. Also, it is worth mentioning that our data on the connection between vitamin D deficiency and hypocholesterolemia might help clarify novel mechanistic aspects of myeloma development.
