    Abstract: Tumor-associated neoangiogenesis has recently become a suitable target for antineoplastic drug development. In this overview, we discuss specific drug-associated hemostatic complications, the already known pathogenetic mechanisms involved, and the effect of varying antithrombotic strategies. Multiple agents with angiogenic inhibitory capacity (thalidomide, lenalidomide, bevacizumab, sunitinib, sorafenib, and sirolimus) have obtained US Food and Drug Administration approval, and many others have entered clinical trials. Arterial and venous thromboembolism and hemorrhage have emerged as significant toxicities associated with the use of angiogenesis inhibitors. We present a detailed analysis of the literature on thrombotic complication of antiangiogenic drugs. Close attention to hemostatic complications during antiangiogenic treatment is warranted. Further studies are required to better understand the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved and to define a safe prophylactic strategy.

    Abstract: e19523 Background:, Cases of Jehovah’s Witnesses (JW) who undergo, and survive, autologous and allogeneic stem cell transplant(SCT) are increasingly reported. Tandem autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT) for multiple myeloma has not been previously reported in JW. We are describing the first reports of four JW patients who successfully underwent tandem bloodless ASCT for multiple myeloma. Methods:, We retrospectively studied the outcome of four JW patients who underwent tandem ASCT from November 2000 to January 2017. . The bleeding complications, number and cost of transfusion of blood products were compared with last 100 consecutive tandem autologous transplants done from November 2014 till January 2017. Results:,There were 4 JW patients and 59 non-JW patients. Among 4 JW patients 3 were male and 1 was female. Among 59 non-JW 24(40.7%) were female and 35 (59.3%) were female. Median age was 60-years (range 54–66) and 59-years (range 36–71) for JW and non-JW patients, respectively. At Day+30 one JW patient had grade III pulmonary hemorrhage and Non-JW patients had no grade III or higher bleeding problems .The median number of CD34 cells transfused was 7.48 millions cells/kg in non-JW patients while it was 9.44 millions/kg in JW patients. Complete Remission(CR) was achieved in 33(59%) after 1 st tandem and 35(81.4%) after the second tandem transplant in Non-JW patients as compared to 100% CR rate in JW patients . The median number of platelet transfusions in non-JW patients was 2(range 0—21) and PRBC units was 1(range 0—7) at day+30 . Total cost of PRBC and platelet transfusions for the 59 non-JW patients was ~ 192,374 dollars (average 1923.74$/transplant). This excludes the supply costs and management of transfusion reactions costs. Conclusions: 1) Tandem autologous transplant for multiple myeloma in JW population is practical and largely safe. 2) Blood products are expensive and can be further minimized based on the JW patient data

    Abstract: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) permits the detection of diffuse and focal bone marrow infiltration in the absence of osteopenia or focal osteolysis on standard metastatic bone surveys (MBSs). Patients and Methods Both baseline MBS and MRI were available in 611 of 668 myeloma patients who were treated uniformly with a tandem autologous transplantation–based protocol and were evaluated to determine their respective merits for disease staging, response assessment, and outcome prediction. Results MRI detected focal lesions (FLs) in 74% and MBS in 56% of imaged anatomic sites; 52% of 267 patients with normal MBS results and 20% of 160 with normal MRI results had FL on MRI and MBS, respectively. MRI- but not MBS-defined FL independently affected survival. Cytogenetic abnormalities (CAs) and more than seven FLs on MRI (MRI-FLs) distinguished three risk groups: 5-year survival was 76% in the absence of both more than seven MRI-FLs and CA (n = 276), 61% in the presence of one MRI-FL (n = 262), and 37% in the presence of both unfavorable parameters (n = 67). MRI-FL correlated with low albumin and elevated levels of C-reactive protein, lactate dehydrogenase, and creatinine, but did not correlate with age, beta-2-microglobulin, and CA. Resolution of MRI-FL, occurring in 60% of cases and not seen with MBS-defined FL, conferred superior survival. Conclusion MRI is a more powerful tool for detection of FLs than is MBS. MRI-FL number had independent prognostic implications; additionally, MRI-FL resolution identified a subgroup with superior survival. We therefore recommend that, in addition to MBS, MRI be used routinely for staging, prognosis, and response assessment in myeloma.
