Patients (pts) from two prospective trials were analyzed, provided postinduction (PInd) restaging was performed. Pts received three cycles with bortezomib (btz), cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (dex; VCD) or btz, lenalidomide (len), and dex (VRd) or len, adriamycin, and dex (RAD). The minimum required estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was >30 mL/min. We analyzed the percent change of the renal function using the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria and Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO)-defined categories. Results: Seven hundred and seventy-two patients were eligible. Three hundred and fifty-six received VCD, 214 VRd, and 202 RAD. VCD patients had the best baseline eGFR. The proportion of pts with eGFR <45 mL/min decreased from 7.3% at baseline to 1.9% PInd (p < 0.0001). Thirty-seven point one percent of VCD versus 49% of VRd patients had a decrease of GFR (p = 0.0872). IMWG-defined “renal complete response (CRrenal)” was achieved in 17/25 (68%) pts after VCD, 12/19 (63%) after RAD, and 14/27 (52%) after VRd (p = 0.4747). Conclusions: Analyzing a large and representative newly diagnosed myeloma (NDMM) group, we found no difference in CRrenal that occurred independently from the myeloma response across the three regimens. A trend towards deterioration of the renal function with VRd versus VCD may be explained by a better pretreatment “renal fitness” in the latter group.

Current clinical study protocols rely on the ex vivo expansion of donor T reg cells and their infusion in high numbers. In this study, we present a novel strategy for inhibiting GvHD that is based on the in vivo expansion of recipient T reg cells before allo-HCT, exploiting the crucial role of tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2) in T reg cell biology. Expanding radiation-resistant host T reg cells in recipient mice using a mouse TNFR2-selective agonist before allo-HCT significantly prolonged survival and reduced GvHD severity in a TNFR2-and T reg cell-dependent manner. The beneficial effects of transplanted T cells against leukemia cells and infectious pathogens remained unaffected. A corresponding human TNFR2-specific agonist expanded human T reg cells in vitro. These observations indicate the potential of our strategy to protect allo-HCT patients from acute GvHD by expanding T reg cells via selective TNFR2 activation in vivo.

Dies liegt unter anderem daran, dass die Frage zum prognostischen Wert der MI bisher nicht geklärt werden konnte. METHODEN Unsere retrospektive Studie untersuchte 1017 Patient:innen mit hochgradiger AS, die in unserem Haus einen chirurgischen oder kathetergestützten Aortenklappenersatz erhielten (20% SAVR, 14,3% SAVR + CABG, 65,8% TAVI). Es erfolgte eine multivariate Analyse von klinischen und echokardiographischen Daten sowie der Gesamtmortalität. ERGEBNISSE Eine moderate bis hochgradige MI konnte bei 183 Patient:innen (18%) festgestellt werden, davon hatten 155 Patient:innen (15,2%) eine moderate MI. In der multivariaten Cox- Regression blieb die moderate MI im Vergleich zu einer maximal milden MI unter Adjustierung für Alter, Geschlecht, BMI, Vorhofflimmern und Dyslipidämie unabhängig mit einem erhöhten Gesamtmortalitätsrisiko assoziiert (HR=1,341, 95% CI 1,031- 1,746, p=0,029). Eine nach den verschiedenen Aortenklappenersatzverfahren stratifizierte Subgruppen-Analyse konnte zeigen, dass die mindestens moderate MI nur in der Subgruppe mit Kombination von SAVR und CABG eine unabhängige Determinante der Gesamtmortalität blieb (HR=2,597, 95% CI 1,105- 6,105, p=0,029). Weiterhin war die moderate MI auch in der Subgruppe mit normalem Albuminspiegel eine unabhängige Determinante der Gesamtmortalität (HR=1,719, p=0.012), nicht jedoch wenn das Albumin ≤4,2 g/dl lag. SCHLUSSFOLGERUNG In unserer Studie ist eine begleitende moderate MI unabhängig mit einer erhöhten Gesamtmortalität assoziiert. Der prognostische Wert der MI variiert dabei mit der OP- Prozedur und dem Albuminspiegel. Für eine klare Aussage bezüglich des prognostischen Werts bedarf es jedoch weiterer idealerweise prospektiver Studien. N2 - BACKGROUND The prevalence of at least moderate mitral regurgitation concomitant with aortic valve stenosis at the time of surgery is high, yet there are no evidence-based recommendations in this case to decide whether to treat moderate MR surgically or conservatively. This is partly because the question regarding the prognostic value of MR has not yet been resolved. METHODS Our retrospective study examined 1017 patients with high-grade AS who underwent surgical or catheter-based aortic valve replacement at our institution (20% SAVR, 14.3% SAVR + CABG, 65.8% TAVR). Multivariate analysis of clinical and echocardiographic data and all-cause mortality was performed. RESULTS Moderate to high-grade MR was detected in 183 patients (18%), of whom 155 patients (15.2%) had moderate MR. In multivariate Cox regression, moderate MR remained independently associated with increased all-cause mortality risk compared with maximal mild MR when adjusted for age, sex, BMI, atrial fibrillation, and dyslipidemia (HR=1.341, 95% CI 1.031- 1.746, p=0.029). A subgroup analysis stratified by the different aortic valve replacement procedures demonstrated that at least moderate MR remained an independent determinant of all-cause mortality only in the subgroup with combination of SAVR and CABG (HR=2.597, 95% CI 1.105- 6.105, p=0.029). Furthermore, moderate MR was also an independent determinant of all-cause mortality in the subgroup with normal albumin levels (HR=1.719, p=0.012), but not when albumin was ≤4.2 g/dL. CONCLUSION In our study, concomitant moderate MR is independently associated with increased all-cause mortality. The prognostic value of MR varied with the surgical procedure and albumin level. However, further ideally prospec?ve studies are needed for a clear conclusion regarding the prognos?c value.
