Assessment of Mobilization Cost for Multiple Myeloma Using 2 Different Mobilization Strategies: High-Dose Cyclophosphamide Versus Plerixafor. on Behalf of IFM
Abstract Background. Peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection prior to high dose chemotherapy for autologous transplantation (ASCT) is a standard of care, and an attractive alternative to the use of bone marrow cells, for transplantation in Multiple Myeloma (MM). The optimal methodology for mobilizing PBSC has yet to be defined, both G-CSF and GM-CSF can be used; although, the stimulatory effect may be more pronounced when given after high dose cyclophosphamide (usually administered at a dose of 1.5 to 6g/m2 IV for one to two days) and use of Plerixafor, a CXCR4 antagonist (Mozobil®). The latter 2 options are preferred, overall, in France. Indeed, it was shown that the most recent combi…
P-149: Immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in patients with multiple myeloma
We evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of the BNT162b2 vaccine in 52 patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Median age was 71.3 (range, 39.6-90.8) years. 26 (50%) patients had received active treatment including an immunomodulatory drug (IMiD) (n=21), an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody (n=11) and/or a proteasome inhibitor (n=4). 21 had received previous treatment interrupted at a median of 27.5 (range, 3.5-169.3) months before first vaccine inoculum. 5 patients had indolent untreated MM. 35 patients had a history of autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT) performed at a median of 44.4 (range, 3.5-169.3) months before first vaccine inoculum. The vaccination was well tolerated wi…
