Article Synopsis
- Multiple myeloma, though treatable with new therapies, remains incurable, and relapse is common, necessitating the role of second autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT) in relapsed patients.
- A review of 30 patients undergoing salvage auto-SCT revealed a median follow-up of 34 months post-transplant, with a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 24 months after the second transplant, indicating its effectiveness.
- The study found that while second auto-SCT was well-tolerated with low treatment-related mortality, the PFS was shorter compared to the first transplant, highlighting the need for careful patient selection.
Treating patients with DLBCL remains a challenge, as the response to first-line immunochemotherapy is somewhat unpredictable. The International Prognostic Index (IPI) is one of the most widely used methods for assessing prognosis. Interim PET/CT (iPET/CT) can play an important role in the early identification of 'non-responder' patients before the end of treatment examination.
