- 复发是常见的,需要进一步的治疗线路,包括新型免疫疗法.
- 周围血液细胞的体质突变,例如PPM1D基因,与血液恶性瘤的不良结果有关.
研究的目的:

- 评估PPM1D突变与HDCT/ASCT后的临床结果之间的相关性.
主要方法:
- 来自75名多发性骨髓瘤患者的周围血液细胞在HDCT/ASCT后缓解后被分析为PPM1D基因突变.
- 确定了突变的存在和变异性等位基因频率 (VAF).
- 在PPM1D突变 (PPM1Dmut) 和野生类型 (PPM1Dwt) 组之间比较了无进展生存 (PFS) 和总生存 (OS).
主要成果:
- 在第一个HDCT/ASCT后的1.3%患者和第二个HDCT/ASCT后的7.3%患者中发现了切断PPM1D突变,VAF为0.01-0.05.
- 在PPM1Dmut患者中,结果明显较差:PFS中位数为15个月,而PFS中位数为37个月 (p=0.0002).
- 与PPM1Dwt患者 (156个月) 相比,PPM1Dmut患者 (36个月) 的中位 OS 也减少了 (p=0.001).
结论:
- 在外围血液细胞中发生PPM1D基因突变的发生与多发性髓瘤中ASCT后的劣质临床结果相关.
- 在接受ASCT的MM患者中,PPM1D突变可以作为治疗反应和生存的预测生物标志物.

Mismatch Repair
4.8K
Organisms are capable of detecting and fixing nucleotide mismatches that occur during DNA replication. This sophisticated process requires identifying the new strand and replacing the erroneous bases with correct nucleotides. Mismatch repair is coordinated by many proteins in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Abnormal Proliferation
4.5K
Under normal conditions, most adult cells remain in a non-proliferative state unless stimulated by internal or external factors to replace lost cells. Abnormal cell proliferation is a condition in which the cell's growth exceeds and is uncoordinated with normal cells. In such situations, cell division persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli, leading to persistent tumors. The tumor arises from the damaged cells that replicate to pass the damage to the...
