Abstract Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in multiple myeloma is limited by prior reports of high treatment-related mortality. We analyzed outcomes after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation for multiple myeloma in 1207 recipients in 3 cohorts based on the year of transplantation: 1989-1994 (n = 343), 1995-2000 (n = 376), and 2001-2005 (n = 488). The most recent cohort was significantly older (53% > 50 years) and had more recipients after prior autotransplantation. Use of unrelated donors, reduced-intensity conditioning and the blood cell grafts increased over time. Rates of acute graft-versus-host (GVHD) were similar, but chronic GVHD rates were highest in the most recent cohort. Overall survival (OS) at 1-year increased over time, reflecting a decrease in treatment-related mortality, but 5-year relapse rates increased from 39% (95% confidence interval [CI], 33%-44%) in 1989-1994 to 58% (95% CI, 51%-64%; P < .001) in the 2001-2005 cohort. Projected 5-year progression-free survival and OS are 14% (95% CI, 9%-20%) and 29% (95% CI, 23%-35%), respectively, in the latest cohort. Increasing age, longer interval from diagnosis to transplantation, and unrelated donor grafts adversely affected OS in multivariate analysis. Survival at 5 years for subjects with none, 1, 2, or 3 of these risk factors were 41% (range, 36%-47%), 32% (range, 27%-37%), 25% (range, 19%-31%), and 3% (range, 0%-11%), respectively (P < .0001).

Abstract Abstract 2260 Poster Board II-237 Several studies have demonstrated that genetic variation in cytokine genes can modulate the immune reactions after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). High mobility group box 1 protein (HMBG1) is a pleiotropic cytokine that functions as a proinflammatory signal, important for the activation of antigen presenting cells (APC) and propagation of inflammation. HMGB1 is implicated in the pathophysiology of a variety of inflammatory diseases, and we have recently found the variation in the HMGB1gene to be associated with mortality in patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). To assess the impact of the genetic variation in HMGB1 on outcome after allogeneic HCT, we genotyped 276 and 146 patient/donor pairs treated with allogeneic HCT for hematologic malignancies following myeloablative or non-myeloablative conditioning. Associations between genotypes and outcome were only observed in the cohort treated with myeloablative conditioning. Patient homozygosity or heterozygosity for the –1377delA minor allele was associated with increased risk of relapse (hazard ratio (HR) 2.11, P=0.02) and increased relapse related mortality (RRM) (P=0.03). The –1377delA minor allele has previously been associated with mortality in patients with SIRS, and although SIRS and allogeneic HCT are different entities the confirmative association of this polymorphic locus with mortality in 2 independent studies suggests that it is of pathophysiological importance. The three polymorphisms, 3814C>G, 1177G>C and 2351insT, tended to have the same effect on transplantation outcome, due to a moderate to strong linkage disequilibrium between loci. Of these three polymorphisms, patient homozygosity for the 3814C>G minor allele showed the strongest association with increased overall survival (HR 0.13, P=0.04), progression free survival (HR 0.30, P=0.05) and decreased probability of RRM (P=0.03). Patient carriage of the 2351insT minor allele reduced the risk of grade 2 to 4 acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) (HR 0.60, P=0.01), while donor carriage of the minor allele displayed a gene dosage effect, with a successive increase in risk of developing limited or extensive chronic GVHD per minor allele carried (HR 1.54, P=0.01). That patient HMGB1 genotypes were associated with outcomes dependent on primarily patient APCs, and that donor genotypes were associated with a, in part, donor APC dependent outcome, could suggest that the polymorphisms in HMGB1 influence the transcription of HMGB1 in APCs induced by the proinflammatory milieu after myeloablative conditioning, rather than the passively released from damaged cells, although these two mechanisms are not mutually exclusive. Our findings suggest that the inherited variation in HMGB1 is associated with outcome after allogeneic HCT following myeloablative conditioning. None of the polymorphisms were associated with treatment related mortality. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.
