摘要

Primary systemic amyloidosis (AL) is a rare plasma cell dyscrasia with approximately 2000 cases diagnosed yearly in North America. In this disease, monoclonal immunoglobulin light chains are produced by malignant plasma cells resulting in amyloid fibril deposition in vital organs leading to progressive, fatal multi-system failure. The median survival for treated patients is approximately 18 months compared to 12 months for untreated patients; the median survival for patients with symptomatic cardiac involvement is 6 months (1).With the promising outcomes observed with high dose chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the more common plasma cell dyscrasia, multiple myeloma, pilot trials to test this approach in AL were pursued. These pilot trials, which almost uniformly utilized high dose melphalan, again based upon the experience in multiple myeloma, showed encouraging results: hematologic response rates were appreciated in approximately 60% of the patients; organ response rates were also observed but at a lower rate. Unfortunately, these early pilot trials were associated with high transplant-related mortality: 15-25%, and significantly higher, approaching 65% in patients with AL cardiomyopathy. More recent clinical trials have been conducted with more stringent patient selection criteria: transplant-related mortality has decreased to 10-15% (2).
