e19524 Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell neoplasia characterized by a diffuse clonal plasma cell infiltration of the bone marrow. Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is a relevant biomarker in MM and in the era of novel agents, LDH confirmed its negative impact on survival in newly diagnosed setting (Bal et al., presented at ASH2018). Methods: This single center retrospective study included 208 patients with a diagnosis of MM who underwent ASCT at our center between January 2008 - Mart 2018 were prospectively analyzed. We identified patients with baseline serum LDH values (ULN = 247 U/L). We compare baseline characteristics and outcomes of ASCT according to LDH values. Results: All clinical data were available in 208 cases (High LDH: 92 (44.2%), Normal LDH: 116 (55.8%)) There were 87 (41.8 %) female and 87 (41.8 %) male patients. The median age at diagnosis of MM was 63 years (range, 37-77 years). The median time of follow-up was 48 months (range, 2.8-197.5 months). Of the 92 patients with high LDH who underwent ASCT, median age was 65 years and ECOG performance status was 1 and 58.6 % were male. There was no statistically differences in performance status, induction treatment regimens and the number of treatment line prior to ASCT. Induction therapy consisted of 3 drugs in 91.3% and 2 drugs in 8.7 % in high LDH group (p = NS). Forty-eight (53.3%) patients with high LDH received a bortezomib-based induction and 35 patients (40.2 %) achieved ³ very good partial remission (VGPR) after the induction therapy. During follow up, 45 relapses were occurred and all relapsed patients died. According to the long-rank test, estimated 5-year OS was not significantly different between normal and high LDH categories (63.3 %±0.6 % vs. 64.6 %±0.5 %; p = 0.99). Median PFS was 101.4 months (95% CI: 73.7-129) in high LDH group and 92.1 months (95% CI: 71.1-113.1) in normal LDH group (p = 0.99). Conclusions: Elevated LDH was confirmed as a poor prognostic factor in previous reports. In our transplanted patients with high LDH cohort, clinical outcomes are favorable and similar those have normal LDH. Therefore, further studies of larger randomized cohorts are required to clarify the impact of pre-transplant LDH levels on ASCT outcomes.
