Merlini, Blood 2007

Light chain amyloidosis (AL)

• Monoclonal plasma cell disorder lambda predominance– lambda predominance

• Multiple myeloma or Waldenstrom´s disease is the nderl ing diasease in abo t 10%is the underlying diasease in about 10%

• Incidence: 5-13 new diagnoses / 1 mio. / year (Falk, NEJM 1997)

• Median age at diagnosis about 65 yearsMedian age at diagnosis about 65 years• Predominance of males

Light chain amyloidosis (AL)

• Bad prognosis due to fast developing organ failurefailure

• Median Survival: 13 months after diagnosis– 13 months after diagnosis

– Cardiac failure present: 5 month (Kyle, Semin Hematol 1995)

Diagnostic algorhythmAmyloidosis suspected:

Biopsy / K R d t i i• Biopsy / Kongo-Red staining• Typing of amyloidosisyp g y

– Evaluation of gammopathy – Immunohistology– Immunohistology – Germ-line mutation analysis

• Organ involvement / Performance Status • Treatment recommendationTreatment recommendation

Amyloidosis suspected

• Myocardial hypertrophy without hypertension• Orthostatic dysregulation and dizziness without vascular y g

cause• Nephrotic syndrom• Chronic diarrhea • Hepatomegaly / AP elevation

S t ki bl di ith t ti l ti• Spontaneous skin bleedings without anticoagulation• Fast worsening polyneuropathy

PNP without diabetes positive family history• PNP without diabetes, positive family history• Carpaltunnel syndrome• Ongoing hoarseness• Ongoing hoarseness• Weight loss

T i f l id iTyping of amyloidosisGammopathyp y

• Serum electrophoresisf• Immunfixation

– Serum U i– Urine

• Presence of monoclonal light chain– Serum (free light chains)– Urine (24h collection)

• Diagnostic tools have improved. • Chemotherapeutic spectrum has importantly• Chemotherapeutic spectrum has importantly

widened in the last 10 years.

• HDM ist currently treatment of choice for eligible patients in experienced centres.

• Solid organ transplantation is possible in selected patientspatients.

P tiPerspective

• Conventional chemotherapy in combination with new drugs is currently being tested in clinical trials

(L-MD, B-MD)

• Development of new Anti Amyloid Treatment• Development of new Anti-Amyloid-Treatment
