PracticeUpdateModern Anti-Myeloma Therapies and Outcomes of Patients with Primary Plasma Cell Leukemia

The authors evaluated the treatment approaches and outcomes of 110 patients with primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL) in this retrospective study . Higher complete response rates were associated with treatment with bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRd) or daratumumab-based quadruplets (DBQ) and autologous stem-cell transplantation. Patients who received VRd/DBQ had better outcomes than those who received other bortezomib-based combinations or standard chemotherapy.
