Phase 1 Study of the Combination of Escalated Total Marrow Irradiation Using Helical Tomotherapy and Fixed High-Dose Melphalan (140 mg/m²) Followed by Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation at First Relapse in Multiple Myeloma. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2023; 115:677-685.

Abstract
PURPOSE A second intensification is an option at first relapse in multiple myeloma (MM) after more than 36 months of initial remission. Many conditioning regimens have been tested, with or without total body irradiation (TBI). Recently, it was found that TBI could be replaced by total marrow irradiation (TMI) using helical tomotherapy, with promising results. METHODS AND MATERIALS This study was a prospective multicenter phase 1 trial that aimed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of TMI administered in association with melphalan 140 mg/m², followed by autologous stem cell transplantation as consolidation at first relapse in MM. Four dose levels were explored: 8 Gy, 10 Gy, 12 Gy, and 14 Gy. The dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was defined as grade 4 neutropenia >15 days, grade 4 thrombopenia >28 days, and all other grade 4 nonhematologic toxic effects except nausea, vomiting, alopecia, mucositis, and reaction to autologous stem cell infusion. RESULTS Thirteen patients were included; only 1 DLT at the third escalated dose level (12 Gy) was observed, whereas 1 patient was treated at 14 Gy with no adverse events. The MTD was not reached. The rate of acute toxicity was low: 38% of grade 3-4 diarrhea, mucositis, or unexplained fever. Regarding the lungs, the mean dose administered was systematically less than 8 Gy. After a median follow-up of 55 months, 70% of participants were alive. Of these 13 patients, 38.5% were in very good partial response and 30.8% were in complete response. Three of them were progression-free. Six patients were long survivors, still alive after 55 months of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Total marrow irradiation provides good results with a good tolerance profile at first relapse in MM and makes it possible to increase the dose delivered to the planning target volume while sparing organs at risk. This technique could be discussed for all regimens before auto- or allo-stem cell rescue when TBI is required.

Abstract
Rapidly progressing relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients with compromised marrow have limited treatment options. Thus, non-myeloablative chemotherapy with a stem cell boost (SCB) may provide disease control and hematopoietic improvement as bridge to subsequent therapies. We identified 96 patients who received a SCB between January 2011 and December 2019 at the Mount Sinai Hospital. Patients had a median age of 64 years, received a median of 7 prior lines of therapy and 68 and 42% were triple-class and penta-drug refractory, respectively. Chemotherapy included melphalan (MEL) (n = 16), melphalan + carmustine (BCNU/MEL) (n = 52) or a variant of DCEP (dexamethasone, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, cisplatin) (n = 28). Median time to neutrophil recovery was 10 days and was significantly lower with DCEP (8 days) compared to MEL and BCNU/MEL (10-11 days) (p = 0.0047). Time to progression, progression-free survival and overall survival were 3.19, 2.7 and 8.38 months, respectively. The BCNU/MEL group had the highest response rate of 85% (p = 0.05), clinical benefit rate of 94% (p = 0.0014), progression-free survival of 3.3 months (p = 0.4) and overall survival of 8.7 months (p = 0.5). Sixty-six patients (69%) were bridged to new lines of therapy, including clinical trials. Non-myeloablative chemotherapy with SCB provides rapid disease control and marrow recovery with potential to receive further therapy.

Abstract
Total body irradiation (TBI) has been an essential component of the conditioning regimen in hematopoietic cell transplantation for many years. However, higher doses of TBI reduce disease relapse at the expense of more significant toxicities. Therefore, total marrow irradiation and total marrow and lymphoid irradiation have been developed to deliver organ-sparing targeted radiotherapy. Data from different studies show that TMI and TMLI can be safely administered in escalating doses in association with different chemotherapy conditioning regimen protocols, in situations with unmet needs, such as multiple myeloma, high-risk hematologic malignancies, relapsed or refractory leukemias, and elderly or frail patients, with low rates of transplant-related mortality. We reviewed the literature on applying TMI and TMLI techniques in autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in different clinical situations.

Total marrow irradiation (TMI): Addressing an unmet need in hematopoietic cell transplantation - a single institution experience review. Front Oncol 2022; 12:1003908. [PMID: 36263219 PMCID: PMC9574324 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1003908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose TMI utilizes IMRT to deliver organ sparing targeted radiotherapy in patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). TMI addresses an unmet need, specifically patients with refractory or relapsed (R/R) hematologic malignancies who have poor outcomes with standard HCT regimens and where attempts to improve outcomes by adding or dose escalating TBI are not possible due to increased toxicities. Over 500 patients have received TMI at this center. This review summarizes this experience including planning and delivery, clinical results, and future directions. Methods Patients were treated on prospective allogeneic HCT trials using helical tomographic or VMAT IMRT delivery. Target structures included the bone/marrow only (TMI), or the addition of lymph nodes, and spleen (total marrow and lymphoid irradiation, TMLI). Total dose ranged from 12 to 20 Gy at 1.5-2.0 Gy fractions twice daily. Results Trials demonstrate engraftment in all patients and a low incidence of radiation related toxicities and extramedullary relapses. In R/R acute leukemia TMLI 20 Gy, etoposide, and cyclophosphamide (Cy) results in a 1-year non-relapse mortality (NRM) rate of 6% and 2-year overall survival (OS) of 48%; TMLI 12 Gy added to fludarabine (flu) and melphalan (mel) in older patients (≥ 60 years old) results in a NRM rate of 33% comparable to flu/mel alone, and 5-year OS of 42%; and TMLI 20 Gy/flu/Cy and post-transplant Cy (PTCy) in haplo-identical HCT results in a 2-year NRM rate of 13% and 1-year OS of 83%. In AML in complete remission, TMLI 20 Gy and PTCy results in 2-year NRM, OS, and GVHD free/relapse-free survival (GRFS) rates of 0%, 86·7%, and 59.3%, respectively. Conclusion TMI/TMLI shows significant promise, low NRM rates, the ability to offer myeloablative radiation containing regimens to older patients, the ability to dose escalate, and response and survival rates that compare favorably to published results. Collaboration between radiation oncology and hematology is key to successful implementation. TMI/TMLI represents a paradigm shift from TBI towards novel strategies to integrate a safer and more effective target-specific radiation therapy into HCT conditioning beyond what is possible with TBI and will help expand and redefine the role of radiotherapy in HCT.

Long-Term Follow-Up of Multiple Myeloma Patients Treated with Tandem Autologous Transplantation Following Melphalan and Upon Recovery, Total Marrow Irradiation. Transplant Cell Ther 2022; 28:367.e1-367.e9. [PMID: 35534000 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2022.04.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2021] [Revised: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Total body irradiation in combination with melphalan for multiple myeloma (MM), was shown to be prohibitively toxic. To ameliorate toxicity, total marrow irradiation (TMI), was given as the sole ablative modality during the second cycle of tandem autologous stem cell transplant (TASCT) for MM patients on a phase I-II trial. STUDY DESIGN Patients with MM in response or with stable disease and ≤ 18 months from diagnosis received melphalan (MEL) 200 mg/m2 and ASCT (Cycle 1), and, after recovery, TMI and ASCT (Cycle 2) followed by maintenance with an IMiD and dexamethasone for up to 12 months. TMI doses were escalated from 1,000 cGy to 1,800 cGy by 200 cGy increments. RESULTS Fifty-four patients were to receive TASCT between 2004 and 2011; 8 patients received single ASCT due to patient or physician preference. The median time between melphalan and TMI was 65 days (range 47-125). Thirty patients (55•6%) received TASCT at the maximum tolerated dose of 1600 cGy. The complete and very good partial response rates were 48•1% and 22•2% following ASCT and maintenance. Median follow-up among survivors was 12.3 years (range: 9•2-15•5+). Progression free survival and overall survival at 10 years was 20•4% (95% CI 10•9-31•9) and 38•8% (95% CI: 25•9-51•5). Secondary neoplasms included (1 each) acute myeloid leukemia, papillary thyroid and prostate carcinoma, and melanoma, and we observed 1 case of ductal carcinoma in situ and 4 patients with non-melanoma skin cancers. CONCLUSION TMI as part of TASCT was well-tolerated and TASCT lead to a 20.4% PFS plateau. The inclusion of TMI as a conditioning regiment for MM prior to ASCT warrants further study in the context of modern induction and maintenance therapies.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) remains incurable due to relapse, although the use of proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, CD38-targeting antibodies, and autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT) significantly improve the clinical outcomes of patients with newly diagnosed MM. In recent years, the introduction of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR T-cell) therapy has brought hope to patients with refractory and relapsed MM. The graft-versus-myeloma effect of allogeneic SCT provides the possibility for curing a subset of MM patients. In this review, we summarize the recent advances and challenges of cellular immunotherapies for MM, focusing on auto-SCT, allogeneic SCT, and CAR T-cell approaches. We also discuss future directions, and propose a specific algorithm for cellular therapies for MM and probability of minimal residual disease-directed therapy.
