Abstract:
Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of lenalidomide with dexamethasone (LD) in the treatment of relapse/refractory lightchain amyloidosis. Methodology:Ten patients diagnosed relapse/refractory lightchain amyloidosis were enrolled in this retrospective study. Their clinical data were reviewed, the hematological and organ responses, treatment related adverse events were analyzed. Results:Seven males and three females were enrolled with a median age of 645(568,688)years old. Of seven evaluable patients, overall hematological response rate was 429%, including 143% with complete remission. Heart response was seen in two patients, none had renal response. All were alive and the overall survival and median progression free survival were not reached. Grade 3/4 adverse reaction rate was 30%. Conclusion:Lenalidomide with dexamethasone was effective and welltolerated as a salvage treatment for relapse/refractory lightchain amyloidosis.
