Renal response criteria in myeloma cast nephropathy
1. Why do we need them?
2. What do they represent?
3. How are they developed ?
4. How are validated?
Why do we need renal response criteria for MM?
• RI one of the most common and serious complications of MM
• We have multiple therapies with different effects on renal function
• We need to evaluate therapies and strategies that also improve renal function and patients’ quality of life
Past Renal response criteria in MM
1. Alexanian R, et al Arch Intern Med 1990;150: 1693-5.2. Blade J, et al Arch Intern Med 1998; 158:1889-93.3. Knudsen LM, et al Eur J Haematol 2000;65:175-81.4. Kastritis E, et al Haematologica 2006
• Renal response based on reduction of creatinine levels only• Sustained reduction to <1.5 mg/dl 1-4
• Renal responses in 24% - 73% 1-4
• Mostly patients treated with alkylators, high dose dexamethasone, thalidomide and only few with bortezomib1-4
Current renal response criteria in MM

Myeloma renal response criteria
• Myeloma associated renal damage is usually cast nephromathy but..
– MIDD or amyloidosis or other damage may also be present..
• No histologic response criteria may apply (?)
• Only functional response criteria my be used (?)
What do these criteria represent
• Functional improvement
• No or very few data on histology/pathology
• Strong association with renal response and FLC reduction
• Probably not a strong association with OS
Have these criteria helped us?
• Helped identify the best available therapies for MM patients with RI
– Bortezomib vs other therapies
• Helped evaluate additional aspects of anti-MM therapy
Studies using renal response criteria
• Studies evaluating renal response using current criteria: 46

Simplified criteria ?
• Patients who presented with stage 5 RI (eGFR<15 ml/min or on dialysis) should double their eGFR and improve to at least stage 4 RI (eGFR 15-29 ml/min) or become independent of dialysis
• Patients with stage 4, increase their eGFR by at least 50% and improve to at least stage 3 (eGFR 30-59 ml/min).

Evaluation of different therapies for renal response by different criteria
How can we improve the current renal response criteria
• Do we need new criteria? – Based on creatinine?
– Based on new biomarkers?
– Do we need to incorporate RIFLE / AKIN ?
– Add urine tests ??
• Is 60 ml/min threshold justified ?
• Should we further adjust for age ?
• Should we consider a “renal progression” category?
• Is survival a valid end point for renal response criteria development?
✓ Renal response : in 60% of patients (including 50% major Rrenal) and 34% of patients ondialysis became dialysis independent.
✓ Median time to Rrenal was one month - Median time to dialysis independence: 2 months.
✓ Lower levels of NGAL (p=0.009) and CysC (p=0.014) were associated with higherprobability of major Rrenal among patients with severe RI but not on dialysis, whilebaseline eGFR was not associated with higher probability for major Rrenal (p=0.346).
Biomarkers to predict Renal response
N=50 patients with eGFR < 30
Dimopoulos MA et al EHA 2018
Implementing current criteria in clinical practice
• Should we change or modify therapy if renal responses not obtained ?
• Should we discuss additional tests (renal biopsy??) if the renal response is not adequate?
• Should we use the current criteria as end points for clinical trials ?
• Are these criteria applicable in RRMM also?
To summarize
• Current renal response criteria have limitations but have helped us evaluate several therapies in the context of RI in MM
• Developing new renal response criteria should be considered following a targeted approach
• Perhaps we should consider adopting biomarkers

✓ N=82 newly diagnosed MM patients with severe RI✓ Both NGAL and CysC were higher in patients requiring dialysis (median NGAL: 308 vs 153 ng/mL,
p<0.001, median CysC:4.99 vs 2.73 mg/L, p=0.001).✓ Renal response (Rrenal) was achieved in 60% of patients (including 50% major Rrenal) and 34%
of patients on dialysis became dialysis independent.✓ Median time to Rrenal was one month and median time to dialysis independence was 2 months.✓ Lower levels of NGAL (p=0.009) and CysC (p=0.014) were associated with higher probability of
major Rrenal among patients with severe RI but not on dialysis, while baseline eGFR was notassociated with higher probability for major Rrenal (p=0.346).
✓ By ROC analysis, in patients with severe RI but not on dialysis, NGAL <130 ng/ml was stronglyassociated with major Rrenal (86% vs 24% at 3 months, p<0.001; Figure 2).
✓ Regarding CysC, levels <2.6 mg/L were associated with higher probability and shorter time tomajor Rrenal (p=0.012).
✓ Both NGAL and CysC had no predictive value for patients under dialysis. None of them wasassociated with dialysis independence.
✓ In multivariate analysis performed in patients not on dialysis, that included age, NGAL, CysC andeGFR, only NGAL<130 ng/ml was significantly associated with major Rrenal (HR 5, 95% CI 2-18,p=0.01).
• A renal response was observed in 16 (45.7%) of the 35 patients in the ITT group, with five (14.2%), four (11.4%) and seven (20%) achieving a Crrenal Prrenal and Mrrenalrespectively.
• The median time to a renal response was 28 days and the median time to best renal response was 157 days
