What is Waldenström macroglobulinemia?
Waldenström macroglobulinemia“A disease with two problems”
Gertz et al. The Oncologist 2000;5:63-67
Lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate
Monoclonal IgM protein
– Lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate (usually intertrabecular)
– Immunophenotype - surface IgM+, CD19+, CD20+, CD79a+ and PAX5+. CD5−, CD10−, CD23−.
– exclude CLL and mantle cell lymphoma
– del(6)(q21) is the most common genetic abnormality seen
Waldenström macroglobulinemiaMorphology and Immunophenotype
Waldenström macroglobulinemia
Monoclonal IgM
• Symptoms related to the monoclonal IgM protein are attributable to - – its characteristics in the
circulation, – its interaction with
various body tissues when deposited,
– and its autoantibody activity.
MYD88 Mutations in Waldenström macroglobulinemia
Waldenström macroglobulinemia – presenting
symptoms• 217 patients with serum monoclonal
IgM protein ≥ 3 g/dl and > 20% bone marrow involvement - – Asymptomatic (27%)– Anemia (38%), – Hyperviscosity (31%), – B symptoms (23%), – Bleeding (23%) – Neurological symptoms (22%)

Time to developing WM and Survival in patients with Indolent WM or IgM
MGUS
Baldini L et al. JCO 2005;23:4662-4668
(— MGUS; ···IWM)MGUS (217 patients) and indolent Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (201 patients) groups
Time to evolution Overall survival
Risk of progression from IgM MGUS to WM or another B-cell malignancy
Kyle R A et al. Blood 2003;102:3759-3764
The overall average risk for progression is approximately 1.5% per year.
Survival of 587 symptomatic patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia
Morel P et al. Blood 2009;113:4163-4170
Who needs treatment?
Patient 1• 66 year old man• Went for an executive physical – in good health
with no symptoms• Found to be mildly anemic (Hgb 12.8g/dl). Other
blood counts – normal• Also noted to have increased total protein with an
increased gammaglobulin level.• Monoclonal IgM – 1.4 g/dl• Bone marrow biopsy – 20% involvement by
lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma• CT scan – no lymph nodes
Patient 2
• 67 year old man• Severe fatigue, nausea, visual
difficulties, increasing confusion and sleepiness, gums bleed easily.
• Anemic (Hgb 8.8g/dl). Platelets decreased to 96,000.
• Ulcers have developed on his ankles• Monoclonal IgM – 6.6 g/dl. Viscosity –
5.8• Bone marrow biopsy – 85% involvement
by lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma• CT scan – enlarged liver and spleen and
multiple bulky lymph nodes in the abdomen
Many treatment options
• Watch and wait• Single agent rituximab• Chemoimmunotherapy combinations• Plasmapheresis• Clinical trials with new agents• Stem cell transplantation
• Which approach is best?
Does everyone need treatment at diagnosis?
García-Sanz et al. Brit J Haematol. 115: 575-582, 2001
Watch and wait in Patients with Waldenström's macroglobulinemia
Half of the patients who had no symptoms had not yet been treated at 3 years after their diagnosis
10% of the patients had not yet been treated at 10 years
What clinical findings suggest that treatment should be
started?• Fever, night sweats, or weight loss. • Lymphadenopathy or splenomegaly.• Hemoglobin ≤ 10 g/dL or a platelet count
< 100 x 10(9)/L due to marrow infiltration. • Complications such as hyperviscosity
syndrome, symptomatic sensorimotor peripheral neuropathy, systemic amyloidosis, renal insufficiency, or symptomatic cryoglobulinemia.
Kyle et al. Semin Oncol. 2003 Apr;30(2):116-20
Before starting therapy –
Does the patient have hyperviscosity and do they
need plasmapheresis?
Plasmapheresis for Waldenström's patients with hyperviscosity
• Symptoms of hyperviscosity – – Visual deterioration– Neurological symptoms– Bleeding
• Rarely seen with IgM <4g/dL
Before plasmapheresis - optic disc edema (arrowheads), central retinal hemorrhages (bold arrows), and venous “sausaging” (thin arrows).
Menke et al. Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci. 2008Mar;49(3):1157-60.
Efficacy of Plasmapheresis for Waldenström's patients with
hyperviscosity
Initial treatment for untreated symptomatic WM
patients
Common Treatments used as initial therapy for WM
• Purine analogue based combinations – – FCR/FR
• Alkylating agent based combinations – – R-CHOP– DRC– R-Bendamustine
• Bortezomib based combinations –– BDR
• Rituximab alone
Purine analogue based combinations –
FCR/FRFludarabine, cyclophosphamide, rituximab (FCR) –
43 untreated, symptomatic WM patientsORR 79% - 12% CRs, 21% PRsEFS – 50.1 months44% had prolonged neutropenia
Tedeschi et al, Cancer. 2011 Jul 5.
Fludarabine, rituximab (FR) – 43 symptomatic WM patientsORR- 95% - 5% CRs, 81% PRsPFS – 51.2 months63% had ≥ grade 3 neutropenia,
thrombocytopenia or infection.Treon et al. Blood. 2009 Apr
16;113(16):3673-8.
Leleu X et al. JCO 2009;27:250-255
Increased incidence of transformation and myelodysplasia
in WM patients treated with nucleoside analogs.
193 – nucleoside analogue therapy136 – other therapy110 – no therapy
5% transformation and 2% MDS in NA group0.4% transformation in other groups
Alkylating agent based combinations – R-CHOP
Prospective randomized trial of CHOP compared to R-CHOP in WM patients.64 patients with untreated LPL/WMR-CHOP – 34 patients, CHOP – 30 patients
Higher ORR for R-CHOP (94 vs 67%, p=0.0085)Longer TTF - median of 63 months for R-CHOP vs 22 months for CHOP (p=0.0033)No major differences in treatment-associated toxicity
Buske et al. Leukemia. 2009 Jan;23(1):153-61.
Alkylating agent based combinations – DRC
72 patients with untreated symptomatic WM received Dex 20 mg IV, rituximab 375 mg/m2 IV on day 1 and cyclophosphamide 100 mg/m2 orally bid on days 1 to 5 (total dose, 1,000 mg/m2). Repeated every 21 days for 6 months.
ORR – 83% (95% CI, 73%-91%), including 7% CR, 67% PR, and 9% minor responses. 2-year PFS for all patients was 67%9% of patients - grade 3 or 4 neutropenia
Dimopoulos et al. J Clin Oncol. 2007 Aug 1;25(22):3344-9.
Comparative outcomes following CP-R, CVP-R, and CHOP-R in
Waldenström's macroglobulinemia.
Retrospective single institution study – CHOP-R (n = 23), CVP-R (n = 16), or CP-R (n = 19)
ORR and CR rates : CHOP-R (ORR, 96%; CR, 17%); CVP-R (ORR 88%; CR 12%); CP-R (ORR, 95%; CR, 0%); p= NS.
More treatment-related neuropathy and febrile neutropenia in patients treated with CVP-R and CHOP-R versus CP-R.
Ioakimidis et al. Clin Lymphoma Myeloma. 2009 Mar;9(1):62-6.
Alkylating agent based combinations – R-Bendamustine
30 patients with WM – bendamustine 90 mg/m2 I.V. on days 1, 2 and rituximab 375 mg/m2 I.V. on day 1. 6 patients received bendamustine with ofatumumab 1000 mg I.V. on day 1. Median number of treatment cycles was 5. ORR - 83.3%, with 5 VGPR and 20 PR. Median PFS was 13.2 months. Prolonged myelosuppression was more common in patients who received prior nucleoside analogues
