During the last 15 years, the outcome of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) has improved significantly as a result of therapy with novel drugs. 1 Up to 75–90% of fit patients reach CR or very good partial response according to the IMWG criteria. 2 Nevertheless, most of the patients suffer from relapse, indicating the presence of minimal residual disease (MRD). 2 Indeed, highly sensitive methods for detection of MRD, such as multicolor flow cytometry (MFC), allele-specific oligonucleotide PCR (ASO-PCR) and next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based assays, enable detection of residual tumor cells even in patients achieving clinical CR. 3–5 Presence of MRD in these patients is associated with a worse PFS and overall survival. 2–5 Recently, the IMWG has acknowledged these results in the new consensus criteria for response assessment in MM, which now includes MRD diagnostics when patients have reached CR and MRD negativity as the deepest response. 2 Along with the new consensus criteria, the IMWG pointed out that circulating tumor cells (CTCs) should be investigated for their value as a biomarker for response and prognosis since CTCs have been found in the PB of most patients at the time of diagnosis, and their level was identified as an independent prognostic factor. 2 In this study, we performed a longitudinal quantitative analysis of CTCs and malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow (BM) in MM patients treated with novel agents and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) using a highly sensitive ASO-PCR (⩽ 10− 6). We aimed to examine if CTCs could be used as a minimal invasive biomarker for response to therapy beyond MRD diagnostics that are usually performed when patients reach CR. Samples were collected from patients who were treated within the open-label, randomized, multicenter phase III clinical trial MM5 for newly diagnosed MM patients of the German-speaking Myeloma Multicenter Group (GMMG, EudraCT no. 2010-019173-16), 6 and who reached CR or suspected CR until spring 2014 (Table 1; N= 41; 104 PB; 29 BM). BM samples were collected at diagnosis and at the time of CR or suspected CR (CR N= 18/29), and PB samples were collected at diagnosis and after the induction therapy (IT: PAd or VCD), ASCT and consolidation therapy (Cons.)(CR N= 33/104; Table 1). Additional 20 PB samples (at diagnoses and/or after IT, eight pairs) of 11 patients treated within the HOVON-65/GMMG-
