Renal impairment (RI) is common in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and is associated with poor prognosis. The Australia and New Zealand Myeloma Registry was used to assess > 1000 newly diagnosed MM patients, of whom 383 had RI at diagnosis. Patients who underwent autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) despite RI had improved survival; potential factors for an inferior outcome include suboptimal use of bortezomib and ASCT.Background: Renal impairment (RI) is a common complication of multiple myeloma (MM) and remains a poor prognostic factor despite improved survival with newer therapies. Patients and Methods: We evaluated baseline characteristics, treatment, and outcomes of newly diagnosed MM patients with RI at diagnosis in the Australia and New Zealand Myeloma and Related Diseases Registry over 5 years to April 2018; we compared patients with RI (estimated glomerular filtration rate [ eGFR] = 60. In autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) analyses, patients aged 70 years and younger and >= 1 year from diagnosis were included. Results: Overall, 36% of patients with newly diagnosed MM had RI; they were older, had more advanced disease and comorbidities, and worse performance status. Bortezomib-based induction therapy was most commonly used, although administered to fewer RI patients, despite similar response rates. Patients with RI were less likely to receive ASCT; however, recipients had longer progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Patients with RI had shorter OS and PFS after adjusting for age. In ASCT recipients with RI versus no RI, there was no difference in PFS and OS. Conclusion: Our findings in "real world" MM patients with RI confirm that patient-, disease-, and treatment-related factors (such as suboptimal bortezomib and ASCT use), and delays in commencing therapy, might contribute to poorer outcomes, and support the use of ASCT in patients with RI.
