Background: Anaplastic multiple myeloma (AMM) is a very rare but distinct subtype of multiple myeloma (MM) with an extremely poor prognosis. Due to its rarity, AMM lacks detailed descriptions and clear definitions. Moreover, there is no consensus on the treatment and evidence suggests that AMM responds poorly to several novel therapies. We conducted a literature review and retrospective case series to determine clinical characteristics, pathological features, and outcomes of AMM.
Case Presentation: Published case reports and case series of AMM since 1983 were systematically extracted and reviewed. A total of 52 patients with AMM were reported in the PUBMED since 1983, including 26 males (50%) and 26 females (50%). The age ranged from 29 years old to 85 years old, with a mean age of 57.02 years old. Most of the patients presented with bone pain (23, 44.2%), fatigue (18, 34.6%), plasmacytoma (18, 34.6%) and weight loss (7, 13.5%). The median survival of the patients was 4 months. To investigate the outcomes of patients with AMM in the current era of treatment, a series of 14 patients with AMM diagnosed at our institute between December 2012 and July 2021was retrospectively analyzed. Our retrospective case series consisted of 12 males (85.7%) and 2 females (14.3%), with a mean age of 59 years old. Most of our AMM patients displayed bone lytic lesions as a common manifestation. The common cytogenetic abnormality was 1q amplification. All patients received standard combination chemotherapy consisting of proteasome inhibitors and/or immunomodulatory agents, and half of the patients underwent autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) for our 14 AMM patients were 0.84 years and 1.52 years, respectively, which was significantly worse than the regular MM patients treated at our institute from 2003-2013 who had a PFS of 2.28 years and OS of 4.92 years.
Conclusions: AMM is a very rare, morphologically distinct variant of MM. It has adverse cytogenetics and an aggressive course. It is often resistant to standard chemotherapy and presents with an extremely low survival rate.
Anaplastic multiple myeloma (AMM), also known as plasmablastic plasma cell myeloma, is an extremely rare disease with an aggressive clinical course and unfavorable prognosis. It was first described in 1983 by Foucar et al [1], who reported two patients who developed anaplastic myeloma associated with the extramedullary disease with a prominent intra-abdominal and retroperitoneal tumor mass. AMM can present de novo at disease onset, but can also transform from conventional plasma cell myeloma, and the transformation typically occurs between the first and fourth year of the diagnosis of multiple myeloma (MM). The prognosis of patients with AMM is extremely poor with current treatment and most of AMM patients live for only a few months after diagnosis [2]. The exact incidence of AMM is not clear. It was estimated that in approximately 2.6% of plasma cell myelomas, the morphology of the plasma cells was highly pleomorphic, quite anaplastic, and may resemble that of metastatic tumor cells. Due to the rarity of the disease, only a limited number of AMM cases have been reported and there is a lack of a systemic approach for the understanding and the management of this disease. In the current study, we conducted a literature review and performed a retrospective study of 14 AMM patients seen at our institute in an effort to further analyze the clinical and pathological features of AMM patients and to provide some suggestions for diagnosis and treatment.
Cases Presentation
Literature Review:
We searched PubMed for articles with the keywords: anaplastic myeloma and plasmablastic multiple myeloma; we then filtered for articles published in the English language and involved human patients since 1983. We included all original case reports and case series, and all articles were individually reviewed. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were extracted.
We searched PUBMED for publications reporting AMM case(s) between 1983 and 2021. We found twenty-three articles that met the criteria [1-23]. A total of 52 anaplastic myeloma cases were reported during the period between 1983 and 2021: 26 were male and 26 were female with the mean age being 57.02 years old (Table-1). AMM occurred in all ethnic groups. Unlike plasmablastic lymphoma, most AMM patients did not have pre-existing HIV conditions. The initial presentation of AMM in most patients consisted of fatigue (34.6%), bone pain (44.2%), and weight loss (13.5%). It is also interesting to note that thrombocytopenia was in the initial presentation in 9.6% of patients. Eighteen cases (34.6%) presented with extramedullary plasmacytoma involving right brachial plexus [4], pancreatic involvement [5], brain [8], soft tissue [18], intraperitoneal mass [11], liver [19], and left parotid region [23], etc. IgA was the most common M protein subtype (32.7%) and 1q amplification was the most prevalent cytogenic abnormality (23%). Patients with AMM were typically treated with standard regular MM regimens such as VCD (Bortezomib + Cyclophosphamide+ Dexamethasone), or VAD (Vincristine + Adriamycin+ Dexamethasone), and /or VTD (Bortezomib + Thalidomide + Dexamethasone), and in 17.3% of patients followed by consolidation with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Unfortunately, ~44% of patients with AMM did not survive the past 6 months and only 7.6% of patients survived over 24 months. The median survival was 4 months.

Cases Series:
To investigate the outcomes of patients with AMM in the current era of treatment, we performed a retrospective case study at our institute. The retrospective chart review was performed in accordance with the ethical standards of Duke University Institutional Review Board (IRB) Committees on human experimentation and was approved by the Duke IRB committee. We queried and searched Duke electronic medical records from December 2012 to July 2021 and identified 14 patients with AMM to be included for the study. The patient inclusion criteria are having a diagnosis of AMM confirmed at Duke; and having medical records available that include laboratory data at the time of diagnosis, treatment regiment, and survival status. Detailed information regarding clinical presentation, laboratory finding, imaging tests, and treatment were extracted and included: age at the time of diagnosis, gender, race, date of diagnosis, laboratory values, PET CT and other imaging, bone marrow biopsy (plasma cell percentage), disease stage (International Stage Index), cytogenetics (karyotype and FISH), treatment regimens including hematopoietic stem cell transplant, progression-free survival, and overall survival.
We identified 14 patients with AMM at our institute between December 2012 to July 2021. Male patients accounted for 85.7% of the cases with only 2 female patients in our cohort. The mean age at diagnosis was 59 years old, ranging from 46 to 85 years old. All ethnic groups (Caucasian, African American, Hispanic, and Asian) are affected. 9 patients (64.3%) presented with de novo AMM, whereas in 5 patients (35.7%) AMM was transformed from pre-existing myeloma and presented at the time of myeloma relapse. The majority of the AMM patients (12 patients, 85.7%) demonstrated extensive osseous lytic lesions and/or plasmacytoma. The diffuse fluorodeoxyglucose avidity and several bones and extramedullary lesions in one of the AMM patients were shown in the PET CT scan (Fig-1). IgA subtype accounted for 28.6% of the patients. Amplification of 1q occurred in 50% of the patients and is the most common genetic abnormality in AMM (Table-2). The tumor cells were primitive-appearing and anaplastic and could resemble poorly differentiated immunoblast-like cells (Fig-2). The infiltrating plasma cells were positive for CD138 with light chain restriction. The nuclear Ki-67 expression could be high, in some cases, the nuclear Ki-67 expression could reach over 90%, indicating a high proliferation fraction. The expression of CD117, cyclin D1, and CD56 could be highly variable (Fig-3) and the plasma cells could also be positive for CD20 (data not shown).

The neoplastic cells were positive for CD138 (A) and cytoplasmic lambda light chain (B), and negative for cytoplasmic kappa light chain (C). The neoplastic cells were positive for Ki67 (D), CD117 (E) but negative for CD56 (F).
Table-2: AMM: Patient Characteristics, Treatment, and Outcomes: Duke cases
AMM patients were treated with standard MM regimen including VRD (Bortezomib + Revlimid + Dexamethasone), or VCD (Bortezomib + Cyclophosphamide + Dexamethasone), and /or VD-PACE regimen. 7 patients (50%) received high dose melphalan conditioning followed by autologous HSCT. Despite receiving standard MM treatment, the median progression-free survival (PFS) for our 14 AMM patients was 0.84 years, and the median overall survival (OS) was 1.52 years.
We compared the treatment outcomes of our 14 AMM patients with a historical dataset of 393 regular MM patients treated at our institute from 2003 to 2013. The patient characteristics and treatment of our 393 regular MM patients were summarized in Table-3. Although our regular MM patients were treated 10 years earlier, the PFS and OS of the patients with AMM were significantly worse than those in patients with regular MM: PFS was 0.84 years and 2.28 years for AMM and regular MM, respectively (p=0.0364). The OS was 1.52years and 4.92 years for AMM and regular MM, respectively (p=0.0003) (Fig-4).

Discussion and Conclusions
In the current study, we performed a systematic literature review as well as retrospective cohort study in an effort to define clinical characteristics, prognosis, and outcomes of patients with AMM. We found that AMM affects both males and females and all ethnic groups. AMM occurs in a much younger patient population (median age of 57.02 years old) compared to conventional multiple myeloma (median age of 69 years old) [24]. Anemia was one of the most common presentations of AMM and thrombocytopenia occurred in 9.6% of AMM patients at presentation, which likely reflects the aggressiveness of the disease and the extensive bone marrow infiltration by anaplastic plasma cells [21]. AMM can develop de novo or transform from pre-existing regular multiple myeloma. In contrast to regular multiple myeloma, IgA was the most common M protein subtype (32.7%) and 1q amplification was the most prevalent cytogenic abnormality (23%). The prognosis of AMM is dismal and very few AMM patients survived past 24 months after the diagnosis.
In our case series, osseous involvement was very common in AMM patients. It is also interesting to note that in the literature reviews, 18 of the cases presented with extramedullary plasmacytoma (34.6%) located in the right brachial plexus [4], pancreatic involvement [5], brain [8], soft tissue [18], intraperitoneal mass [11], liver [19], and left parotid region [23], etc. Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is typically seen in MM patients at disease relapse or as an aggressive disease presentation. The plasma cells in EMP have an immature and plasma-plastic appearance when compared to the plasmacytoma with bone marrow involvement. There was a research that indicates that clonal mutations of TP53, RB1, FAK, and RAS genes have been presented in 50% of patients who have EMP presentation with MM [25]. In AMM, mutation of TP53 is high, which could possibly lead to increased EMP presentation. More research must be done in order to determine the significance of EMP in AMM patients and how this should be evaluated when developing a standard course of treatment.
The cellular origin of anaplastic multiple myeloma is considered to be immature plasma cells [26]. Morphologically, the diameter of anaplastic myeloma cells is significantly enlarged by approximately twofold. The atypical pleomorphic, multinucleated morphology of anaplastic myeloma cells can mimic multinucleated carcinoma. The anaplastic cells may simulate dysplastic megakaryocytes with bluish granular, basophilic cytoplasm with bizarre multilobed nuclei; the nuclei are hyperchromatic with abnormal distribution. Anaplastic myeloma cells have moderate to abundant basophilic cytoplasm, prominent nucleoli, and intranuclear basophilic inclusions (Fig-2). Therefore, the differential diagnosis for AMM includes metastatic carcinoma, acute leukemia/myeloid dysplastic syndrome with dysplastic megakaryocytes, and plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL). The distinction between AMM and PBL can be difficult. PBL is also a rare subtype of B-lymphoid malignancy, which has pathological features that can overlap with aggressive, mature B-cell lymphomas and plasma cell neoplasms [27]. There are a number of clinicopathological features that will support a diagnosis of AMM, such as renal dysfunction, significant paraprotein level, osteolytic lesions, hypercalcemia, and diffuse bone marrow involvement [28]. The current differential diagnosis between PBL and AMM is focused on the difference in clinical manifestations, such as M-protein levels, HIV infections, and osteolytic changes [29]. Additionally, with the widespread application of FISH and next-generation sequencing, the chromosomal and genetic abnormalities that is unique to AMM such as 1q amplification and translocation of t (11;14) have made it easier to distinguish PBL from AMM.
Currently, the genetic and molecular mechanisms driving the pathogenesis and the aggressiveness of AMM remain largely uncharacterized. Due to the rarity of the disease, no studies have ever been reported determining the differences in genetic/molecular pathways and/or immune signatures between AMM and regular MM. As shown in our current study, the common chromosomal and FISH abnormalities in AMM included 1q21 amplification, 17p(p53) deletion, t (4:14), and/or chromosome 13 anomalies. 1q amplification was observed in 50% of our case series. Cyclin kinase subunit 1B (CKS1B) gene is located at chromosomal locus 1q21 and was associated with aggressive disease progression and poor prognosis in MM, even after HSCT [30]. CKS1B expression was low to undetectable in healthy subjects and in patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), but significantly increased in patients with relapse/refractory MM [31]. CKS1B regulates the ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of p27Kip1 [32,33] and plays an important role in tumor cell proliferation, survival and drug resistance [31]. AMM was associated with a significantly higher prevalence of CKS1B amplification compared with regular MM (91% vs. 34% respectively) [10]. Whether CKS1B contributes to the pathogenesis of AMM remains to be determined.
AMM is associated with an overall poor prognosis [6]. Most AMM patients have an inadequate response to conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy [1,2,4,5,8,10,11,13,14,17,19,21,23]. In our case series, 66.7% patients experienced an unsatisfactory response to standard myeloma treatment regimens, that is VRD (Bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone) and VCD (Bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone). In two of our patients, VD-PACE regimen was used along with VRD prior to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) consolidation and was able to achieve remission for over 2 years. The utility of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy and bi-specific antibody in AMM remains to be determined.
In conclusion, our current report included 52 cases of AMM in literature review and 14 cases of AMM at our own institute, representing the largest case series of AMM ever reported. AMM is a highly malignant sub-type of myeloma with a bizarre morphology and is resistant to conventional therapy. Based on our own experience, aggressive induction chemotherapy combined with novel agents followed by consolidation with autologous stem cell transplant should be offered for patients with AMM. Additional molecular and genetic pathway studies are needed to better understand the pathophysiology. Importantly, clinical trials designed specifically for AMM are urgently needed to develop more effective treatment strategies and improve the prognosis and outcomes of patients with AMM.

On Tuesday, Ozuna's lawyer Antonio M. Sagardía addressed the rumors that have been swirling around his client's involvement in the death of queer Puerto Rican trapero Kevin Fret, who was fatally shot on his motorcycle on January 10 in Santurce, Puerto Rico. Accusations that the Aura singer was involved in Fret's murder emerged this week after El Vocero reported that Ozuna filed a complaint against Fret with the FBI. Primera Hora writes that in the summer of 2017, Fret used social media to threaten Ozuna with the release of a compromising video. Ozuna allegedly paid Fret $50,000, but Sargardía said that Ozuna later went to the FBI in Miami to denounce the extortion.
"The police should clarify the case that they're investigating so that people don't speculate," Sargardía continued.
Puerto Rican law enforcement did not release more details on the investigation of Fret's death. "We're still in the process of getting information from his email accounts and are not in a position to summon anyone until we get all the information that we have to analyze," Lieutenant Colonel Rolando Trinidad commented to Primera Hora. Trinidad leads the investigative division of the San Juan police.
A recent crime wave has hit Puerto Rico. Earlier this month, Bad Bunny and Residente visited governor Ricardo Rosselló to discuss the problem. Though the visit took place shortly after the death of Fret, it is not clear if the artists mentioned their fellow emcee in the discussion.
This is a developing story and Remezcla will update this post if more information becomes available.

Today, I am presenting this healthy and delicious Mooli ke Patte ki Sabzi that is a great way to use the nutritious radish greens. I have followed this recipe by Chef Harpal Singh Sokhi.
I have this aversion to Mooli or Radish because of its pungent taste and strong aroma. However, my Vaidya (Ayurvedic Doctor) has asked me to eat Mooli and so I have recently taken to making this vegetable at home, albeit reluctantly. So far, I have been cooking the radish itself as Mooli Paratha and as Roasted Red Radishes.
However, my colleagues at work have been recommending that I also make a simple stir-fry of radish and radish leaves for a while now. Yesterday I found this wonderful bunch of radish leaves with baby radishes and decided to try a radish leaves stir-fry.
Next, I did what I do best, browsed the internet to see if I can spice up the radish leaves stir-fry a bit and came across this recipe for Mooli ke Patte ki Sabzi by Chef Harpal Singh Sokhi that uses a masala of poppy seeds, cumin, mustard, and green chillies.
In my mind, this masala added a bit of oomph to a plain curry and so I tried this Mooli ke Patte ki Sabzi forthwith. Indeed the result was a delicious dry sabzi that paired marvellously well with rotis.
I just used the baby radishes that were attached to the leaves. I would recommend that you add a medium-size radish to the curry to give it some volume. The radish measures in the recipe assume that you will use this additional radish.
I absolutely loved this recipe for Mooli ke Patte ki Sabzi by Chef Harpal Singh Sokhi. It is spicy, has a creaminess from the poppy seeds, and helps temper the pungent taste of the radish.
Dry roast the cumin, mustard, poppy seeds and green chillies till the poppy seeds change colour.
Transfer into a chutney grinder attachment and add about 3-4 tbsp of water.
Set aside for 10 to 15 minutes to allow the poppy seeds to soak a bit.
Separate the Radish Greens from the Radish.
Wash and dry the radish greens.
Chop the radish greens to fine pieces.
Wash the radish and peel the outer layer.
Chop the radish into small pieces.
In a kadhai, using a medium flame, heat the oil. If you are using Mustard Oil, see notes.
Add the hing, ginger and garlic.
Stir-fry till the garlic turns golden.
Add the radish pieces and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes.
Add the ground masala, salt, and 2-3 tbsp water.
Stir-fry till the masala dries a bit.
Add the radish greens and mix well.
Cook for 1-2 minutes till the radish greens wilt.
Take off the heat. Cover and set aside for 5 minutes.
Serve warm with hot rotis.
Heat the mustard oil to smoking point till it becomes pale in colour.
Take the Kadhai off the heat, and let the oil cool a bit.
I would recomend that you make the Poppy Seed-Cumin-Mustard-Chilli masala as the first step so that the poppy seeds can soak while you get on with other tasks.
Over medium, heat a pan.
Add cumin, mustard, poppy seeds and green chillies and dry roast till the poppy seeds change colour to light brown.
Transfer the roasted dry spices into a small grinder.
Add 3-4 tbsp of water the dry spices and let the poppy seeds soak for about 10 minutes.
When the poppy has soaked a bit, grind the masala into a fine paste. You may need to add a tad bit more water while grinding.
Cut close to the top of the baby radishes to separate them from the radish greens.
If the stems are tender you can use them, else separate the stems from the greens.
Wash the radish greens well and dry them a bit before cutting them to small pieces.
Wash the radish well to get rid of the dirt and dry them.
Peel the outer layer of the radish and chop it into small pieces.
In a kadhai, using a medium flame, heat the oil. If you are using Mustard Oil, heat it to smoking point, and take the kadhai off the heat and let the oil cool a bit before placing it back on flame. If you cooking in smoking hot oil, everything will burn in a second.
To the heated oil, add the asafoetida, chopped ginger and chopped garlic.
Next, add the chopped radish pieces and fry for a couple of minutes.
To the fried radish pieces, add the ground masala, salt, and 2-3 tbsp water.
Cook till the poppy seed masala dries a bit.
Before adding the radish greens, turn the heat down to low as the leaves wilt in a jiffy.
Now, add the radish greens and mix well.
Cook the greens for a couple of minutes till they wilt.
Immediately take the kadhai off the flame.
Cover and set aside for 5 minutes to let the leaves cook in the residual heat.
Serve warm Mooli ke Patte ki Sabzi with hot rotis.
Do do, Vidya. They were a revelation for me, Vidya.

is anyone interested in recipes other than middle eastern and indian ones? i cook a lot of different cuisines and would be happy to share if anyone is interested.
My 2 cents: Put you recipie under a "Catigory" (snacks& appitisers, desserts, fish, meat, ect). Will make it easy to find and post new.
I vote for African dishes. Any would be appreciated (my horizons certainly need to be broadened)!
African sounds like a good start!
I'm still salivating over here, patiently awaiting a mouth watering recipe to satisfy my rumbling stomach!!
Yeah i would like to pick up some tips, but you see i already know how to cook and i can't follow anyones instructions.
Sorry i'll have to give it a miss.
Some of my favorite recipes are Mexican & South American. I have a couple that I'll post and hope a few people have some to offer me.
Yeah, Whats wrong with English dishes? Potatoes are great!!! You can mash em. Boil em. Roast em. Chip em. Waffle em. Or burn em like me mam!!!lol. Sadly im on the 'Asian dish' band wagon havin a Pakistani husband. But hey, I make a mean aloo gobee!
Alyia....this is a good idea...please do!!!
Fry bread aka Navaho taco's are great.
You even get to "pat" the pita bread before you fry it. Great for kids...they love it.

To the guy who asked "why is a Scot writing invectives about an American style guide? That's like having a French writer comment on a style guide from French Canada": I've been an American citizen longer than you've been alive, and I have 25 years' experience of teaching about language at the University of California.
To the various people who assert that I am a disappointed style-guide author plugging a rival text ("the article's author has his own competing book to flog"): I haven't written anything that could plausibly be recommended to a freshman taking English composition. When people ask me for recommendations, I tell them to look at the very sensible and intelligent book Style: Toward Clarity and Grace by Joseph Williams.
William Strunk was a professor of English at Cornell about a hundred years ago, and E.B. White, later the much-admired author of Charlotte's Web, took English with him in 1919, purchasing as a required text the first edition, which Strunk had published privately.
Strunk was a professor. Cornell employed Strunk. Strunk taught English. A century has passed. Strunk published Elements. Strunk paid the bill. The edition number was 1. Cornell admitted E. B. White. White took English. The year was 1919. White bought Elements. Many years passed. White wrote Charlotte's Web. People admired White.
I hope that clears up the matter of what I meant with all my relative clauses and stuff. Never again will I exceed a sentence length of 5 words when (or rather if) writing for Fark readers. But for now, I'm switching Fark off.

Kelly Wright grew up in northern New Jersey and on a farm in western Missouri, where she learned how to hook and braid rugs (not to mention shear a sheep!) at an early age.
After earning her B.A. from NYU in 1990, she received a Fulbright Scholarship to study in Berlin, Germany, where she completed an M.A. and an M.B.A. In 2012 she started her company, D.K. Wright Construction, to offer rug-making instruction, supplies and patterns to the European market. She likes to think of her company as a way to combine technical skills with artistic expression, to establish punchneedle rug hooking, traditional rug hooking, rug braiding and wool applique as an accepted part of European needlework and to make people happy by giving them a chance to fill their homes and hearts with warmth, colour and wool! She is known for her illustrative style and her ability to combine multiple techniques.
She has written several instructional pamphlets and her first book of punchneedle projects is scheduled to come out with Stiebner publishing in early 2019. She is a member of ATHA and TIGHR.
Kelly runs a studio and online store outside of Munich, Germany specialising in wool, wool fabric and rug making supplies.
Interest in punch needle has increased so much that she became a certified Oxford Punch Needle Rug Hooking instructor in 2018 and also has a line of hand-dyed rug wool which she dyes in her studio.
She lives with her family (and collie) in view of the alps south of Munich.
