Abstrakt: In patients with multiple myeloma (MM) not-eligible for autologous haematopoietic cell transplantation (autoHCT), a simplified frailty index (SFI) identifies frail patients at risk for poor outcomes, but data are limited for transplant-eligible patients. In this registry-based retrospective study, we used an adapted version of the SFI to determine the prevalence of frailty in patients ≥65 years of age with MM undergoing autoHCT. Out of 5563 patients, 37.9% of patients were classified as frail and although they had increased non-relapse mortality (NRM) and inferior overall survival, the NRM at 100 days remained low (<2%) compared with non-frail patients.
