Popis: A rapid and deep haematologic response is fundamental in order to improve outcomes of patients with AL amyloidosis. We evaluated the impact of timing and depth of haematologic response at early time points (at 1 and 3 months from the start of therapy) in 227 consecutive previously untreated AL patients, who received bortezomib-based primary therapy. After 1 month of therapy, 30.5% had ≥VGPR, 28% PR and 36% no response (NR), with 11% having iFLC
