| Popis: | Background Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is the preferred consolidation strategy to treat eligible patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and related plasma cell dyscrasias. Given the increasing volume of patients and longer wait time, outpatient ASCT for MM is the standard of care at the Vancouver General Hospital. Patients and Methods Patients with MM, POEMS syndrome, and amyloidosis undergoing ASCT were included in this analysis. We analyzed patient characteristics, the number of patients requiring admission, duration of admission, 30-day and 100-day mortality, and overall survival. Results Between January 2007 and June 2016, 724 patients underwent 752 ASCTs. Of these, 702 were first ASCTs, 44 were second, and 6 were third. The median age was 60 years (interquartile range [IQR], 54-65 years). Reasons for ASCTs were MM (96.9%) amyloidosis (2.4%), and POEMS syndrome (0.7%). There were 431 (59.5%) males in this group. The median time from diagnosis to transplant was 5 months. Conditioning was melphalan 200 mg/m2 for 89.6% of the patients. Admission to the inpatient ward was required by 245 (32.6%) patients within the first 30 days. The median time to admission was 9 days post-transplant (IQR, 5-13 days). The median duration of admission was 6 days (IQR, 3-9 days). The day 100 all-cause mortality rate was 0.9%, and transplant-related mortality was 0.4%. Conclusion Outpatient ASCT is a safe and feasible treatment strategy with low transplant-related mortality. Overall resource utilization is significantly lower than inpatient ASCT: however, this requires a multidisciplinary approach with close follow-up. |
