Overview

Multiple myeloma is one of the most common haematological diseases of variable course ranging from aggressive to indolent chronic forms. Prognostic stratification is based on cytogenetics as well as newer methodologies including flow cytometry. The CD45 antigen could be one prognostic factor which could specify disease risk of at diagnosis. 71 patients in our study sample were divided according to the intensity of CD45 expression and the group with lower CD45 expression had significantly higher risk of relapse within 12 months 62% vs. 25 % (p = 0.0011). There was no significant difference in the demographic parameters (age, sex), 1st line treatment with autologous transplantation and complete remissions after 1st line treatment or cytogenetic findings. We believe that CD45 expression could become one of the prognostic factors or one of the factors that determine the need for maintenance therapy in patients with multiple myeloma. We recommend that these results be confirmed on a larger sample or within a multi-centre study.

Key words:
