| Description | The aim of the work was: 1) To study the incidence of the chromosomal aberrations known as adverse prognostic factors in MM - deletion of 13q14 (RB1), deletion of 17p13 (p53), amplification of 1q21 (CKS1B) and translocation t(4;14) in a group of 40 patients with relapsed MM. 2) To compare the prognostic and predictive significance of these unfavorable chromosomal aberrations in patients with relapsed MM treated with thalidomide or bortezomib (Velcade) based regimens. |
