BACKGROUND: Multiple myeloma (MM) and its precursor condition, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) have an increased risk of thrombotic events, especially during anti-myeloma treatment. Many different underlying causes for this hypercoagulability have been suggested, but current techniques to identify abnormalities in these patients are sparse and inefficient. The aim of this study was to assess the hypercoagulability in MGUS and MM patients through various coagulation analyses and identify changes in the MM patients throughout their treatment regimen.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Platelet-free plasma from 38 MM patients, 19 MGUS patients and 34 healthy controls were tested for hypercoagulability using calibrated automated thrombogram, a procoagulant phospholipid assay, a microvesicle-associated (MV) tissue factor (TF) assay, and a cell-free deoxyribonucleic acid (cf-DNA) assay as a surrogate measurement for neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).
RESULTS: MGUS and MM patients both had elevated thrombin generation and procoagulant phospholipid activity in comparison to the control subjects. MM, and partly MGUS, showed increased MV-TF activity, however, only MM had increased levels of the cf-DNA.
CONCLUSIONS: Here we demonstrated that hypercoagulability was present in patients with MGUS and MM through increased thrombin generation, possibly due to higher TF and procoagulant phospholipids (PPL) activity. This may be associated to MVs and, for MM patients, be attributed to procoagulant NETs activity; however, this remains to be determined.
