Diagnosis of Waldenström Macroglobulinemia
Diagnosis requires:
- Histological/Cytological findings
- Flow cytometry parameters
- Molecular marker

- Longer time to response- Lower rates of major or VGPR- Shorter PFS
- not associated with worse or better OS

Role of plasma cells in Waldenström Macroglobulinemia
• Plasma cell infiltration in WM: 5-10%
• Monotypic expression (kappa or lambda intracellular)
• They would present MYD88 mut in > 90% WM cases
(Treon demonstrated existence of
mutation in CD138 cells positive)
• IgM levels related to plasmatic component

• The aim of the treatment in WM is destroying lymphoplasmacytic compartmentbut only an 0-7% patients achieve CR
• There may be another component in the pathogenesis of the disease
• The compartment of plasma cells remains after the treatment and could be theresponsible of the IgM persistence .

• Immunochemotherapy remains the standard of treatment inmost patients with MW
• Ibrutinib +/- Rituximab is effective in first line and also insubsequent lines
• CXCR4 mutated patients show a slower response to ibrutinib.
• New targeted therapies open new paths for refractory patients
• The role of the plasma cells and the use of daratumumab in MWtherapy is under investigation.
