Abstract:
Objective:To explore and compare 4-color and 8-color fluorescence antibody panels for detecting minimal residual disease of multiple myeloma patients after therapy.
Methods:One 8-color antibody panel was built including CD38 and CD138 for the identification of plasma cells (PCs) , membrane antigen CD45, CD19, CD56 and CD117, cytoplasmic Kappa (cκ) and Lambda (cλ) light chain antigen. Six tubes of 4-color panels were built, among them, membrane antigen CD45/CD19, CD56/CD117, CD19/CD56 and light chains were analyzed combined by CD38/CD138 for PCs gate in the tubes M1-3 and tube C-κ/λ, respectively; CD19 or CD45 and cκ/cλ light chains were detected in the tube MC1-CD38 for CD38/SSC identified PCs gate and tube MC2-CD138 for CD138/SSC identified PCs gate separately. Twenty normal volunteer bone marrows and seventy-three specimens from multiple myeloma patients after complete remission were measured and analyzed.
Results:MRD positive samples were discriminated in 82.19% of the specimen evaluated through either abnormal plasma cells (aPCs) or clonal plasma cells (cPCs) by 8-color antibody panel. Among of them, consistency was 89.04%. The median percentage of cPCs was 0.105%. The lowest sensitivity of experiment was 0.004%. Percentage of PCs identified by CD38/ SSC gate was higher than that by CD38/CD138 (P<0.001) and CD138/SSC gate (P=0.001) apparently. The lowest MRD positive rate was found in tube C (65.75%) , which lower than 8-color panel obviously (P=0.024) . The percentages of aPCs measured by tube M2-56/117 were significantly lower than other tubes (P=0.014) . MRD positive rate determined by cPCs was higher than that by aPCs both in the tube MC1-CD38 and tube MC2-CD138, whose concordance rate were 68.49% and 79.45%, respectively. Compared with 8-color panel, tube MC2-CD138 the best choice among six tubes of 4-color panels, which has the best sensitivity, accuracy and negative predicted value, higher positive predicted value and specificity. Tube M1-45/19 was the second choice.
Conclusions:CD38/CD138 are the best markers for gating PCs. Membrane antigen and cκ/cλ detected simultaneously is a better method for MM MRD detection and 8-color antibody panel is an ideal approach. Two tubes of 4-color antibody combination, M1-45/19 and MC2-CD138 are recommended in the 4-color panels.
