Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and survival prognosis of patients with triple/quad-class exposed relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma(RRMM).Methods:The clinical data of patients with triple/quad-class exposed RRMM from eight centers in Shanxi Province between May 2017 and May 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.Overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method,and factors affecting survival were examined by the Cox proportional hazards model and Log-rank test.Results:Among the 112 patients with triple-class exposure,16 were quadruple-class exposed.The detection rates of high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities and extramedullary lesions in patients with triple-class exposure were 57.1%and 36.6%,respectively,while those in patients with quadruple-class exposure were 87.5%and 62.5%,respectively.The median PFS and OS of patients with triple-class expos-ure were 5.6 months and 12.2 months,respectively,while those of patients with quadruple-class exposure were 9.4 months and 16.9 months,respectively.Cox model analysis showed that extramedullary lesions and multi-line treatment(≥3 lines)were independent risk factors for the survival of patients with triple-class exposed RRMM(P<0.05).Previous autologous stem cell transplantation,subsequent con-ventional drug treatment,and B-cell maturation antigen(BCMA)chimeric antigen receptor T-cell(CAR-T)treatment were protective factors(P<0.05).After triple-class drug resistance,the Log-rank test verified that BCMA CAR-T treatment significantly prolonged the median PFS of patients compared to conventional drug treatment(9.4 months vs.5.2 months,P=0.026 9),whereas the difference in OS was not statistic-ally significant(16.9 months vs.7.9 months,P=0.263 4).Conclusions:Patients with triple/quad-class exposed RRMM have a poor prognosis,and BCMA CAR-T cell therapy can improve survival in patients with triple-class drug-resistant RRMM.

AIM:To prepare radix scutellariae mi-croemulsion gel and investigate its therapeutic ef-fect on chronic eczema based on the previous re-search of radix scutellariae self microemulsion.METHODS:The gel matrix and humectant were op-timized by single factor method and response sur-face method to obtain the formula and preparation technique of the gel.The Franz diffusion cell meth-od was used to evaluate the transdermal proper-ties of microemulsion and microemulsion gel in vi-tro.By establishing a chronic eczema model in the mouse ear,the swelling degree,swelling inhibition rate,pathological changes and tumor necrosis fac-tor a(TNF-a),Interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and interleukin-6(IL-6)of radix scutellariae microemulsion gel were measured,to investigate the therapeutic ef-fect on chronic eczema in mice.RESULTS:The physi-cal and chemical properties of radix scutellariae mi-croemulsion gel were stable.Compared with micro-emulsion,the microemulsion gel had better trans-dermal performance.The cumulative transdermal amount of baicalein and wogonin,the main compo-nents of microemulsion gel,was 1.85 times and 2.77 times of that of microemulsion respectively.Moreover,the steady flow rate and permeability co-efficient of microemulsion gel significantly in-creased,and the lag time significantly shortened.Pharmacodynamic study showed that compared with the model group,the radix scutellariae micro-emulsion gel could significantly reduce the ear swelling of mice(P＜0.05),and the serum inflamma-tory factor TNF-a,IL-1β and IL-6 reduced content by over 37％.Compared with the radix scutellaria aqueous extract and aqueous extract gel,the treat-ment of chronic eczema was better.CONCLUSION:The preparation process of radix scutellaria micro-emulsion gel is feasible,with strong transdermal property,and a significant therapeutic effect on chronic eczema.

AIM: To prepare radix scutellariae microemulsion gel and investigate its therapeutic effect on chronic eczema based on the previous research of radix scutellariae self microemulsion. METHODS: The gel matrix and humectant were optimized by single factor method and response surface method to obtain the formula and preparation technique of the gel. The Franz diffusion cell method was used to evaluate the transdermal properties of microemulsion and microemulsion gel in vitro. By establishing a chronic eczema model in the mouse ear, the swelling degree, swelling inhibition rate, pathological changes and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin - 6 (IL-6) of radix scutellariae microemulsion gel were measured, to investigate the therapeutic effect on chronic eczema in mice. RESULTS: The physical and chemical properties of radix scutellariae microemulsion gel were stable. Compared with microemulsion, the microemulsion gel had better transdermal performance. The cumulative transdermal amount of baicalein and wogonin, the main components of microemulsion gel, was 1.85 times and 2.77 times of that of microemulsion respectively. Moreover, the steady flow rate and permeability coefficient of microemulsion gel significantly increased, and the lag time significantly shortened. Pharmacodynamic study showed that compared with the model group, the radix scutellariae microemulsion gel could significantly reduce the ear swelling of mice (P<0.05), and the serum inflammatory factor TNF - α, IL-1β and IL-6 reduced content by over 37%. Compared with the radix scutellaria aqueous extract and aqueous extract gel, the treatment of chronic eczema was better. CONCLUSION: The preparation process of radix scutellaria microemulsion gel is feasible, with strong transdermal property, and a significant therapeutic effect on chronic eczema.
