Patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) with reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) for multiple myeloma (MM) experience a high frequency of extra-medullary relapses (EMR) (20–37%). 1–3 This study aims at determining factors predictive for EMR after allo-SCT, prognosis of EMR and efficacy of salvage therapies. We retrospectively analyzed a continuous cohort of 79 patients with MM who received allo-SCT in one single center (Montpellier University Hospital, France) between 2000 and 2010.
