Objective:   This study aimed to investigate the correlation of long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 with clinical features and prognosis in patients with multiple myeloma.Methods:   The bone marrow samples were collected from 128 patients with de novo symptomatic multiple myeloma (before initial treatment) and 30 healthy donors (on the enrollment). Long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 expression in bone marrow-derived plasma cells was detected by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. In patients with multiple myeloma, their demographics and clinical features before treatment were collected; induction treatment response (complete response and overall response rate) and survival profiles (progression-free survival and overall survival) were assessed.Results:   Expression of long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 was increased in patients with multiple myeloma compared to healthy donors. Receiver-operating characteristic curve showed that long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 distinguished patients with multiple myeloma from healthy donors with an area under the curve of 0.884 (95% confidence interval: 0.829-0.940). In patients with multiple myeloma, high expression of long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 correlated with elevated β-2 microglobulin, increased International Staging System stage, and raised Del (17p), but it did not correlate with other biochemical indexes or chromosomal abnormalities. Furthermore, long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 high expression patients presented with decreased complete response and overall response rate compared to long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 low expression patients, and high expression of long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 predicted unfavorable progression-free survival as well overall survival in patients with multiple myeloma.Conclusion:   Long noncoding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 might be a potential biomarker for the supervision of disease progression and prognosis in patients with multiple myeloma.
