Background: Patients with Multiple Myeloma (MM) report some of the poorest Health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Few studies show how ASCT influences global health outcomes as measured by a Geriatric Assessment (GA). We performed a prospective GA evaluating the dynamic changes in health pre- and post-ASCT. Methods: 100 pts with plasma cell dyscrasia (median (m) = 60 yrs, range (r) = 36-75 yrs) underwent GA pre-ASCT, 90 days and 1-yr post-ASCT. GA included nutritional survey, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI), Medical Outcomes Study-Social Support Survey (MOS-SSS), Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), handgrip strength, self-reported Human Activity Profile (HAP) Maximum Activity Score (MAS) and Adjusted Activity Score (AAS). Data were analyzed using paired t-test (p < 0.05). Results: Pts reported moderate fatigue pre-ASCT (m = 4.6, r: 0-9.8) which normalized at 1-yr (m = 2.5, r: 0-7.3; p = 0.008). Self-reported pre-ASCT physical function (MAS) (m = 73, r = 20-94) improved at 1-yr (m = 75.5, r = 52-94; p = 0.014); AAS (m = 64, r = 18-94) also improved at 1-yr (m = 70.5, r = 38-91; p = 0.025). In contrast, MD-reported KPS decreased. Screens for deficits in anxiety, depression, social support, objective physical function, handgrip strength and wt loss did not change significantly at 1-yr. Conclusions: Our data indicate that ASCT significantly improves patient-reported fatigue and physical function, unlike MD-reported KPS.
