Overview

Multiple myeloma was first discovered by Dr. Samuel Solly, a surgeon working in St.Thomas hospital in London in 1844.[1]The Bence Jones protein was first discovered by Dr. Henry Bence Jones and found to be associated with multiple myeloma in 1850; And  the  term  “Bence  Jones  protein”  was  first  used  by Fleischer in 1880. PMID:29194778

Historical Perspective

  • In 1844, Dr. Samuel Solly reported the first case of multiple myeloma. He was a a surgeon working in St. Thomas Hospital at London.[2][3] Dr. Solly treated patients with rhubard and orange peel.
  • In 1845, abnormal urinary proteins were found to be associated with multiple myeloma. These were eventually coined as Bence Jones proteins. Dr. T. Watson treated patients with steel and quinine.
  • In 1856, Dr. Heller described precipitation of urinary protein above a temperature of 50 degrees Celcius. This was eventually found to be the Bence Jones protein.
  • In 1850, Dr. Henry Bence Jones first described the Bence Jones protein and found it to be associated with multiple myeloma.[4]
  • In 1895, plasma cells were first described. It was later found that plasma cell proliferation was the cellular basis for multiple myeloma.[3]
  • In 1928, Copeland and Geschickter reported the first large case series of multiple myeloma patients. They described 412 patients from 1848 to 1928 and noted that these patients had pathologic fractures, Bence Jones protein in the urine, renal dysfunction, and anemia.[3][3]
  • In 1939, the monoclonal protein spike (M-spike) was described on protein electrophoresis. The M-spike was noted to be the gamma-globulin region.[3]
  • In 1947, Dr. N. Alwall treated multiple myeloma patients with urethane.
  • In 1956, light chains were recognized to be a component of multiple myeloma.[3]
  • In the 1960s, the chemotherapy agent melphalan was shown to improve overall survival in multiple myeloma.[5]
  • In 1958, Dr. N. Blokhin first used melphalan as a chemotherapy agent to treat multiple myeloma.[3]
  • In 1961, the use of thalidomide was prohibited since it was found to be associated with birth defects.[5]
  • In 1962, Gally and Edelman recognized that Bence Jones urinary protein and the serum immunoglobulin light chain had the same amino acid composition. The In the same year, R.E. Maas demonstrated that corticosteroids could be used to treat multiple myeloma.[3]
  • In 1975, the Durie-Salmon staging system was developed.[3]
  • In 1983, T.J. McElwain and R.L. Powles showed that autologous stem cell transplant could be used to treat multiple myeloma.[3]
  • In the 1990s, it was shown that high-dose therapy with autologous stem cell rescue led to improved patient outcomes.[5]
  • In 1999, Singhal and colleagues showed that thalidomide had a 32% response rate in a phase II clinical trial of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
  • In 2003, the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of multiple myeloma.
  • In 2005, the International Staging System (ISS) was developed and cytogenetic classification was described.
  • In 2014, the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) revised the diagnostic criteria for active multiple myeloma to include bone marrow [[plasma cell burden of 60% or greater, serum free light chain ratio of involved-to-uninvolved light chain of 100 or greater, and greater than 1 bony lesion on MRI measuring at least 5mm. The advent of the 2014 diagnostic criteria increased the proportion of patients diagnosed with active multiple myeloma.
