The frequency of Tregs modulates the survival of MM patients. Kaplan–Meier curves displays the OS of groups of MM patients divided according the frequency of Treg. Patients with the percentages of CD4+CD25highFOXP3+ Tregs below median value were classified to Treg low group whereas those of frequencies equal above median value to Treg high group. (A) In cumulative analysis, MM patients of Treg high group lived significantly lower as compared with those with lower Treg frequencies. In sub-analysis, the difference in survival was observed only in patients who were treated with MPT (B) while in patients treated with CTD followed by ASCT there was no difference in OS in groups of patients characterised by high or low Treg percentages (C).
