Criteria for safe SOT candidates with a prior history of Myeloma (top) or Amyloidosis (bottom).

Criteria for Safe Renal Transplantation in Myeloma
Stringent complete response:
 No monoclonal protein in serum or urine by immunofixation,
 Normal free light chain ratio
 Bone marrow plasma cells <1% by flow or immunohistochemistry
Performance status 0 or 1
FISH at diagnosis fail to demonstrate deletion (17p), t(4;14), t(14;16)
Hematologic remission > 6 months

Criteria for Organ Transplantation in Amyloidosis
Therapeutic response with dFLC of <4 mg/dL
Only one organ involved with amyloidosis
Does not fulfill criteria for symptomatic myeloma
Must be a candidate for stem cell transplantation following organ transplantation

dFLC: difference between involved minus uninvolved serum free light chains
