Advantages:

1) Earlier diagnosis 2) Improved monitoring (international response-criteria) 3) Associated with prognosis (international consensus) 4) High through-put Bradwell et al. 1999 Clin Chem ‘immunoassay for quantification of FLC in serum’ Durie et al. 2006 Leukemia ‘international uniform response criteria for MM’

Freelite assay: analytical issues

  • Linearity problems
  • Antigen excess
  • Imprecision
  • Non-accurate

Plasma cell Ab-production Interference of intact M-proteins Each monoclonal FLC is a unique analyte (hypervariable Fab fragment) Some FLC form dimers Some FLC polymerize

Hoedemakers et al. Clim Chem Lab Med 2011.

Red dotted lines illustrate that differences in FLC concentrations can be observed between the two commercial immunoassays (up to 10 times !)

Recently Siemens has introduced a second commercial immunoassay to measure FLC (N Latex assays)

First (personal and international) experiences in clinical labs with the N latex assays

Compared to Freelite assay:

  • Improved linearity but also STRONG non-linearity in some samples, especially when also

intact M-protein is present (Jacobs et al. Clin Chim Acta 2012)

  • Build in antigen excess protection

intact M-protein is present (Jacobs et al. Clin Chim Acta 2012)

  • Build in antigen excess protection
  • Higher batch-to-batch precision (Pretorius et al. Ann Clin Biochem 2012)
  • mAb impose risk of missing FLCclone (Hutchison et al. BMC Clin Pathol 2012)
  • Reference values are similar but not identical

Summary FLC assays

Is harmonization possible?

Strong concentration differences observed when compared to Freelite assay

a) Both assays report results in mg/L b) Which result is correct?! International standard is lacking… c) Reference values are similar but not identical d) The above provides a big problem

  • For translation of data from literature
  • For patients switching from hospital

Standardization is urgently needed (but will be difficult).

Can immunoglobulins and FLC be quantified using mass spectrometry?

MRM technique in a triple-quadrupole instrument with stable isotope

  • standards. Proven extremely powerful to accurately quantitate proteins.

Meng et al. J. of Proteomics 2011

Mass-select peptide Fragment peptide Detect fragment peptide

MRM = multiple reaction monitoring (= SRM = selected reaction monitoring)

  • 3. MM-pt. FLC Kappa
  • 4. MM-pt. FLC Lambda
  • 5. MM-pt. IgG-K (with few FLC K)
