Date Manual Section Add/Remove/Modify Description
6/27/16 Multiple Myeloma Response Criteria Modify Changed text in information box regarding Urine Studies:
In order to report a Stringent Complete Remission (sCR) or Complete Remission (CR), urine studies MUST be performed and agree with the international myeloma working group (IMWG) criteria provided above. As long as the negative serum electrophoresis and immunofixation studies have been confirmed, only one set of negative urine studies needs to be documented to report sCR or CR. Urine electrophoresis and immunofixation studies may not be performed in all cases. The disease response options below (Near Complete Remission, Very Good Partial Response, and Partial Response) may still be reported even if urine studies were never obtained or were only obtained at diagnosis. If urine studies were performed following the most recent line of therapy, the results must agree with the international working group IMWG criteria for the disease status being reported. In any case, serum studies MUST be performed and agree with the international working group criteria for the disease status being reported (excluding non-secretory myeloma).
6/24/16 Multiple Myeloma Response Criteria Add Added information box:
Urine Studies
In order to report a Stringent Complete Remission or Complete Remission, urine studies MUST be performed and agree with the international working group criteria provided above. Urine electrophoresis and immunofixation studies may not be performed in all cases. The disease response options below (Near Complete Remission, Very Good Partial Response, and Partial Response) may still be reported even if urine studies were never obtained or were only obtained at diagnosis. If urine studies were performed following the most recent line of therapy, the results must agree with the international working group criteria for the disease status being reported. In any case, serum studies MUST be performed and agree with the international working group criteria for the disease status being reported.
6/24/16 Multiple Myeloma Response Criteria Add Added link to Appendix W below disease status criteria.
6/24/16 MDS/MPN Response Criteria Add Added information box to MDS Disease Status Criteria, Hematologic Improvement Section:
Hypomethylating agents (e.g. Vidaza) should not be considered cytotoxic therapy; therefore, Hematologic Improvement may still be reported if the recipient meets the criteria below while continuing to receive hypomethylating agents.
6/24/16 MDS/MPN Response Criteria Modify Added language to note beneath Progression from Hematologic Improvement for MDS and MPN Response Criteria:
If the above criteria for progression have been met, but a hematologic improvement was not previously achieved, report “No Response (NR) / Stable Disease (SD)”.
6/24/16 MDS/MPN Response Criteria Add Added language to MPN Disease Status Criteria, Hematologic Improvement:
Requires one measurement of the following maintained for at least eight weeks without ongoing cytotoxic therapy:
6/24/16 2014: MDS/MPN Pre-HCT Add Added information box to Q157:
“Never Treated” is not an option choice on revision three of the Myelodysplasia / Myeloproliferative Disorders Pre-HSCT Data (MDS) Form.

6/24/16 2400: Pre-TED Add Added information box to Q568:
“Never Treated” is not an option choice on revision four of the Pre-TED Form. When completing revision four of this form, centers should report “No Response (NR) / Stable Disease (SD)” for recipients who have only received supportive care prior to transplant.

April 2016

Date Manual Section Add/Remove/Modify Description
4/6/16 2814: Indication for CRID Assignment Add Added the following warning box to the 2814 topic:
Reporting a subsequent transplant using the indication form is not allowed. Report the subsequent transplant on the latest follow up form for the most recent transplant.
4/6/16 2800: Log of Appended Documents Add Added the following information box: New FormsNet3 feature:
The ‘Attachment’ feature of FormsNet3 allows users to attach documents directly to a form. Direct attachment to the form eliminates the need to fax/scan documents separately with a 2800 form. Training on this feature is available here: https://www.cibmtr.org/DataManagement/TrainingReference/FormsNet/Documents/FN3%20Training%20Guide%20AE.pdf
4/6/16 2400: Pre-TED Modify Updated donor section reflect reporting of different products from same donor in questions 46-50:
Previous CIBMTR forms required you to enter two instances of the donor section when a single donor donated multiple products. This is no longer required. Report all products collected from a single donor in the same instance of the donor section.
If the recipient receives a cord blood unit and another product from the same related donor, complete two instances of the Donor Information section (questions 31-62) on the Pre-TED Form 2400.
For example, if a related donor gave a cord blood unit and bone marrow, you would report the cord blood unit information in one instance with the donor type listed as ‘Related cord blood unit’. Create another instance with the donor type reported as ‘Related donor’ to report the bone marrow information. This allows CIBMTR to capture all the necessary donor information needed.
For these cases, complete a Form 2004 for each product. When the donor type is an HLA matched or mismatched relative, only one Form 2005 is required.
4/6/16 2450: Post-TED Modify Changed the wording in questions 66-73 to reflect the possibility of multiple causes of death (i.e., select all that apply), rather than a single primary cause of death.
