Abstract

<p>In a Japanese phase II study (MM-025), the efficacy and safety of lenalidomide plus low-dose dexamethasone (Rd) were confirmed at a median follow-up of 14.2 months in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who were ineligible for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In the present report, we analyzed the follow-up data from the abovementioned study. Treatment was stopped for all 26 patients after a median follow-up of 31.3 months, and the median treatment duration was approximately 25 months. The overall response rate was 87.5%, and the complete response rate was 20.8%. The median duration of response and progression-free survival were 30.7 and 31.6 months, respectively. The median overall survival has not yet been reached. At least one grade 3/4 adverse event was experienced by 23 patients (88.5%), and 18 patients (69.2%) experienced serious adverse events. There were no treatment-related deaths. Therefore, the efficacy and safety of Rd were confirmed in transplant-ineligible Japanese patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma at the present follow-up period.</p>
