Abstract:
Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of bortezomib once-weekly therapy for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM).Methods:The clinical data of 50 patients with newly diagnosed MM who received bortezomib combined with chemotherapy in Heze Municipal Hospital of Shandong Province from June 2016 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into once-weekly medication regimen (the observation group, 21 cases) and twice-weekly medication regimen (the control group, 29 cases). The efficacy and adverse reactions of both groups were compared.Results:The total effective rate of the former 2 treatment courses in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant [23.8% (5/21) vs. 55.2% (16/29), χ 2 = 4.918, P = 0.027]. After treatment of 4 and 6 courses, there were no statistically significant differences in the total effective rate between the observation group and the control group [66.7% (14/21) vs. 72.4% (21/29); 81.0% (17/21) vs. 86.2% (25/29), all P > 0.05]. The incidence of peripheral neuropathy in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant [14.3% (3/21) vs. 41.4% (12/29), χ 2 = 4.416, P = 0.036]. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of other adverse reactions of both groups (both P < 0.05). Conclusions:The therapeutic effect of once-weekly medication regimen is similar to that of twice-weekly medication regimen for the treatment of newly diagnosed MM. The incidence of peripheral neuropathy in the once-weekly therapy is low and the patients can have better tolerance.
