Several placebo-controlled, randomized phase III studies showed that subsets of myeloma patients receiving bisphosphonates had a survival advantage MRC-IX Myeloma study ZA reduced SRE risk by 26% vs. clodronate, regardless of the anti-myeloma treatment Benefit in both patients with and without bone disease at diagnosis Nordic MM group study- improved physical function, less ONJ Pamidronate 30mg vs 90mg Denosumab vs Zoledronic Acid Morgan GJ, Child JA, Gregory WM, et al; National Cancer Research Institute Haematological Oncology Clinical Studies Group.

19 MRC Myeloma IX Clinical Trial: ZOL vs CLO N = 1,960 Patients with newly diagnosed MM (stage I, II, III) R A N D O M I Z A T I O N Zoledronic acid (4 mg a IV q 3-4 wk) + intensive or non-intensive chemotherapy (n = 981) Treatment continued at least until disease progression Clodronate (1,600 mg/d PO) + intensive or non-intensive chemotherapy (n = 979) Patients were evaluated while on the clinical trial for Efficacy: how well the treatment works Safety: side effects that might be caused by the therapy The two therapies were compared to each other. Which patients did better? Primary Endpoints: PFS OS ORR Secondary Endpoints: Time to first SRE SRE incidence Safety CLO = clodronate; IV = intravenous; MM = multiple myeloma; ORR = overall response rate; OS = overall survival; PFS = progression-free survival; PO = oral; SRE = skeletal-related event; ZOL = zoledronic acid. a Dose-adjusted for patients with impaired renal function, per the prescribing information.

20 MRC Myeloma IX Results: ZOL Was Better than CLO Cumulative incidence function, SREs/patient Patients With Bone Lesions at Start of Study Patients, n ZOL CLO Time from randomization, months CLO ZOL Lower = Better Cumulative incidence function, SREs/patient Patients, n ZOL CLO Patients Without Bone Lesions at Start of Study Time from randomization, months So it is better to treat all patients with ZOL (zoledronic acid) not CLO (clodronate) whether or not they have bone lesions at the start CLO ZOL Lower = Better CLO = clodronate; SRE = skeletal-related event; ZOL = zoledronic acid. a SREs were defined as vertebral fractures, other fractures, spinal cord compression, and the requirement for radiation or surgery to bone lesions or the appearance of new osteolytic bone lesions.

21 Urine NTX Biomarker

22 Z-MARK Clinical Trial: Personalizing ZOL Dosing Based on Urine NTX Biomarker Personalized ZOL Dosing for 2 Years Patients were evaluated for 121 MM patients who received IV bisphosphonate therapy 52 to 104 wk before first ZOL dose on study (N=121) Urine NTX level Tested High (NTX 50) Low (NTX < 50) Zoledronic acid (4 mg a IV) Every 4 Weeks Low (untx < 50) Zoledronic acid (4 mg a IV) Every 12 Weeks Skeletal- related event (SRE) includes fracture, spinal cord compression, etc. Progressive disease (PD) myeloma progressing High urine ntx untx 50 ZOL dosing schedule switched to every 4 weeks if SRE, PD, or high ntx IV = intravenous; MM = multiple myeloma; SRE = skeletal-related event; untx = urinary N-telopeptide; wk = weeks; ZOL = zoledronic acid. Raje, et al. Clin Can Res

23 Z-MARK Clinical Trial Results: Personalized Dosing of ZOL Works Well At Start of Study 121 patients: patients had low NTX every 12 weeks - 4 had high NTX so every 4 weeks when NTX low, all switched to every 12 weeks During the 2 years, 38 patients changed to every 4 weeks - 14 patients had high NTX; 4 patients had SRE; 20 patients had disease progression End of year 1: 7 patients with every 12 weeks had an SRE End of year 2: 5 patients with every 12 weeks had an SRE ONJ: 4 patients Personalized ZOL dosing at every 12 weeks based on NTX biomarker levels had low rate of SRE and ONJ Raje et al, Clin Can Res 2015

NO Follow up at 2 years for survival

26 Denosumab and ZOL Results: Both Work Equally Well Time to First SRE While On the Clinical Trial Overall Survival HR (95% CI) = 0.98 (0.85, 1.14); P=0.01 (Noninferiority) Higher = Better HR (95% CI) = 0.90 (0.70, 1.16); P=0.41 Denosumab 121 Deaths (14.1%) Zoledronic Acid 129 Deaths (15.0%) Higher = Better Since the blue Denosumab and red-dashed ZOL lines overlap, both Denosumab and ZOL were equally good by measures of preventing bone events (like fracture) and how long patients lived

27 Denosumab and ZOL Results: Denosumab Has Slightly Better Progression-Free Survival Progression Free Survival HR (95% CI) = 0.82 (0.68, 0.99); P=0.036 (Descriptive) Higher = Better Median Duration (95% CI), Months Denosumab (34.30, NE) Zoledronic Acid (30.19, NE) Blue Denosumab line higher than red dashed ZOL line indicating Denosumab patients lived longer without their disease getting worse

28 Supportive Care and Patient Education Dr. Beth Faiman

29 Bone Health Supportive Care **Bone-strengthening agents are recommended for all patients receiving anti-myeloma therapy - Updated 2018 guidelines suggest for up to 2 years (Duration is case dependent) Pamidronate, Zoledronic acid or Denosumab Regular dental health monitoring, good hygiene Osteonecrosis of the Jaw Dental procedures Kidney health monitoring Kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty for vertebral compression Other bone interventions include surgery or radiation Report new pain to your health care provider Kyphoplasty for Vertebral Compression 29 Anderson K, Ismaila N, Flynn PJ, et al.

Preferably weight bearing Maintain fitness individual to each level Walking 5-10 mins, twice a day to swimming and other activities can enhance fitness Calcium and vitamin D intake with monitoring is essential Various doses recommended. Absolutely necessary if on bisphosphonates or RANKL drugs cause low blood calcium levels Consult with healthcare team Routine disease, bone health monitoring Annual, biannual skeletal surveys or sooner if disease progression suspected Ask healthcare team if restrictions on exercise Ravenborg N, Udd K, Berenson A, Costa F, Berenson JR.
