35 Conclusions of IFM and GIMEMA Studies A better induction regimen pre-transplant improves the outcomes post-transplant. Earlier use of novel agents improves response rates, which translate to improving long-term outcomes as well

36 Questions??? Is risk stratification of myeloma necessary? What is the best induction regimen? Combination or Sequential? Is attaining CR important? Is HDT/ transplant still necessary? What is the best treatment at relapse?

37 Treatment Options for Relapsed Myeloma No definitive data on optimal sequence Factors to consider : Prior tx and response duration Toxicities from prior tx Organ function Patients preference All pts should be encouraged to paticipate in clin trials Always keep in mind future therapies

38 2009 NCCN Guidelines Repeat primary therapy (if relapse at > 6 mos.) Bortezomib (Category 1) Bortezomib/liposomal doxorubicin (1) Lenalidomide/dex (1) Bendamustine (2B) Bortezomib/dex Lenalidomide Hi dose cyclophosphamide, or Cy-VAD Thalidomide, or thalidomide/dex Dex, or DCEP, or DT-PACE 1 year

45 Bortezomib dose modification for the management of PN Severity of PN signs/symptoms Grade 1 (paresthesia and/or loss of reflexes without pain or loss of function) Grade 1 with pain or Grade 2 (interfering with function but not with ADL) Grade 2 with pain or Grade 3 (interfering with ADL) Grade 4 (permanent sensory loss interfering with function) Modification of dose and regimen No action Reduce bortezomib to 1.0 mg/m 2 Withhold bortezomib until toxicity resolves then reinitiate at 0.7 mg/m 2 and administer once per week Discontinue bortezomib ADL, activities of daily living

46 Myeloma Myths in Asia Incidence of DCT lower in Asians on IMIDs Asians are more vulnerable to bortezomib induced neuropathy? Why are they only producing 3.5 mgvials??

Hep B reactivation during immune reconstitution post-transplant Role of imids? Emerging incidence of mutant strains Mya et al ASH Abstract #3882

48 Conclusions Is risk stratification of myeloma necessary? Yes! What is the best induction regimen? Earlier use of novel agents improves RR and long-term outcomes Combination outperforms sequencing Is attaining CR important? Yes! Excellent predictors of long-term benefit for myeloma patients in the up-front setting Pushing for a CR pre-transplant appears to be improving the outcome after transplant Is HDT/ transplant still necessary? Yes
