Efficacy of low-dose bortezomib combined with chemotherapy in 4 patients with multiple myeloma

AIM To investigate the efficacy and toxicity of bortezomib in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory and newly diagnosed multiple myeloma （MM）. METHODS Four MM patients received the treatment of low-dose bortezomib（ 1.0 mg·m^-2 ） in combination with cyclophosphamide, dexamethasone and thalidomide in a 21-day cycle. All patients underwent 2 - 4 cycles of the treatment. Response to bortezomibcontaining regimen was evaluated according to the criteria of the European Cooperative Group for Bone Marrow Transplantation（EBMT）. Adverse drug reactions were graded according to the National Cancer Institute common toxicity criteria. RESULTS In 4 MM patients, one patient achieved near complete remission while partial remission was observed in the other 3 patients. Main adverse drug reactions were found including leucocytopenia, thrombocytopenia and pneumonia and so on. CONCLUSION The combination of low-dose bortezomib and chemotherapy can be safely and effectively used for the MM patients.
