ABSTRACT
In elderly patients aged≥80 with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma(NDMM), the optimal initial doses of bortezomib (Bor)and lenalidomide(Len)remain unclear. We performed a retrospective analysis that included 20 patients with NDMM aged≥80 years who underwent treatment with Bor or Len at our hospital from July 2010 to December 2019. Among the patients treated with Bor, the median time to next treatment(TTNT)was 4.2 months, and the median dose was 1.0 mg/m2 per injection. While patients with International Staging System(ISS)â
¢ or an estimated glomerular filtration rate of < 40 mL/ min/1.73 m2 required dose reductions, dose intensity did not significantly affect TTNT. Among the patients treated with Len, the median TTNT was 14.6 months, and the median dose of Len was 10.0 mg/day. All patients who started with6le;10 mg Len continued the initial dose; the others required a dose reduction. Treatment was discontinued in 2 patients because of disease progression and in other 15 patients because of adverse events(AEs). In conclusion, initial doses of Bor at 1.0 mg/ m2 per injection and Len at 10 mg per day may provide potent disease control and permit continuing treatment with few AEs in elderly patients with MM.
