dc.description.abstract |
Long-awaited results from the the Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) trial comparing bortezomib–lenalidomide-dexamethasone (VRd) versus lenalidomide-dexamethasone (Rd) as induction treatment for previously untreated multiple myeloma (MM) patients were recently presented (S0777).1 Results justified the early adoption of VRd in the frontline setting over 5 years ago by the NCCN based on Level 2A evidence according to their guidelines.2 The randomized study E1A05 also sought to evaluate VRd superiority over a doublet (Vd), but in the consolidation setting. The trial was closed to enrollment prematurely due to slow accrual. Results reported here include 48 enrolled patients. |
