Abstract
Bortezomib efficacy in I, II and subsequent therapy lines was studied at 51 multiple myeloma (MM) patients in Novosibirsk Hematological Center. The median of age was 66 years (39—87); patients have received from 4 to 12 therapy courses, totally — 363 courses. Total efficacy of the I line therapy was 80%. Complete remission has been achieved in 60% of patients. Efficacy of Bortezomib monotherapy and in combination with glucocorticoids in case of progression and refractory MM was 75,7%. Bortezomib was effective even at repeated administration to patients had receied it or other components of combined regimes earlier (total response — 46,2%). Bortezomib side effects were predicted and managed; most significant of them are gastrointestinal, hematologic, asthenia and peripheral neuropathia. Thus, bortezomib is highly effective drug, important in MM therapy as I and subsequent therapy line and result in significantly increase of overall survival.
