Introduction: Real-world data reflects treatments and outcomes in clinical practice in contrast with controlled clinical trials. This study evaluates real-life multiple myeloma (MM) patients receiving proteasome inhibitor (PI)-based treatments in the second or third therapy line in 2017 in Germany.
Methods: This is a retrospective chart review on adult relapsed/refractory MM patients treated with ≥1 dose of a PI-based regimen in either the second or the third line of therapy.
Background: Ixazomib-revlimid-dexamethason showed significant activity in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Here, we evaluate ixazomib in combination with thalidomide and dexamethasone for induction treatment followed by ixazomib maintenance therapy in RRMM patients.
Methods: Ninety patients have been included.
A nationwide, multi-institutional survey was performed in 2011 and 2015 to analyze routine practice for myeloma patients outside clinical trials in Germany. We contacted university hospitals, community hospitals, and office-based hematologists in order to enter clinical data from newly diagnosed and relapsed patients into an online platform. Complete datasets were available for 478 (2011) and 515 (2015) patients.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of peripheral blood stem cell mobilization and autologous SCT was performed in 35 patients with MM who had received at least one cycle of a BPV-induction therapy consisting of bendamustine 60 mg/m(2) on days 1 and 2, bortezomib 1.3 mg/m(2) on days 1, 4, 8 and 11 and prednisone 100 mg on days 1, 2, 4, 8 and 11 between October 2008 and May 2014.
