Carfilzomib Has Potential to Offer Substantial Clinical Benefit to Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma; Subset Analysis Finds No Impact of Baseline Peripheral Neuropathy on Efficacy
Treatment with single-agent carfilzomib achieved durable responses in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma whose disease had relapsed after they received all available therapies (including bortezomib and immunomodulatory agents), suggesting that this agent has the potential to offer substantial clinical benefit. The data was presented at the 52nd American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and Exposition.
