BACKGROUND:Induction therapy for multiple myeloma (MM) and remission status before high-dose treatment (HDT) have been shown to be prognostic factors for survival outcome, although the optimal induction therapy is yet to be defined. METHODS:We conducted a retrospective analysis of the impact of induction therapy on survival outcome before and after HDT in MM patients. The study included 236 consecutive patients who underwent HDT. RESULTS:One hundred and forty-two patients (62%) were treated with vincristine, doxorubicin and dexamethasone (VAD) or cyclophosphamide and betamethasone (CyBet) and 94 (38%) were treated with bortezomib, cyclophosphamide and betamethasone (VCB) as induction. Time to first and time to best response was faster in the VCB group than in the VAD/CyBet group, with 42 versus 75 (p < 0.001) and 54 versus 88 days (p < 0.001), respectively. After induction therapy, 49% of the patients in the VCB group and 38% in the VAD/CyBet group achieved a very good partial response or better. Multivariate analysis revealed younger age, lower International Staging System stage and induction treatment with VCB as variables associated with favourable time to progression. CONCLUSIONS:Outcome measured as response and time to progression before and after HDT in MM differs depending on type of induction treatment and suggests that VCB is a highly effective induction regimen that confers a post-HDT advantage.

摘要背景:对多发性骨髓瘤(MM)的诱导治疗和大剂量治疗(HDT)之前的缓解状态已被证明是生存结果的预后因素,尽管最佳诱导治疗尚待确定。
方法:我们对诱导疗法对MM患者HDT前后生存结果的影响进行了回顾性分析。该研究包括236名接受HDT治疗的连续患者。
结果:142例患者(62%)接受了长春新碱,阿霉素和地塞米松(VAD)或环磷酰胺和倍他米松(CyBet)的治疗,而94例(38%)接受了硼替佐米,环磷酰胺和倍他米松(VCB)的治疗。 VCB组的首次响应时间和最佳响应时间比VAD / CyBet组更快,分别为42天与75天(p <0.001)和54天与88天(p <0.001)。诱导治疗后,VCB组中49%的患者和VAD / CyBet组中38%的患者获得了很好的局部缓解或更好的缓解。多变量分析显示年龄较小,国际分期系统阶段较低和以VCB作为与进展良好时间相关的变量进行诱导治疗。
结论:根据诱导治疗的类型不同,MM发生HDT前后反应和进展时间的结果也有所不同,这表明VCB是一种高度有效的诱导方案,具有HDT后的优势。
