Multiple myeloma (MM), as well as some treatments for MM, increase the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Prior literature suggests carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (KRd) may have a higher incidence of thromboembolic events compared with bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRd). We aimed to evaluate VTE risk with KRd induction compared to VRd at a large academic medical center in the United States.
We retrospectively reviewed patients with newly diagnosed MM presenting at a single institution. Patients were followed for objectively diagnosed VTE events for 6 months following the start of induction therapy.
A total of 209 patients were included, with 69 (33%) receiving KRd and 140 (67%) receiving VRd. Overall, 18 patients (9%) had a VTE event, with 5 (7%) in the KRd cohort and 13 (9%) in the VRd cohort (P = .80). Treatment with KRd was not associated with an increased risk of VTE compared to VRd (HR 0.74; 95% CI 0.26-2.08; P = .57).
In this cohort, KRd was not associated with an increase in VTE risk compared to VRd, contrary to prior literature.
多发性骨髓瘤(MM)以及MM的一些治疗方法会增加静脉血栓栓塞(VTE)的风险。先前的文献表明,与硼替佐米、来那度胺和地塞米松(VRd)相比,卡非佐米、来那度胺和地塞米松(KRd)可能有更高的血栓栓塞事件发生率。我们旨在在美国一家大型学术医疗中心评估与VRd相比,KRd诱导治疗时的VTE风险。
我们回顾性分析了在单一机构就诊的新诊断MM患者。在诱导治疗开始后,对患者进行6个月的客观诊断VTE事件随访。
共纳入209例患者,其中69例(33%)接受KRd治疗,140例(67%)接受VRd治疗。总体而言,18例患者(9%)发生了VTE事件,KRd组有5例(7%),VRd组有13例(9%)(P = 0.80)。与VRd相比,KRd治疗与VTE风险增加无关(HR 0.74;95% CI 0.26 - 2.08;P = 0.57)。
在该队列中,与VRd相比,KRd与VTE风险增加无关,这与先前的文献报道相反。
