J Hematol Oncol. 2013;6:41). Pts in MM-021 received a median of 4 (range 1e15) prior antimyeloma treatments (Tx) with 90 (45%) pts treated with both THAL and BORT.

The aim of this subanalysis of the MM-024 EAP was to investigate the long-term safety of Rd in Chinese pts with RRMM previously treated with both THAL and BORT, or treated with neither THAL nor BORT. Patients and Methods:MM-024 pts received the same Rd regimen as those in the MM-021 study. Starting doses of Rd were the same as the last doses received in MM-021 unless dose adjustments were required prior to rollover, per protocol. Tx continued until disease progression, withdrawal due to toxicity, or lost to follow-up, and pts were followed for up to 5 years (yrs; including 1 yr spent in MM-021). The primary endpoint was safety. Results: Of the 80 pts enrolled in MM-024, 18 (23%) had received prior Tx with THAL, 16 (20%) prior Tx with BORT, 41 (51%) prior Tx with both THAL and BORT, and 5 (6%) prior Tx with neither THAL nor BORT (data cutoff November 5, 2014). Baseline characteristics were generally similar across prior Tx subgroups (Table); as expected, pts who had received prior Tx with THAL and BORT were more likely to have received multiple prior Tx. The incidences of Gr 3e4 neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia AEs were generally similar across subgroups (Table). Gr 3e4 pneumonia was reported in about 10% of pts with prior THAL, BORT, or both THAL and BORT. Rates of Gr 3e4 peripheral neuropathy and deep-vein thrombosis were low. No pts discontinued Rd due to AEs; however, 2 pts died due to Tx-related AEs: 1 had received prior THAL only (lung infection), and 1 had received prior THAL and BORT (cerebral infarction). The safety profile of Rd in pts with prior THAL and BORT was consistent with the overall safety results from the MM-024 and MM-021 trials. Conclusion: Results of this subgroup analysis suggest that Rd has an acceptable long-term safety profile in Chinese pts with RRRM, regardless of prior Tx with THAL and/or BORT.
