  • Cardiac Events During Treatment with Proteasome Inhibitor Therapy for Multiple Myeloma John H
    Chen et al. Cardio-Oncology (2017) 3:4 DOI 10.1186/s40959-017-0023-9 RESEARCH Open Access Cardiac events during treatment with proteasome inhibitor therapy for multiple myeloma John H. Chen1*, Daniel J. Lenihan2, Sharon E. Phillips3, Shelton L. Harrell1 and Robert F. Cornell1 Abstract Background: Proteasome inhibitors (PI) bortezomib and carfilzomib are cornerstone therapies for multiple myeloma. Higher incidence of cardiac adverse events (CAEs) has been reported in patients receiving carfilzomib. However, risk factors for cardiac toxicity remain unclear. Our objective was to evaluate the incidence of CAEs associated with PI and recognize risk factors for developing events. Methods: This was a descriptive analysis of 96 patients with multiple myeloma who received bortezomib (n = 44) or carfilzomib (n = 52). We compared the cumulative incidence of CAEs using a log rank test. Patient-related characteristics were assessed and multivariate analysis was used to identify risk factors for developing CAEs. Results: PI-related CAEs occurred in 21 (22%) patients. Bortezomib-associated CAEs occurred in 7 (16%) patients while carfilzomib-associated cardiac events occurred in 14 (27%) patients. The cumulative incidence of CAEs was not significantly different between agents. Events occurred after a median of 67.5 days on PI therapy. Heart failure was the most prevalent event type. More patients receiving carfilzomib were monitored by a cardiologist. By multivariate analysis, a history of prior cardiac events and longer duration of PI therapy were identified as independent risk factors for developing CAEs. Conclusions: AEs were common in patients receiving PIs. Choice of PI did not impact the cumulative incidence of CAEs.

  • Proteasome Inhibitors for the Treatment of Multiple Myeloma
    cancers Review Proteasome Inhibitors for the Treatment of Multiple Myeloma Shigeki Ito Hematology & Oncology, Department of Internal Medicine, Iwate Medical University School of Medicine, Yahaba-cho 028-3695, Japan; [email protected]; Tel.: +81-19-613-7111 Received: 27 December 2019; Accepted: 19 January 2020; Published: 22 January 2020 Abstract: Use of proteasome inhibitors (PIs) has been the therapeutic backbone of myeloma treatment over the past decade. Many PIs are being developed and evaluated in the preclinical and clinical setting. The first-in-class PI, bortezomib, was approved by the US food and drug administration in 2003. Carfilzomib is a next-generation PI, which selectively and irreversibly inhibits proteasome enzymatic activities in a dose-dependent manner. Ixazomib was the first oral PI to be developed and has a robust efficacy and favorable safety profile in patients with multiple myeloma. These PIs, together with other agents, including alkylators, immunomodulatory drugs, and monoclonal antibodies, have been incorporated into several regimens. This review summarizes the biological effects and the results of clinical trials investigating PI-based combination regimens and novel investigational inhibitors and discusses the future perspective in the treatment of multiple myeloma. Keywords: multiple myeloma; proteasome inhibitors; bortezomib; carfilzomib; ixazomib 1. Introduction Multiple myeloma (MM) remains an incurable disease. Over the last ten years, the availability of new drugs, such as the proteasome inhibitors (PIs), the immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), the monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs), and the histone deacetylase inhibitors, have greatly advanced the treatment and improved the survival of patients with MM [1–3]. Proteasome inhibition has emerged as a crucial therapeutic strategy in the treatment of MM.

  • Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia: Prognosis and Management
    OPEN Citation: Blood Cancer Journal (2015) 5, e394; doi:10.1038/bcj.2015.28 www.nature.com/bcj REVIEW Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia: prognosis and management This article has been corrected since Online Publication and an erratum has also been published A Oza1 and SV Rajkumar2 Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM) is a B-cell lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma characterized by monoclonal immunoglobulin M protein in the serum and infiltration of bone marrow with lymphoplasmacytic cells. Asymptomatic patients can be observed without therapy. First-line therapy should consist of the monoclonal anti-CD20 antibody, rituximab, given typically in combination with other agents. We prefer dexamethasone, rituximab, cyclophosphamide (DRC) as initial therapy for most patients with symptomatic WM. Other reasonable options are bortezomib, rituximab, dexamethasone (BoRD) or bendamustine plus rituximab (BR). All of these regimens are associated with excellent response and tolerability. Initial therapy is usually administered for 6 months, followed by observation. Response to therapy is assessed using the standard response criteria developed by the International Working Group on Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. Relapse is almost inevitable in WM but may occur years after initial therapy. In symptomatic patients relapsing more than 1–2 years after initial therapy, the original treatment can be repeated. For relapse occurring sooner, an alternative regimen is used. In select patients, high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation may be an option at relapse. Options for therapy of relapsed WM besides regimens used in the front-line setting include ibrutinib, purine nucleoside analogs (cladribine, fludarabine), carfilzomib and immunomodulatory agents (thalidomide, lenalidomide). Blood Cancer Journal (2015) 5, e394; doi:10.1038/bcj.2015.28; published online 27 March 2015 INTRODUCTION patient’s quality of life, and limit exposure to chemotherapy and 8 Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM) is defined as a B-cell its potential side effects.
