Mortality trends in multiple myeloma after the introduction of novel therapies in the United States

Moritz Binder et al.

Summary: Recent advancements in disease biology, drug development, and supportive care have led to improved outcomes in multiple myeloma patients. However, disparities exist in mortality trends among patient populations, with older patients and those with unfavorable disease characteristics experiencing higher excess mortality. Efforts should be made to develop safe and effective therapies for these vulnerable patients and to ensure timely access to specialized care in the community.

Comparison of venous thromboembolism incidence in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients receiving bortezomib, lenalidomide, dexamethasone (RVD) or carfilzomib, lenalidomide, dexamethasone (KRD) with aspirin or rivaroxaban thromboprophylaxis

Katrina Piedra et al.

Summary: The incidence of venous thromboembolism varies across different regimens in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients, with higher rates seen in those treated with KRD induction. The use of low-dose rivaroxaban thromboprophylaxis can mitigate this risk without an observable increase in bleeding rates.

Multiple myeloma: 2022 update on diagnosis, risk stratification, and management

S. Vincent Rajkumar

Summary: Multiple myeloma is a hematologic malignancy that accounts for approximately 10% of cases. The diagnosis is based on the presence of clonal bone marrow plasma cells and associated symptoms. High-risk patients require stem cell transplantation and may benefit from different treatment regimens.

Thromboembolic events and thromboprophylaxis associated with immunomodulators in multiple myeloma patients: a real-life study

V Leclerc et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of international guidelines regarding thromboprophylaxis strategy in myeloma patients treated with immunomodulatory drugs. The results showed that thromboprophylaxis was commonly performed in these patients, but the choice of anticoagulant or anti-platelet agent remained debatable, with variable adherence to existing guidelines.

Venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in patients with multiple myeloma: where are we and where are we going?

Gianfranco Lapietra et al.

Summary: Venous thromboembolism is a common complication in patients with hematologic malignancies, particularly multiple myeloma patients. Current guidelines for prevention are lacking and there is a debate on whether to stratify thrombotic risk or provide prophylactic treatment regardless of risk factors. New studies on direct oral anticoagulants in myeloma patients are promising but larger trials are needed for confirmation. An international consensus on best prophylaxis is still missing, leaving thrombosis in multiple myeloma as an ongoing issue.

Thromboembolism Incidence and Risk Factors in Multiple Myeloma After First Exposure to Immunomodulatory Drug-Based Regimens

Jai N. Patel et al.

Summary: Male gender and presence of any comorbidity were associated with time to thromboembolism in multiple myeloma patients. Despite a higher proportion of patients with comorbidities in the anticoagulant group, there were no differences in thromboembolism incidence among different thromboprophylaxis types.

Validation of the IMPEDE VTE score for prediction of venous thromboembolism in multiple myeloma: a retrospective cohort study

Fahrettin Covut et al.

Summary: The IMPEDE VTE score is a novel risk prediction tool for venous thromboembolism in multiple myeloma patients, with validated predictive ability for VTE occurrence within 6 months. The study found that patients in the low risk group had lower incidence of VTE, while those in the intermediate and high risk groups had higher rates, and a higher ECOG performance status was associated with VTE occurrence. Other MM characteristics such as stage, immunoglobulin subtype, and cytogenetics were not predictors of VTE.
