• Myelodysplastic syndrome
• Second malignancy within the past 5 years except:
  • Adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer

• Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) seropositivity, hepatitis C infection, or hepatitis B infection: subjects with past hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection or resolved HBV infection defined as having a negative HBsAg test and a positive antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (HBc) antibody test are eligible; subjects positive for hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is negative for HCV RNA.
• Any other clinically significant medical disease or social condition that, in the investigator's opinion, may interfere with protocol adherence or a subject's ability to give informed consent, be compliant with study procedures, or provide accurate information.

Laborértékek

• Plasma cell leukemia (> 2.0 × 109/L circulating plasma cells by standard differential)
• Contraindication to dexamethasone, thalidomide or lenalidomide or any of the required concomitant drugs, supportive treatments or antiviral drugs, also including contraindication or hypersensitivity to any other components of these drugs (eg. hereditary galactose intolerance, complete lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorbtion in case of excipient lactose)

Egyéb

• ECOG ≥2
• Frail patients
• Waldenström macroglobulinemia
• Smoldering myeloma and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS)
• Known cirrhosis
• Female subjects who are pregnant or lactating

• Able to provide written informed consent in accordance with federal, local, and institutional guidelines
• newly diagnosed, symptomatic multiple myeloma
• Transplant-ineligibility: age > 65 years or patients not eligible due to comorbidities determined by investigator or patients not willing to undergo autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT) on personal preference
• Measurable disease, as defined by one or more of the following (assessed within 21 days prior to randomization):
  • Serum M-protein ≥ 0.5 g/dL, or
  • Urine M-protein ≥ 200 mg/24 hours, or
  • In subjects without detectable serum or urine M-protein, serum-free light chain (SFLC) > 100 mg/L (involved light chain) and an abnormal κ/λ ratio
• No prior treatment for multiple myeloma
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) of 0-1
• Patients at cardiac risk (NYHA >II or pre-existing coronary heart disease or any other relevant cardiac complication) should be scheduled for a baseline echocardiography (ECHO) and can only be included if the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is ≥40%); independent of cardiac risk ECG has to be done for inclusion of Asian patients and patients > 75 years of age
• Adequate organ and bone marrow function within the 21 days prior to randomization defined by:
  • Bilirubin < 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) < 3 times the ULN
  • growth factor support for max 3 days allowed to achieve an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1000/mm3 (screening ANC should be of required)
  • Hemoglobin ≥ 7.0 g/dL; use of erythropoietic stimulating factors and red blood cell (RBC) transfusion per institutional guidelines is allowed, however the most recent RBC transfusion may not have been done within 7 days prior to obtaining screening hemoglobin.
  • Platelet count ≥ 30,000/mm3
• Calculated or measured creatinine clearance (CrCl) of ≥ 30 mL/min. Calculation should be based on the Cockcroft and Gault formula: [(140 - Age) ∙ Mass (kg) / (72 ∙ Creatinine mg/dL)]; multiply result by 0.85 if female
• Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) must have a confirmed negative serum pregnancy test within the 21 days prior to randomization (performed at a central laboratory).
• Females of childbearing potential and male subjects who are sexually active with FCBP must agree to use effective concomitant method(s) of contraception during the study and for 30 days (women) and 90 days (men) following the last study drug treatment administration.
