Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective is to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) of bortezomib-melphalan-prednisone (VMP) regimen vs lenalidomide-dexamethasone (Rd) treatment in real life, in unselected patient population.;Secondary Objective: ¿To compare the overall response rate (ORR) between the VMP and Rd arms ¿To compare the duration of response (DOR) between the VMP and Rd arms ¿To compare the overall survival (OS) between the VMP and Rd arms ¿To compare the progression-free survival 2 (PFS2) between the VMP and Rd arms ¿To compare the time to next therapy (TNT) between the VMP and Rd arms ¿To compare the time to progression (TTP) between the VMP and Rd arms ¿To compare safety in terms of incidence of hematologic and non-hematologic adverse events between the VMP and Rd arms ¿To compare the rate of treatment discontinuation or death for toxicity between VMP and Rd arms ¿To validate frailty score in a real life population, using geriatric assessment and considering patients¿ non-Myeloma polydrug therapies ¿To compare Quality of Life (QoL) between VMP and Rd arms ¿To compare direct health related costs and indirect costs between VMP and Rd arms ¿To evaluate the risk of infectious complications between VMP and Rd arms;Primary end point(s): Progression-free survival (PFS) of bortezomib-melphalan-prednisone (VMP) regimen vs lenalidomide-dexamethasone (Rd) treatment in real life, in unselected patient population.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 3 years | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): To determine the overall response rate (ORR) within the VMP and Rd arms.; To determine the duration of response (DOR) within the VMP and Rd arms; To determine the overall survival (OS) within the VMP and Rd arms; To determine the progression-free survival 2 (PFS2) within the VMP and Rd arms; To determine the time to next therapy (TNT) within the VMP and Rd arms; To determine the time to progression (TTP) within the VMP and Rd arms; To evaluate safety in terms of incidence of hematologic and non-hematologic adverse events within the VMP and Rd arms; To assess the rate of treatment discontinuation or death for toxicity within the VMP and Rd arms; To assess the Quality of Life (QoL) of enrolled patients; To compare health related costs; Validation of frailty score will be made by estimating efficacy and safety endpoints in patients stratified according to Myeloma Frailty Scor and by considering patients¿ non-Myeloma polydrug therapies; Infectious risk complications will be evaluated in terms of incidence, severity, type of infection, need for hospitalization, deferral or suspension of study treatment with possible impact on PFS;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 5 years; 5 years; 5 years; 5 years; 5 years; 5 years; 5 years; 5 years; 5 years; 5 years; 5 years; 5 years | — |
