Efficacy Study Comparing Velcade Dexamethasone Thalidomide Versus Velcade Cyclophosphamide Dexamethasone as Induction Treatment in the Initial Management of Multiple Myeloma (IFM2013-04)

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Multiple Myeloma
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01971658
Lead Sponsor
Nantes University Hospital
Brief Summary

This is a phase III, multicenter, prospective with a clinical benefit, open-label and randomized study to compare two different treatments : Velcade (Bortezomib) Thalidomide Dexamethasone (VTD) versus Velcade (Bortezomib) Cyclophosphamide Dexamethasone (VCD) as an Induction Treatment prior to Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in patients with Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma.

Eligible patients will be randomized into 2 treatment arms. Each patient will receive 4 consecutive 21 day cycles of an induction treatment with either VTD or VCD.

Detailed Description

The patient population will consist of adult men and women who have a confirmed diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma and who meet eligibility criteria. They will be recruited from among the patients consulting in an investigating centre's haematology service for newly diagnosed, symptomatic, untreated multiple myeloma.

in each treatment arm there will be :

1. Induction therapy : 4 cycles of VTD (21 days)or VCD

2. Systematic stem cell harvest after cycle 3
