What was measured

Overall response to study medication is defined as number of participants who acheived a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) by the local investigator according to the current European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) criteria. According to EBMT criteria, CR is defined as the absence of serum and urine monoclonal paraprotein + plus no increase in size or number of lytic bone lesions; and PR is defined as not all CR criteria + 50 percentage or more reduction in serum monoclonal paraprotein.

Analysis population: Intent-to-treat: Participants who were randomized to receive the treatment.

Groups in this outcome

Thalidomide + Dexamethasone

Participants received thalidomide every night (at bedtime) without food on Days 1 to 28 and dosing was gradually increased during Cycle 1 starting at 50 mg on Days 1 to 7, 100 mg on Days 8 to 14, 150 mg on 15 to 21, and 200 mg on Days 22 to 28. Thalidomide 200 mg per day was administered for subsequent cycles. Dexamethasone 40 mg was administered by mouth on Days 1 to 4, 9 to 12 and 17 to 20.

DOXIL + Thalidomide + Dexamethasone

DOXIL 40 mg/m2 was administered intravenously on Day 1 and thalidomide every night (at bedtime) without food on Days 1-28 and dosing was gradually increased during Cycle 1 starting at 50 mg on Days 1 to 7, 100 mg on Days 8 to 14, 150 mg on 15 to 21, and 200 mg on Days 22 to 28. Thalidomide 200 mg per day was administered for subsequent cycles. Dexamethasone 40 mg was administered by mouth on Days 1 to 4, 9 to 12 and 17 to 20.
