Time frame
Disease response was assessed every 28 days until end of treatment or the data cut-off date of 10 November 2014; median duration of treatment was 27 weeks in the bortezomib group and 40 weeks in the carfilzomib treatment group.

What was measured

Disease response was evaluated according to the IMWG-URC by the IRC. Overall response was defined as the percentage of participants with a best overall response of partial response (PR), very good PR (VGPR), complete response (CR) or stringent CR (sCR). sCR: As for CR, normal serum free light chain (SFLC) ratio and no clonal cells in bone marrow (BM). CR: No immunofixation on serum and urine, disappearance of any soft tissue plasmacytomas and \< 5% plasma cells in BM biopsy; VGPR: Serum and urine M-protein detectable by immunofixation but not electrophoresis or ≥ 90% reduction in serum M-protein with urine M-protein \<100 mg/24 hours. A ≥ 50% reduction in the size of soft tissue plasmacytomas if present at baseline. PR: ≥ 50% reduction of serum M-protein and reduction in urine M-protein by ≥ 90% or to \< 200 mg/24 hours. A ≥ 50% reduction in the size of soft tissue plasmacytomas if present at baseline.

Groups in this outcome

Bortezomib + DEX

Participants received bortezomib 1.3 mg/m² administered intravenously (IV) or subcutaneously (SC) on Days 1, 4, 8, and 11 of a 21-day cycle plus dexamethasone (DEX) 20 mg administered on Days 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, and 12 of each 21-day cycle.

Carfilzomib + DEX

Participants received 20 mg/m² carfilzomib administered by IV infusion on Days 1 and 2 of Cycle 1, followed by 56 mg/m² on Days 8, 9, 15, and 16 of Cycle 1 and for each 28-day cycle thereafter. Additionally, participants received 20 mg dexamethasone on Days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 16, 22, and 23 of each 28 day cycle.
