What was measured

The Overall response rate was defined as the percentage of participants who achieved a partial response (PR) or better, according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria, during the study or during follow up. IMWG criteria for PR: greater than or equal to (\>=) 50 percentage (%) reduction of serum M-protein and reduction in 24 hour urinary M-protein by \>=90% or to \<200 mg/24 hours, if the serum and urine M-protein are not measurable, a decrease of \>=50% in the difference between involved and uninvolved free light chain (FLC) levels is required in place of the M-protein criteria, If serum and urine M-protein are not measurable, and serum free light assay is also not measurable, \>=50% reduction in bone marrow plasma cells (PCs) is required in place of M-protein, provided baseline bone marrow plasma cell percentage was \>=30%, in addition to the above criteria, if present at baseline, a \>=50% reduction in the size of soft tissue plasmacytomas was also required.

Analysis population: ITT population included all participants randomized into the study; classified according to assigned treatment group, regardless of the actual treatment received.

Groups in this outcome

Velcade, Melphalan and Prednisone (VMP)

Participants received Velcade (bortezomib) 1.3 milligrams per square meter (mg/m\^2) as subcutaneous (SC) injection, twice weekly at Weeks 1, 2, 4 and 5 in Cycle 1 followed by once weekly at Weeks 1, 2, 4 and 5 in Cycles 2 to 9, melphalan 9 mg/m\^2 orally once daily on Days 1 to 4 and prednisone 60 mg/m\^2 orally once daily on Days 1 to 4 of each cycle up to Cycle 9. Each treatment cycle was of 6 weeks. After completion of treatment, participants entered follow-up phase and were not started on subsequent anti-myeloma therapy without confirmed disease progression (assessed by the International Myeloma Working Group \[IMWG\] criteria). After implementation of Amendment 7, post interim overall survival (OS) analysis, sponsor confirmation of disease progression was no longer required prior to initiation of subsequent anti-myeloma therapy, except for participants who progressed on VMP arm and requested subsequent therapy with daratumumab.

Daratumumab, Velcade, Melphalan and Prednisone (D-VMP)

Participants received Velcade 1.3 mg/m\^2 as SC injection, twice weekly at Weeks 1, 2, 4 and 5 in Cycle 1 followed by once weekly at weeks 1, 2, 4 and 5 in Cycles 2 to 9, melphalan 9 mg/m\^2, orally once daily on Days 1 to 4 and prednisone 60 mg/m\^2, orally once daily on Days 2 to 4 of each cycle up to Cycle 9. In addition, participants also received daratumumab 16 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) as intravenous (IV) infusion once weekly for 6 weeks in Cycle 1 and then once every 3 weeks in Cycle 2 to 9 and thereafter, once every 4 weeks (post-VMP treatment phase) until documented progression, unacceptable toxicity, or study end. On Day 1 of each cycle, dexamethasone 20 mg IV or per oral (PO) was given 1 hour or less prior to daratumumab infusion as pre-medication and prednisone substitute. Each treatment cycle was of 6 weeks. After implementation of Amendment 7, participants who were ongoing with daratumumab IV treatment were given an option to switch to daratumumab SC injection on Day 1 of any cycle, as per investigator's discretion. After completion of treatment, participants entered follow-up phase and were not started on subsequent anti-myeloma therapy without confirmed disease progression (assessed by IMWG criteria).
