Relapsed and Relapsed/Refractory
Multiple Myeloma
Definitions
Relapsed disease—myeloma that progresses after a period of
remission
Relapsed/refractory disease—myeloma that progresses while on
≥ second-line therapy, or within 60 days of the last therapy
Criteria for progressive myeloma
Increase in monoclonal protein by 25%
New bone lesion
Elevated calcium level
New plasmacytoma
Some patients can just be observed
If the only sign of progression is a rise in monoclonal protein
No other myeloma-related symptoms
Where We’ve Been

Considerations in the Management of
Relapsed/Refractory Myeloma
Initial therapy (e.g., use of novel agents, prior ASCT)
Initial treatment options are changing
Many patients are receiving novel agents as part of initial therapy
Duration of benefit of initial therapy
Disease-related features
Biology of myeloma (e.g., cytogenetics)
Patient-related features (e.g. diabetes, peripheral
neuropathy, renal failure)
Treatment-related features (toxicity profile, rapidity of
response)
Availability of novel agent
“Traditional” Canadian
Approach to Relapsed/Refractory MM

Time to Progression

Repeat
M+P
Reutilization of Initial Therapy
Relapsed/Refractory Myeloma
Repeat oral alkylator therapy in elderly patients
MP if first remission ≥1 year1
Oral weekly cyclophosphamide (500mg) + alternate day
prednisone (50-100 mg)—easier on the blood counts2
Repeat ASCT3
PMH policy: Consider if benefit of first ASCT ≥ 2 years4
NO data on MP—too hard on blood counts
Oral cyclophosphamide + prednisone can be considered5

Important Questions
Management of Relapsed/Refractory Myeloma
What is the best therapy for recurrent myeloma in
patients given novel agents at diagnosis?
Can alkylating agents like MP or cyclophosphamide +
prednisone be used after MPT, VMP or lenalidomide +
dex given as first line therapy?
How effective is repeating the same novel agent?
How well does lenalidomide work after bortezomib and
vice versa?
If lenalidomide is used as maintenance, can the dose
be increased and dex added at relapse
Should novel agents be used in combination or
sequentially in relapsed/refractory myeloma?
What is the Optimal Strategy for
Relapsed Myeloma?

What is the optimal therapy in patients relapsing
after more effective induction regimens?
Minimal data available for treatment of relapse after VMP, MPT
or lenalidomide + dexamethasone in transplant ineligible
patients
No data on second salvage transplants after novel agents
integrated into induction therapy + ASCT
No data on the efficacy of ASCT deferred to the time of first
relapse after first-line therapy with lenalidomide + dex or novel
3- and 4-drug regimens
Upcoming new drugs/combinations likely will be key to
prolonging survival
Drugs under evaluation for “unmet medical need”
Pomalidomide + dex
Bortezomib + HDAC inhibitors

*Other agents were used as subsequent therapy, including dexamethasone; patients could receive
multiple-agent regimens.
** Single-agent use: 36% bortezomib, 37% thalidomide, 14% lenalidomide
Patients relapsing after VMP are not intrinsically more resistant than after using MP

Treatment of Relpased/Refractory
Multiple Myeloma-(1)
Many options/combinations
May repeat initial therapy in selected patients
Combinations with novel agents produce high
overall and complete response rates—effect on
PFS awaited
Bortezomib and lenalidomide/dex can be
effective in patients with t(4;14)
New targeted agents available in phase I-II trials
Most people eventually receive all of the
effective drugs for different relapses
Treatment of Relapsed/Refractory
Multiple Myeloma-(2)
Selection of therapy depends on many factors
Therapy can be optimized for patients with renal
impairment/failure
Rapid anti-tumor responses observed with bortezomib
regimens
Good safety profile for bortezomib and thalidomide
Growing experience with lenalidomide
Therapy can be individualized for patients with
peripheral neuropathy, decreased marrow reserve and
steroid intolerance
Use of novel agents has improved survival after
myeloma relapse
