The HAS-RISC Score for Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) Risk Stratification in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Patients Starting Immunomodulatory Drugs (IMID)

Conclusions: We have derived a VTE risk assessment model specifically for patients with MM starting IMID therapy. The HAS-RiSC score combines 7 clinical risk factors - History of VTE, Age 80+, Surgery within last 90 days, Race Black, race Asian, Steroid use, and Chemotherapy - into a simplified VTE risk assessment model that identifies a subgroup of patients at very high risk for VTE. External validation of this risk assessment model is currently in progress.DisclosuresGarcia: Daiichi Sankyo: Research Funding; Incyte: Research Funding; Janssen: Consultancy, Research Funding; Pfizer: Consultancy; Retham Technologies LLC: Consultancy; Shingoi: Consultancy; Portola: Research Funding; Bristol Meyers Squibb: Consultancy; Boehringer Ingelheim: Consultancy.
