The Incidence of Thromboembolism for Lenalidomide Versus Thalidomide in Older Patients with Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma
Conclusion: In this propensity score weighted study of older patients with newly diagnosed MM, the cumulative incidences of VTE and ATE were similarly high in both lenalidomide- and thalidomide-treatment groups. The lack of difference in overall survival should be interpreted with caution as residual confounding such as severity of disease could influence this outcome. Our results suggest that appropriate risk stratification and vigilant thromboprophylaxis remain essential for MM patients receiving all types of immunomodulatory drugs.DisclosuresGarcia: Retham Technologies LLC: Consultancy; Shingoi: Consultancy; Portola: Re...
