ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of ixazomib-based therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed on the efficacy and adverse reactions of 53 RRMM patients treated with a combined regimen containing ixazomib in the Hematology Department of Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from July 8, 2018 to November 30, 2020. Among them, 6 patients received ID regimen (ixazomib + dexamethasone), 30 patients received ID regimen + immunomodulator, and 17 patients received ID regimen + other chemotherapy drugs.ResultsFifty-three patients with RRMM received ixazomib-based therapy. The median previous treatment line was 3, the median treatment course was 6 (2-30), and the median follow-up time was 21 months (2-32 months). The overall response rate (ORR) was 54.7% (29/53) after 2 courses of treatment. Among them, 26.4% (14/53) had very good partial response (VGPR) and 28.3% (15/53) had partial response (PR). The ORR of the ID regimen group, ID regimen + immunomodulator group and ID regimen + other chemotherapy group were 83.3% (5/6), 56.7% (17/30) and 41.2% (7/17) respectively, with no statistically significant difference among the three groups (P=0.208). The median time to progression (TTP) of 53 patients was 8 months (1-24 months). The most frequent adverse events of ixazomib treatment were gastrointestinal reactions such as nausea, vomit and diarrhea, with an incidence of 37.7% (20/53), and the incidence of grade 3-4 was 5.7% (3/53). The most common hematological adverse events were thrombocytopenia (15.1%, 8/53), neutropenia (11.3%, 6/53) and anemia (9.4%, 5/53). Grade 1-2 peripheral neurotoxicity occurred in only 7.5% (4/53) of patients.ConclusionIxazomib has good efficacy and safety for the patients with RRMM in the real world.
