Page Background

The addition of adjuvant novel agents to RT, such as proteasome

inhibitors or immunomodulatory drugs (eg, lenalidomide), is a

theoretically attractive approach, both in enhancing local control and

possibly eradicating subclinical disease in patients with SP to prevent

the development of systemic MM

Preliminary data suggest feasibility and effectiveness of a combined

approach

This approach will be under active investigation in the United Kingdom

in a phase 3 study, examining the potential role of lenalidomide with

dexamethasone in improving progression-free survival
