What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The occurrence of the events

    The primary outcome is either :

    • early interruption of treatment
    • dose reduction > 20% during treatment
    • discontinuous treatment

    These outcomes will be measured every 6 months during the 2 years of follow up

    Measured: 6 MONTHS

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Type of Vulnerability

    vulnerability related to toxicities, vulnerability related to multiple myeloma or geriatric vulnerability.

    Measured: 6 MONTHS

  2. Therapeutic changes

    early interruption of treatment, dose reduction during treatment, discontinuous treatment

    Measured: 6 MONTHS

  3. Toxicity during treatment

    hematologic toxicity, neurotoxicity, gastrointestinal toxicity, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, infections with antibiotic use

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Progression to 1 and 2 years

    Measured: 1 year/2year

  5. Complete response at 1 and 2 years

    Measured: 1 year/2 years
