摘要
This retrospective analysis aimed to establish the overall cardiac safety profile of bortezomib using patient-level data from one phase 2 and seven phase 3 studies in previously untreated and relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM). Seven clinically relevant primary [congestive heart failure (CHF), arrhythmias, ischaemic heart disease (IHD), cardiac death] and secondary (hypertension, dyspnoea, oedema) cardiac endpoints were defined based on MedDRA v16.0 preferred terms. 2509 bortezomib-treated patients and 1445 patients in non-bortezomib-based control arms were included. The incidence of grade >= 3 CHF was 1.3-4.0% in studies in relapsed/refractory MM and 1.2-4.7% in previously untreated MM (2.0-7.6% all grades), with no significant differences between bortezomib- and non-bortezomibbased arms in comparative studies. Incidences of arrhythmias (1.3-5.9% grade >= 2; 0.6-4.1% grade >= 3), IHD (1.2-2.9% all grades; 0.4-2.7% grade >= 3) and cardiac death (0-1.4%) were low, with no differences between bortezomib-based and non-bortezomib-based arms. Higher rates of oedema (mostly grade 1/2) were seen in bortezomib-based versus non-bortezomibbased arms in one study and a pooled transplant study analysis. Logistic regression analyses of comparative studies showed no impact on cardiac risk with bortezomib-based versus non-bortezomib-based treatment. Bortezomib-based treatment was associated with low incidences of cardiac events.
