study of pomalidomide, oral dexamethasone and very low-dose cyclophosphamide in patients with refractory multiple myeloma who have received lenalidomide and bortezomib

Conditions: Multiple Myeloma

Summary: clinical trial with a pharmaceutical specialty in a new combination. pomalidomide in combination with dexamethasone is indicated in the treatment of adult patients with multiple treatment-resistant or relapsing myeloma who have received at least two previous treatments, including lenalidomide and bortezomib, and who have experienced a disease progression in the last treatment. the combination of pomalidomide with cyclophosphamide at metronomic doses (very low doses) and dexamethasone is tested in this clinical situation.
