Abstract
- Summary: This open‐label, prospective trial evaluated the combination of ixazomib, cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone (ICD) in 12 newly diagnosed POEMS syndrome patients. The study is registered with the Chinese Clinical Trials Registry (ChiCTR2000030072). The treatment protocol consisted of 12 cycles of the ICD regimen compromising ixazomib (4 mg on Days 1, 8 and 15), oral cyclophosphamide (300 mg on Days 1, 8 and 15) and dexamethasone (20 mg weekly). A total of 12 patients received a median of 10 (range: 3–23) cycles of the ICD regimen. The haematological response could be evaluated in 10 patients. The overall haematological response rate was 80% (8/10), with 30% (3/10) achieving complete haematological response, and the overall serum VEGF response rate and neurological response were 100% and 83.3% respectively. Two patients experienced grade 3/4 AEs, including diarrhoea (n = 1) and leukopenia (n = 1). The combination of ixazomib, cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone demonstrated both efficacy and safety in newly diagnosed POEMS syndrome, making it a viable treatment option. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
