PURPOSE : To provide evidence-based recommendations on the treatment of multiple myeloma to practicing physicians and others.
METHODS : ASCO and Cancer Care Ontario convened an Expert Panel of medical oncology, surgery, radiation oncology, and advocacy experts to conduct a literature search, which included systematic reviews, meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials, and some phase II studies published from 2005 through 2018. Outcomes of interest included survival, progression-free survival, response rate, and quality of life. Expert Panel members used available evidence and informal consensus to develop evidence-based guideline recommendations.
RESULTS : The literature search identified 124 relevant studies to inform the evidence base for this guideline.
RECOMMENDATIONS : Evidence-based recommendations were developed for patients with multiple myeloma who are transplantation eligible and those who are ineligible and for patients with relapsed or refractory disease.
