Optimizing the Treatment of Patients With Multiple Myeloma and Renal Impairment
چکیده انگلیسی
Renal impairment is a common complication of multiple myeloma. It is found in about 20% to 25% of patients at diagnosis and in ≤ 50% at some point during the disease course. The presence of renal insufficiency diminishes patients' quality of life and has been associated with increased mortality, although the outcomes of patients after successful induction therapy have been comparable to those with normal renal function. Therefore, the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma and renal impairment is a major challenge and should aim to achieve remission in a large proportion of patients. New drugs introduced to treat multiple myeloma during the past decade have an established place in the treatment of patients with renal failure. Bortezomib appears to be most beneficial in this setting and, combined with other drugs, provides a chance for rapid remission and related improvement of renal function. Immunomodulatory drugs such as thalidomide and lenalidomide have also been used successfully in patients with renal insufficiency, although for the latter drug appropriate dose adjustments are necessary. The presence of renal failure is not a contraindication to autologous bone marrow transplantation in patients eligible for this procedure. Among the classic cytotoxic agents, bendamustine, in particular, should be considered for patients with renal insufficiency. Appropriate supportive care is also extremely important in the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma and renal failure. It can include plasmapheresis and removal of free light chains with high cut-off hemodialysis, adapted dosages of bisphosphonates, and avoidance of drugs and conditions that can impair renal function.
