Study Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) of once-weekly carfilzomib dosing in combination with dexamethasone to twice-weekly carfilzomib dosing in combination with dexamethasone in adults with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma, previously treated with bortezomib and an immunomodulatory agent (IMiD).

Primary Outcome

Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from randomization to the earlier of disease progression or death due to any cause. Disease status was assessed at a central laboratory with serum and urine protein electrophoresis, immunofixation, serum-free light chain (SFLC) assay, bone marrow sample evaluation, serum calcium, plasmacytoma evaluation, and skeletal survey. Response and disease progression were determined using a validated computer algorithm based on the International Mye
