About this study
Official title: Bortezomib With Dexamethasone as the First-line Treatment for Immunoglobulin Light Chain(AL) Amyloidosis
Although the use of bortezomib has reported efficacy in amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis, the role of bortezomib with dexamethasone (BD) in the first-line treatment of patients with AL amyloidosis should be determined. In this study, the investigators evaluated the efficacy and safety of BD as the first-line treatment of patients with AL amyloidosis.
Read the detailed description
This study included patients with newly diagnosed AL amyloidosis who were treated with a BD regimen in Jinling hospital. The AL amyloidosis diagnosis was confirmed by renal biopsy, and the assessment of organ involvement were based on consensus criteria. The clinical and laboratory data were collected at the beginning of each cycle and every 3 months thereafter. The initial BD regimen included bortezomib (1.3 mg/m2 i.v.) and dexamethasone (40 mg i.v.) twice weekly for 2 weeks (days 1, 4, 8, and 11), which was followed by a 10-day rest period (days 12-21). The investigators evaluated the efficacy and safety of BD as the first-line treatment of patients with AL amyloidosis.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Hematologic response rate (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
