Abstract:ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effect of low dose Thalidomide combined with VED chemotherapy in the treatment of elderly patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.Methods82 elderly patients with newly multiple myeloma in our hospital from July 2011 to June 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group,41 cases in each group.The control group was treated with standard VED regimen chemotherapy, the experimental group was treated with low-dose Thalidomide combined with standard dose chemotherapy of VED.The total effective rate,the incidence rate of adverse reaction,Karnofsky score after treatment,hemoglobin index,bone marrow plasma cell count,and serum M protein were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe total effective rate of the experimental group was 85.37%,which was higher than 63.41%of the control group,with significant difference(P<0.05). The number of bone marrow plasma cells and serum M protein after treatment in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group,the Karnofsky score and hemoglobin after treatment in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group,with significant difference (P<0.05).The incidence rate of constipation and mild sleepiness in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group,with significant difference (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of the rest adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).After treatment, the patient′s symptoms of mild sleepiness and constipation were significantly alleviated,which did not affect the treatment.ConclusionFor elderly patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma,the application of low dose Thalidomide combined with chemotherapy is safe and effective,were well tolerated,with good clinical feasibility,it is worthy of further promotion and application.
