Brief Summary

Bortezomib was an important drug in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM),and peripheral neuropathy (PN) is a significant dose-limiting toxicity of bortezomib that typically occurs within the first courses of bortezomib, reaches a plateau at cycle 5. Up to now, no effective prophylaxis have been developed for PN. Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside, a nerve-protecting drug,was often used to promote growth of nerve, and function restoration of damaged nerve.Thus,the investigators hypothesized that combination of Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside and bortezomib can reduce the incidence rate of peripheral neuropathy (PN) and promote the relief of peripheral neuropathy (PN) in multiple myeloma (MM) patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • overall incidence rate of peripheral neuropathy (PN)

    the grade of peripheral neuropathy (PN) was recorded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v3.0.

    up to 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • duration of peripheral neuropathy (PN)

    up to 1 year (about 6 months after the completion of treatment)

  • complete rate (CR) rate

    up to 6 months

Study Arms (1)

Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside

EXPERIMENTAL

each patient in this arm received velcade+dexamethasone (VD) regimen(bortezomib,1.3mg/㎡,subcutaneously injection,d1,8,15,22;dexamethasone,20mg d1-2, 8-9,15-16,22-23)every 4 weeks; and monosialotetrahexosylganglioside was used at the dosage of 100mg/d intravenously at d1-2,8-9,15-16,22-23 every cycle.

Drug: Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside

Interventions

Also known as: bortezomib, dexamethasone
Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside
