Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Overall Response Rate After 4 Cycles of Velcade Treatment
ORR defined as the proportion of participants who achieve either complete response [CR], very good partial response [VGPR], or partial response [PR], according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria. Participants with CR, VGPR, or PR that is unconfirmed in Cycle 4 but confirmed in the next response assessment will be included as CR, VGPR or PR, respectively.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Complete Response (CR) and Very Good Partial Response (VGPR) after 4 cycles
CR and VGPR defined as the proportion of participants who achieve either complete response [CR] or very good partial response [VGPR], according to the IMWG criteria, after 4 cycles of Velcade treatment. Participants with CR or VGPR that is unconfirmed in Cycle 4 but further confirmed in the next response assessment will be included.
Overall Response Rate (ORR) after 8 cycles
ORR is defined as the proportion of participants who achieve either CR, VGPR, or PR according to the IMWG criteria, after 8 cycles of Vd treatment. Participants with CR, VGPR or PR that is unconfirmed in Cycle 8 but further confirmed in the next response assessment will be included.
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of first documented progressive disease/disease progression (PD), or death due to any cause, whichever occurs earlier. Participants who have not progressed and are alive on the cut-off date for analysis will be censored at the date of the last clinical assessment of response.
One-year survival rate
One-year survival rate is defined as survival rate at 1 year after randomization. If a participant is alive or the vital status is unknown, then data will be censored at the date that the participant is last known to be alive.
Time to response
Time to response is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documentation of a confirmed CR, VGPR, or PR. Participants without response (CR/VGPR/PR) will be censored either at PD or at the last clinical assessment of response.
Time to progression (TTP)
Time to progression is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of first documentation of PD. Participants who have not progressed will be censored at the date of the last clinical assessment of response.
Duration of response (DOR)
Duration of response is defined as the time from the date of first documentation of a confirmed CR, VGPR, or PR (overall cycles) to the date of first documented PD. Responders without PD will be censored at the date of the last clinical assessment of response.
Time to best response
Time to best response is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first evaluation of the overall best response (CR/VGPR/PR) to treatment. Participants without response (CR/VGPR/PR) will be censored either at PD or at the last clinical assessment of response.
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)
Drug concentration vs. time profile following the 4th dose in Cycle 1 and derived Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameter Cmax will be assessed. Cmax is the observed maximum plasma concentration, taken directly from the plasma concentration-time profile.
Area Under the Plasma ConcentrationTime Curve From Time 0 to Last Observed Quantifiable Concentration AUC [0-last]
Drug concentration vs. time profile following the 4th dose in Cycle 1 and derived Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameter AUC [0-last] will be assessed. AUC [0-last] is the area under the plasma-concentration versus time curve from time 0 to the time of last quantifiable time point, calculated by linear trapezoidal summation.
Time to Reach Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax)
Drug concentration vs. time profile following the 4th dose in Cycle 1 and derived Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameter Tmax will be assessed. Tmax is the time when Cmax is observed, taken directly from the plasma concentration-time profile.
Number of Participants with Treatment-Related Adverse Events and Serious Treatment-Related Adverse Events
Number of Participants with adverse events will be assessed using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE), Version 4.0.3 and also vital signs, clinical laboratory tests, local injection site tolerability, and electrocardiograms (ECGs) will be assessed.
