Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is Carfilzomib a safe drug to take on a weekly basis?

"Carfilzomib once-weekly is a Phase 3 trial drug, meaning that while there is some data supporting efficacy, multiple rounds of data must support safety in order for it to receive a high score. Our team at Power rates it as a 3."

Who would be an eligible candidate for this clinical trial?

"454 individuals with plasma cell neoplasms between the ages of 18 and 99 are eligible for this clinical trial. To meet the requirements for this study, patients must have received previous treatment with a lenalidomide and dexamethasone containing regimen (as long as the subject did not progress during the first 3 months after initiating lenalidomide and dexamethasone containing therapy), Multiple myeloma with documented relapse or progression after most recent myeloma treatment (subjects refractory to the most recent line of therapy are eligible, unless last treatment contained proteasome inhibitor (PI) or lenalidomide"
