Johnson & Johnson Research Report
On December 9, 2013, Johnson & Johnson's subsidiary, Janssen-Cilag International NV announced that new data, presented at the 55th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Hematology (ASH), continue to reinforce VELCADE's® (bortezomib) role as the backbone of multiple myeloma treatment. According to the Company, the data shows the survival benefits of higher cumulative dose levels of VELCADE, exhibits significantly improved response rates and disease progression when used in combination with dexamethasone, and demonstrates its association with low rates of cardiotoxicity. Professor Maria-Victoria Mateos, Consultant Physician of the Haematology Department at the University Hospital of Salamanca, Spain and Lead Investigator on a study assessing higher dose levels of bortezomib (ASH abstract 1968), said, "Bortezomib is at the core of many multiple myeloma treatment regimens, yet our understanding of how best to use it, and its full potential, continues to grow. The association between higher cumulative dose levels of bortezomib and increased overall survival in multiple myeloma patients receiving VELCADE-melphalan-prednisone is another important potential step towards wider use of optimal treatment regimes. As our understanding of the efficacy and safety of bortezomib develops so does our ability to extend and improve the lives of patients with multiple myeloma."
