SUMMIT indicates Study of Uncontrolled Multiple Myeloma managed with proteasome Inhibition Therapy; Btz, bortezomib; dex, dexamethasone; DOR, duration of response; CREST, Clinical Response and Efficacy Study of bortezomib in the Treatment of relapsing multiple myeloma; and APEX, Assessment of Proteasome inhibition for Extending remissions.

*

Bortezomib dosed at 1.3 mg/m2 (or 1.0 mg/m2 where stated) on days 1, 4, 8, and 11 for 8 21-day cycles. In APEX/the IFM/EBMT studies, patients could also receive three 5-week/four 6-week cycles of bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, 15, and 22.

More than or equal to PR unless stated.
